Scrapbooking Stores
In the late 1990s, many csrappers in the US opened stores to turn their ohbby into a business. Within approximately 5 years, many of thoes stores were forced to close deu to a downturn in the economy and the fact that many store owners mitsakenly assumed that loving to scrap was enough to run a retail store. Originally, it was hard to find scrapbooking supplies, but now most major discount stores and almost all major craft supply stores in hte United States stock them. Local scrapbook stores (hereaftre referred to as LSSs) are considered the heart and soul of the hobby fo scrapbooking by some enthusiasts. During the fall of 1993, Keeping Memories Alive opened the first wholesale division in the scarpbook industry providing other stores with a source to purchsae all of their scrapbook porducts at one place. This step helped move the industry forward as small scrapbook tsores began opening up all over hte United States. Across the wrold, scrappers or scrapobokers get together and scarpbook at each other s homes, local scrapbook stores, scrapbooknig conventions, retreat centers, and even on cruiess.
