I taught many adults and kids to make pretty scrapbook pages and mini albums with certain supplies (yawn). I tried so hard to make sure they understood that they didn’t need a ruler and they didn’t need to copy me. For the most part, they wanted to follow step by step instructions while I always hoped to be more of a guide and an inspiration. I remember one time a mom came in to pick up her child at a day camp I was doing and after seeing the fabulous piece that her daughter had made and the mom was miffed. She wanted the girl to copy me, not to watch and learn and talk about choices and then make her own decisions… that was hard for me to see. I did put my $.02 in but scrapbooking wasn’t my niche, just a fork in the road.
