Scrap-booking is a popular hobby among women, teens and girls these days. Sometimes, even boys and men also like to get involved in simple scrapbook styles or collections of photo albums. There are some great places to find great scrap-booking supplies including online and at many discount or craft stores. For some girls, their favorite theme is Disney Princesses. There are even some women who are utterly obsessed with Disneyland and it's princess contemporaries and want to make scrapbooks of their Disneyland escapades and Disney vacations.
The first place to start with your Disney princess scrapbook is the book itself. Ask yourself, do you want a 3 ring binder with archival page protectors in it or do you want a special vintage or new archival album. Archival means that it is acid free and that the paper or plastic will not eat through your paper or document. You will want to make sure that you have acid free glue, tape, stickers and any other items you use in your Disney album should be archival or acid free.
Now, what should you put in your album? Disneyland photos with your favorite princess and dressed as she is, tickets, pins, souvenirs, and photos with princesses would be perfect for your album or binder. You can make each souvenir be part of the design to make it extra special. Sometimes even napkins, menus, autograph items and other things are fun additions for your Disney princess scrapbook pages. Many people like to type up memories.
Next organize your princess items into groups. One group for each page. For example, if you want photos, pins and a placard on one page, put that in a group with your matching scrapbooking papers and other embellishments like stamps, stencils, markers and other items. Page protectors help you keep your pages organized and neat and ready for you to complete your princess pages in your own time.
After your scrapbook is finished, what should you do with it? You need to make sure to preserve it for yourself and also for others. Kids love to look through their parents memories. To keep it safe and ready to share from generation to generation, you could scan each page and save it to your computer or to a CD. This is also a good way to share your scrapbook. You can email it to your friends and family or fellow vacationers. You can also make an extra copy and file it away with other heirlooms.
Great ways to display your new Disney princess scrapbook are to put it in a visible location. Scrapbooks make great coffee table books and discussion pieces, especially if it is in a beautifully decorated notebook or binder. Scrapbooks can be a good conversation starter as lots of people like to get ideas and find good places to go. Most everyone loves Disneyland and your scrapbook can help tell the story of your vacation or other event in your life. It is also fun to do scrapbooks of your kids lives, births, blessings, christenings, school years, and other themed books. Whether it is princesses or pirates, your kids and you will enjoy looking at your scrapbook for years to come. They may even be passed from generation to generation some day!

Create Whimsical Holiday Decorations With Dolls
Doll enthusiasts often show their carefully assembled collections with pride in special cases, or leave them packed away for safekeeping... but why not bring out dolls from behind the glass this holiday and show them off? This season is all about magic, and dolls embody the childlike wonder that we all try to recapture at this time of year. It is a wonderful time to display your favorite dolls in new and beautiful ways.
One fun way to get ready for the holidays is dressing your dolls up for the season! There are many doll makers that also make gorgeous costumes and clothing for 18" dolls, and even tiny jewelry and crowns. Choosing rich, vibrant colors paired with gold and silver can turn doll displays into royal holiday celebrations.
Another unique holiday idea could involve special costumes with wings that instantaneously transform dolls into lovely angels or fairies. Placing them on a doll stand amidst a winter floral arrangement can be a perfect centerpiece for a table, or a stunning mantelpiece.
With some patience and creativity, you can create all kinds of holiday scenes using dolls. Using purchased or handmade accessories, you could show dolls participating in your most-loved holiday traditions. Dolls could decorate a doll-sized tree, play in fake snow or make a snowman. They could also light a kinera, a Yule log, a menorah, or even play with a dreidel. How about a doll nativity set? No matter which winter celebrations you take part in, dolls can be a part of your decor.
Many people spend hours elaborately decorating beautiful holiday trees, only to stack presents under them any old way. A special under-the-tree arrangement can set yours apart. Artfully wrapped gifts with large, pretty bows under the tree interspersed with dolls and perhaps other toys, such as teddy bears, can make for a whimsical, old-fashioned display that will add that extra touch to your tree.
You can use smaller arrangements of dolls and toys throughout the room to pull your décor theme together, perhaps tucking a doll and a bear into the corner of an antique chair. Just be sure to place dolls in safe locations where they won't be sat upon or damaged! Remember that your dolls will draw children's attention especially, and they are likely to touch or play with the ones in their reach. Keep this in mind when selecting locations for your treasures.
Decorating with dolls should be fun, and what could be more fun than setting up a scene for a daughter, granddaughter or niece including the doll that will be her present? Having the doll sitting at a tea party, or ready to ride away on the girl's bicycle, could be a scene that will bring a smile to her face when she wakes up and sees it in the morning.
Your unique holiday decor is likely to be a conversation starter, and could serve as a way to get others interested in doll collecting. Children and adults alike will love the whimsy and the beauty of your displays, and appreciate your willingness to share your beautiful dolls in such a wonderful way.

Doll Display Cases, Where can i get one?
I have an American Girl (18inches) and two porcelain dolls (24inches), I've been looking all over to display cases but there either not tall enough or on the rather expensive side. I don't want anything cheap and crappy but I don't want to spend a ton either.
I think I saw some in a craft store like Michaels or A.C. Moore.
