Hello Scrapbook friends,
It's been a long, long time since I touched any paper scrapbooking, but I've come in search of ideas/suggestions from a group of people I know will have some.
I was very lucky, and still have a roof over my head after Irma. One of my close friends was not so lucky. One of the things she is most upset about are her photos/baby albums. They were submerged in water, after some significant flooding. The pages of the albums are stuck together. My question is, what is the best way to go about trying to assess the damage and the best way to try and dry out the ones that are still damp? I'm thinking pulling the pages apart is not the best idea? I don't want to do further damage, and before I go googling, I was hoping someone could guide me in the right direction. Just trying to save the photos if possible.
Thank you so very much in advance! I know this may seem so small/trivial, but I'm trying to find some light at the end of this very long tunnel if I can.
