I was looking at my shelf that has my completed books on them, and I realized that the I hardly ever actually look through my scrapbooks once they are full and put away.
Am I the only one? |

I go through my scrapbooks often, but not all of them. I generally look through the one I am working on. Everytime I add more layouts I have to look through the whole book.
I love looking at my books, but I have like almost 100 and some of them are shoved on shelves that make it hard to pull them to look at them. Someday I'd love to have shelves just for my scrapbooks so I could sit and look at them easily anytime I want.

I look at mine pretty regularly. I love looking at the completed pages.

Not very often. But they will be there when DH and I are in the 'old folks home' and we look through them and say "Remember when....?"

I don't scrap chronologically so I go through them every so often to put the completed layouts away in chronological order.

Not as often I should/would like to. Once in a while I'll get in a mood and spend the afternoon looking thru a bunch of them.

I look at them pretty often. My kids love them and show everyone who come into the house! LOL And every time I look again.  |

I like to glance through them about once or twice every year, just to see if my style has changed at all.

I look through the one I'm currently adding pages to when I have a chance to scrap, and the other ones when DD asks to read "my stories" which is every once in a while.

I look through ours a couple of times a year, my daughter more often.

One year I went crazy @ Christmas & scanned all of my layouts. I had them printed as 6x6's and put them in mini albums for my kids. They look at them at least monthly.

I also don't look through my albums much. but this week I'm trying out some new styles / techniques by lifting other designers (already made 12 LOs) and loved looking through my pages everyday, seeing how different these layouts look to my normal ones.

We typically pull out the first year albums on birthdays. I would say the kids and I go through them once a year (the rest of the albums that is)

I look through mine on occasion, but not too often - now my mini books I look at rather frequently, I love that they tell a whole complete story.

My grandchildren are looking at their books today. The 3 YO was excited to find a picture of his doctor in the newborn nursery. He recognized him because he had just been to see him for a check up.

I usually look through my albums when I put my latest album away. I also look through my Disney album regularly, because it's my favorite. The only album I don't look through a lot is my daughters album because it is kept in her room, but yesterday I was putting away some layouts and looked through it, it was so fun! It's "complete" I have a WRMK album that's currently holding 80 layouts so I will need to buy another album.

On holidays like Easter, Christmas, Fourth of July, I have the album for that topic out in the family room so that everyone...including me...takes a look!

Not very often except for whatever album I happen to be working on at the time. But when I do look through them I fall in love with them all over again and I am glad I haven't seen them in a long time. Every page is like a surprise!

Considering the time and money that has gone into them: definitely not often enough!

I don't look through my books often enough! I tend to pull them out when I have someone new to show them to (generally my best friend or my aunts).

My daughter goes through these phases where she just flips through the books and wants me to tell her more of the stories (more than the journalling of course!). I move them to a shelf where she can flip thru them anytime (she's 7 so no busting it up.). When she spends half the morning going through them it motivated me to do more

I look at mine a few times a year, I need to get them off the top shelf and in a place that they are more accessible.

About once a week one of us will pull out a scrapbook and look through it. It makes me happy to see them show interest on their own. It's so relaxing to me to look through a scrapbook and let the memories flow.

I have separate albums (ds, dd, family, my side, his side, us). I generally go through ds & dd albums in their birthday month. Then I tend to go through them as I put finished layouts away, which I typically only do 1 to 2x a year. But my kids will pull them off the shelf much more frequently.
