I think I'm going to do pocket pages this year for my Project Life album. I scrap 12x12, I'm wordy and have a lot to say. I just want to try pocket pages this year and see if I get more done that way. What do you peas find is the best quality album and page protectors for 12x12 pocket pages? Thanks in advance!!

I like the Becky Higgins albums and frequently find them on Zulily much cheaper than stores/her website. I also like her page protectors, but also have bought Doodlebug brand, American Crafts, or WRMK - all of which I buy on Amazon. I don't even mind the whatever-brand that Hobby Lobby sells, and then you can get them 40% off.
There was one fairly well-known brand that was selling at Tuesday Morning, about a year and a half ago. I stocked up like crazy on page protectors - only to get them home and find that their 4 x 6 slots were actually more like 3.75 x 6. I ended up throwing them out b/c there was no way I was cutting everything down to fit. Might have been MAMBI? I can't recall.

I have a mix of BH and WRMK albums. I use page protectors from everyone really. They all mix and match just fine together.

If you have a Tuesday Morning in your area, they have had a slew of WRMK page protectors on sale for $1.99.

I definitely recommend WRMK over the Becky Higgins page protectors. The WRMK aren't as flimsy and thin and they seem to hold up better in my experience.
Echo Park and Simple Stories also sell pocket page protectors. I like those also because they are much thicker than the BH pages.

Also thank you for the Zulily tip.

I'm seeing, on both this thread and other places, that BH and WRMK are favorites. Are there any page protector brands that you thought were just awful, or do you pretty much use them all?

You are OK with the BH albums, but not the page protectors?

The Hobby Lobby page protectors have an extra little space on them that makes them wider than the rest of the page protectors I have used.
