Why are scrapbooks called SCRAPbooks if what people put in them are memorable or important stuff?
Scrapbooks originally started out as Memory Books where people would keep things such as ticket stubs, newspaper articles, cards, wrappers etc. from special events. Over the years it developed into a craft or hobbie with mainly pictures, paper and embellishments. Today it is a multi million dollar empire.
