SPECIAL MEMORIES IN THE NOOK - PART 1 - IN THE BEGINNING

THIS IS A TEMPORARY VERSION OF THIS BLOG ENTRY

When I have time, I will be scanning in the pages from the album and making the poems more readable online.

SPECIAL MEMORIS IN THE NOOK - THE EARLY YEARS


1999-2002



THIS IS MY MEMORY ALBUM OF THE NOOK









IT ALL BEGAN WITH A VISIT TO MEMORY JUNCTION IN PEWAUKEE, WI
(Sadly the store is now closed.)




A FRIEND BECAME A CREATIVE MEMORIES CONSULTANT AND I HOSTED HER FIRST EVENT. LATER I BECAME A CONSULTANT FOR A SHORT TIME.








WHEREVER WE HAVE LIVED, IF THERE WERE SCRAPBOOKING OR CRAFT STORES, I HAVE TAKEN WOMEN TO THEM!











THE NOOK HAS BEEN A PLACE WHERE STUDENTS COULD WORK ON SCHOOL PROJECTS AS WELL AS A PLACE TO ARCHIVE MEMORIES!


















SOMETIMES WE WOULD TAKE A SPECIAL CLASS OR ATTEND A SCRAPBOOKING CONVENTION.













I ACCOMPANIED MIKE TO A WORK CONFERENCE IN SALT LAKE CITY. I RENTED A CAR AND VISITED MANY SCRAPBOOKING SHOPS IN THAT AREA!




MIKE SAYS I HAVE RADAR THAT CAN SENSE A SCRAPBOOKING STORE 
WHEREVER I GO!






























ONE OF MY FONDEST MEMORIES WAS WORKING WITH MARION. SHE CAME TO THE NOOK WANTING TO CREATE AN ALBUM FOR HER GRANDDAUGHTER. MARION WAS VERY INTIMIDATED BY THE PROCESS AT FIRST. BUT AFTER A FEW VISITS TO THE NOOK SHE GAINED A LOT OF SKILLS AND A GREAT DEAL OF CONFIDENCE!
