Exclamation Scrapbook Ideas

Hey Everyone,
I'm going to be teaching a scrapbooking class at a camp and I wanted to know or learn how to make scrapbook albums by hand. I know there's one that is made from lunch bags and another that is done soroff like a signature booklet. Does anyone have any idea where I can find out on how to do it? Or any other ideas on how to make home-made booklets? I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

Isai

It's not a paperbag album, but my friends and I worked on this one and it turned out beautifully.

Paperbag books are easy, cheap, and fun for kids (and me too). Lunch bags come in different sizes. I bought a 1000 from Costco for $10, but I don't think they have them anymore. They are 13" long and 6" wide. I cut them down to 12" so it will fit a 6"x12" piece of pattern paper on the cover. The open pockets on the sides are great for adding pull out pages. Depending on the age, there is another bag book to store artwork using the large grocery bags that are 12" wide and I guess about 16" long. I cut down the bags to make a 12" square and then I use Chipboard for the cover. The pockets are large enough to store a child's artwork. It's a great way to show children about recycling the big grocery bags.
