I know this is a long video, but I tried to do it as brief as possible.
This is an old video (quality is crap), and I believe I made a mistake or two since it had been so long since I’d made one.
Basic needs:
Scissors
Photo album
Fabric
Batting
Cardstock or poster board
Hot glue gun & glue sticks
Lace
Ribbon
Embellishments
Time.
Once it is done, you have a beautiful, custom made photo album. I’ve made them for weddings, baby books, and even recipe books (if you use the iron on vinyl, it makes them waterproof on the outside). Use your imagination–let it go wild 🙂
What you can expect to find on CookingAndCrafting:
* A family-friendly, relaxed, welcoming atmosphere where quick, easy and delicious meals/desserts are demonstrated.
* HUMOR! I am not afraid to laugh at myself or make mistakes. You get everything–the good, the bad, the failures!
* Links to blogs or websites where the recipes are found. Please visit these sites and show them your support!

Tammy and I have been friends for many years and met here on YouTube! Since then we have met up in real life many times. You will LOVE her tutorials and learn how to decorate cupcakes better than most bakeries do. She lives in Canada, but I really wish she lived next door.
k tutoring was so excellent
EXCELLENT TUTORIAL!!! Thank you so much for being thorough in your instructions.
I have an elderly aunt that needs one of these.
Have a blessed day
nice
NICE! I can’t wait to try this
I just watched your tutorial on how to make a photo album. Very well done. Thank you!
Thank You so much, your video is awesome and your photo albums are beautiful, You have made it do easy and Thank you for not babbling on on and on about nothing, just doing what you said you wer going to do you did not make it long and drawn out. I AM OFF TO GET SOME SUPPLY S I have one daughter having baby in August an another getting good Married in October, So I want to make them each something special, so thanks again
Hey!! I loved your video! My mom used to make these and I've always been curious as to how she did it. What's the average cost of making one of these albums? If I'm starting from scratch with no materials
Thank you so much. I have despaired of finding a tutorial for a fabric covered photo album but your's is great. And thank you for not wasting video time with conversation about your friend's dog's best friend's cousin being sick and that's why it took you so long to get around to making the video. Too many of those on YT. Hate to sound ugly but watching a 10 minute video with only 3 minutes worth of actual tutorial is frustrating. Your to-the-point delivery is perfect. I've subbed, liked, joined etc. TFS!
I would like to make a home made photo album. Does it matter what kind of glue gun I use and should it be low or high temp? Also, do you know of any masculine looking album cover ideas? I plan on making 10 of these for our grandchildren, 2 are boys. thank you, Mary
The one you did is easier than the one I did in high school. Thanks for sharing.
I just made one! Thank you so much. I am going to use it as a recipe book. Just need to find inserts. Had trouble with lace on corners. Next time should be easier. I can't wait to make another one.
Nice! Thanks so much for the tutorial.
what do u do if the album already has the front picture on it?
Thank you so much! wonderful tutorial easy to follow. As a matter of fact, Today I went to find one to give as a gift, but no sucess. I will try yours!! Thanks once again
Tanu
Could you use fleece fabric?
Thank you this is great!
Thank you SO much for sharing. You made it look so simple! I thought i was going to have to whip out a sewing machine and needles to do mine. My mom had this cute fabric & laced baby photo album set for me. Well, I'm expecting and want the same thing for my baby. Fabric photo albums are so hard to find across and when u do find them they're so expensive. Thanks again!
Thanks for a great tutorial. I made these years ago but forgot so many details and you provided what I needed to make a little grandson happy. Off to finish covering the frame and gluing it on and then into the mail it goes! Thanks again!!
I love this… I recived one of these but it was the large photo album . I recived one when my oldest daughter was born over 20 years ago. Now she is due to have her on baby so I will be making her one and giving it to her at her baby shower… Thanks so much for showing how to do this….
Oh it is great to find this tutorial; you did a nice album there!! I will do one one my own soon following this instructions!. Thank you and congratulations!.Â
Thanks so much for posting this tutorial I used to make these years ago and forgot how and with a new niece or nephew on the way, I want to make a baby photo album as a gift!!! Now I can! Thanks again
My mom use to make all of her baby albums like this and now I want to make one in memory of her. since she has passed I want to give an album decorated just like how she would like to my sisters and my brother because we miss her dearly. thank you for your video it helps me figure out how she did her magic and also why there was so much glue sticks all round the house 🙂
Thank you so much for this video! My mom always made photo albums for all of the family, my brother and I each have one. And 20 years later, my mom made one for my daughter, but now that she has passed away, and I'm pregnant again, I'm making one on my own for my son! So glad I found this video, it's so helpful!!
I hope your auntie loves her album 🙂
Thank you beautiful!! my auntie use to make these for people when she was young so now I have a chance to make one for her and it turned out beautiful!! thank you so much for sharing :)))))
Very well done, explained and executed. Appreciated the no long gaps or ummms. You narrate very well.
Thank you thank you very much for this video is very useful and helpful for me, i want to make on my own a wish book for my wedding and this video its just like what i want!!!!!!
Thank you very much and congratulations from Greece!!!!!
I don't find it overly long since you did show everything. Speeding up the camera helped after we knew what to do. Yours is the only video that shows how to do everything completely. If you do re-do it, please don't cut out any part.
This is the most helpful video on the subject that I've seen.
I have msgd on facebook..:) Please check your other inbox.
Is there any way I can share with you what I made? Just wanted to say thanks again, your tutorial was very helpful…Everybody loved what I made.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I so needed this for my next project, to make a fabric file.:)
Love your hot glue gun & holder ! Where did you get that? I do a lot of crafts & that is great ! I'm always Catching my glue gun falling on the floor, stick'n to the carpet, lol, and I'm always fighting with the extension cord and pulling it out of the wall ! lol I want one like yours !
Thank You So Much ! I always wanted to make one and I've seen people buy them for a lot of money ! Awesome! I can't wait to make this for my mom for Mother's Day! Some folks are set in there ways and don't like or want a digital camera and like sharing stories & look'n at photos.. If you have a digital camera then you still can do this project for Shutter Fly Digital Camera books that are printed from digital photos but ;they also cost a lot so Protect the cover with this Great Idea ! 🙂
Showed my mom this video and she really likes it and she began doing photo albums a couple of years ago and when she saw this video she got some inspiration to make her photo albums more upgraded like the one in the video
It's nice to know actually printing photos – well developing photos (as they called it when I was growing up) is coming back! I STOPPED making these about 10 years ago when the digital camera was born… These were always one of my favorite and they make awesome gifts! Thanks for doing this video as I forgot some of the steps that were involved!
I was glad to find this! I am making small album for my grandaughters for Christmas!. I had made one for my daughter 18 years ago, but forgot what I did! This was a great and complete tutorial, thanks for assisting me on this project!
Loertta.
wow! you are so creative! i like your vids! keep it up!
What size photo album did you use on this video and where did you buy it? I have not been able to find one like that.
Do you know to do this with an album that has screws?
Awesome! Thanks!
Is there any certain kind of hot glue you need to make sure it stays together since you are using it on fabric?
liked it before the lace much better. but still genius idea!
