I love scrap books. They're such a useful tool to have. Mine are full of magazine cut outs (as you can see above), postcards, photos or even sometimes my drawings. I always try to keep them about A5 size so that they can easily slip into my shoulder bag when I'm travelling. I started doing this not long after finishing my degree in Textile and Surface Design where I would collect ideas from magazines that related to projects. These days I tend choose things that are of a much more personnel choice although I have used my books to show clients ideas that I think would work for them. Another reason for doing this is because I don't have the space to keep piles of magazines so if something catches my eye I'll rip it out.
