Who will read your journals? The history of hobbies (ft. Mandy from Paper of the Past)

Welcome back to the Crafternoon Podcast hosted by Daisy ​⁠ @MyGreenCow and Meg ​⁠ @megjournals 📖✨ This time we're diving into the history of scrapbooks and journals! Daisy takes us on a journey of scrapbooks in the 1800s, stationery adverts from the newspaper archives, and a look at journals passed down in her family. Later, Meg is joined by Mandy from @paperofthepast on Instagram to chat about collecting scrapbooks and the stories behind the pages. We hope you enjoy joining us for this crafternoon! 💭 Mentioned in this episode: Blog post: https://www.mygreencow.co.uk/blogs/mygreencow/journaling-in-the-1800s Sources: Oxford English Dictionary: https://www.oed.com/dictionary/scrapbook_n?tl=true Scrapbooking Waterloo: Thomas Pickstock’s travel journal: https://blogs.bl.uk/untoldlives/2016/08/scrapbooking-waterloo-thomas-pickstocks-travel-journal.html Victorian scrap book / album 1880: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/167587225906?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=0f_GcqzKT7K&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=HwTKSGuWQ96&stype=1&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY 🌸 Follow Mandy!
