Scrapbooking has recently exploded in popularity among women of all ages in the United States. Once a private affair, creating scrapbooks has become the center of conferences, conventions, gatherings, and weekend getaways nationwide. This research explores the meaning of scrapbooking for women and families in the United States. This research is based upon thirty in-depth interviews and nine-months of fieldwork with scrapbookers in the Midwest. The findings of this study demonstrate how women of all ages view scrapbooking crop sessions as making time for themselves and making time for family. This research reveals how scrapbookers talk about crop sessions as making me time, getting away, making friends, and engaging in adult conversations. Women view scrapbooking as a constructive outlet, find satisfaction in it as wives and mothers, and see family and friends as an audience for scrapbook pages. I also discuss the work of scrapbooking by examining work time and work community among scrapbookers. The research reveals how scrapbookers schedule, plan, and manage their work time. Crop sessions provide a work community for women to share a common passion, knowledge, skills, products, work, and ideas. My findings also reveal how scrapbookers strive to preserve "perfect memories" of family life with perpetual passion. Through careful selection of pictures, page designs, and products, they strive to paint a vivid and engaging picture of family life for others to see.
