Lauren Thomann is an antique dealer, freelance writer, and editor with nearly two decades of experience. She specializes in antiques, antique jewelry, old houses, vintage design, and lifestyle content.
When I started working at an antique store in college, I was also really into scrapbooking. So, my pages began to take on a very “antique” aesthetic. Before I could find CC0 images online, I collected Victorian papers, postcards, and books from antique shops, went to Barnes and Noble for books with graphics (and CDs!), and then rounded it all out with a trip to Joann Fabrics. All this is to say, I was cleaning out my basement and found some of these vintage scrapbooking supplies recently, so it’s time to share my favorites!
