I started to go through my holiday files when I remembered that I bought a stash of holiday-themed scrapbooks on a trip to Cincinnati. There are 12 in the collection and each one is more spectacular than the last.
Some industrious woman put these together by holiday (there is even one titled "Lent") and they include decorating ideas, menus, recipes and even make-up tips. Most of the articles are dated 1957.
Article titles include: "Family Eats Scrambled Eggs As Shells Become Works of Art", "The Marvelous Mitten Tree", "Spangles for the House", "These Dandies are Candies" and, well I could go on and on.
How big are these???
