Victorian Scrapbooking

 The tops of candy boxes, cigar boxes, calendars, etc. were collected and put in scrapbooks. These three are all embossed 3-dimensional designs. The scanned image does not do them justice. The colors are warm and beautifully added to the overall effect. It is hoped you will use them in some of your scrapbooks, as I plan on doing. These particular pictures are taken from Maggie Peel Ericksen's Scrapbook.

This past July we passed our Two-Year Anniversary of our blog. We are now approaching 15000 visits from people who care about the History of Mt. Pleasant, the Pioneers who gave up so much to come here. Pioneers who left their extended families in the old country, broke the ground, fought the indians and established a home for themselves and future generations. Google and Blogger now have a tool that graphs our most popular posts. During the next few weeks we will repeat those posts. Here is a listing: Pioneer of the Month: Peter Monsen (Peder Mogensen). Recipe: Danish Ebelskevers.  Twenty Fourth of July by Talula Nelson. Victorian Scrapbooking. Hamilton Elementary ~ 1940s.
