Postcard Booklet

Turning your postcards into little books is a great way to store your travel memories. It's also very low cost and easy to do. After I traveled to a few counties with large groups, it started occurring to me that I was taking the same pictures everyone else was taking. So instead, I started buying postcards of the locations I was visiting---they were cheaper (at the time) and professionally taken.

Pick out and organize the postcards you want to use. It's up to you how they are organized, but I like doing it based on where I went first.

Punch 2 evenly spaced holes in each of your postcards. A full size hole puncher with movable ends can be really useful and time saving.

Connect

Use the D-rings to connect your postcards. As you add more and more cards, you can size up the rings.

To Cover or Not to Cover

Adding a cover (and a backing) is totally optional. Cardboard works great and can be decorated however you like.
