About Us
Scrapbooking Team
Lara – Founder
Scrapbook & Things, a cherished family venture, was born at my dining room table in 1999. A handful of family and friends embarked on this creative journey with me, little knowing that it would one day become our family’s livelihood.
Our humble beginnings in the dining room led us to the garage, then to a shop, a house, and several other locations. By God’s grace, we’ve managed to keep our doors open, a testament to the loyal customers we’ve met along the way.
As the fifth scrapbooking shop to open in South Africa, and now the last of the original five still in operation, we recognize that our success transcends our own comprehension. We are hopeful for many more years of scrapbooking and trading ahead.
A heartfelt thank you to all our clients who have journeyed with us. For those we have yet to meet, we eagerly anticipate our paths crossing.
Keep scrapping, Lara

Our Journey: Our journey began with a simple dream at a dining room table, and it has led us to become one of the most cherished scrapbooking shops in South Africa. This journey, filled with creativity, passion, and perseverance, is a testament to our dream. We’ve weathered storms, celebrated victories, and through it all, our dream has only grown stronger.
Our Promise: Our dream extends beyond scrapbooks. We dream of a community, a family bound by the love of preserving memories.
