These DIY scrapbooking innovations range from personalized photo book tutorials to monthly sticker subscriptions that target crafty and creative adults. In addition to a handful of hand-illustrated stickers and unique stationary sets, other notables include at-home letterpress kits or journals that call for collaboration between friends or siblings. An evolving Millennial maker culture is reflective of adults' growing rejection of modern technology -- something they are overwhelmed with on a daily basis.
Additionally, standouts like children's needlepoint and mask kits fall in line with this maker culture and are proof of Millennial parents' encouragement of hands-on play and creative learning activities for young generations.
Other DIY scrapbooking innovations include eco-friendly crayon, paint and paper tools that encourage creativity without discounting sustainable manufacturing and design practices.
