Mini album phobia

19JAN2

This is my mini album basket. It houses the twenty or so mini-albums that I’ve made in the past couple of years. It sits in a convenient place in the living room and is constantly a source of amusement when guests come over.

So I was rather surprised when I recently discovered that I have a phobia of making mini albums.

I fear that the products won’t match. That they’ll take too long to get done. That they’ll be too stressful. That they’ll end up looking all the same and being too boring…

Don’t get me wrong. Mini albums are great for storing numerous, multiple photos of one event. And they’re great for carrying around and showing off when I actually get done with them. But it’s always the thought of starting that puts me off and terrifies me.

And it’s strange really, because I don’t think I’ve had this before with the mini albums I’ve made.

Ahh, I know all this sounds so silly now and I’ll just end up laughing at myself after I get started and finish putting my pictures into minis.

So for now, I’ll just look this lion squarely in the face and let this inspiration aplenty help me get started.
