1. Spell it out<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It sounds simple enough, but be sure your photo book cover includes where you traveled. Labeling books with place and date makes your subject clear to friends and family who just happen to spot it on your coffee table and give it a flip-through. via Erin Spain<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Spine savvy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To tell your Hawaii photo book from your Great Lakes photo book, add text to the spine. To do this, simply double-click on the long, skinny spine area in the project space and a text box will pop up. via Jet Set Fam<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Organize photos by color<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Save ticket treasures<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep plane tickets, theater playbills, and attraction passes in a small envelope during your trip. When you return, arrange them on a table, take a photo, and upload it to your book. <\/span>via Domestikated Life<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
