Reddit mentions: The best bookshelf photo albums

Look at each one at a time, feel gratitude for the holiday joy you have already received from them, wrap them in tissue paper, and put in the trash.
If you want to keep them to compare photos over the years or something, get a photo flip book like this one to keep them in and put in your box of Christmas decorations to get out and go through next year as new cards come in.
Whatever you do, honor them by not letting them sit in a box longer than a year at a time. Usually anything with a face or that is particularly meaningful, you want to "bury" with some sort of covering, like tissue paper, as a way to be respectful.

I lucked out at Goodwill! However, these are pretty much the same thing and I love them because you can swap vinyl out super easily.

1. Hell yeah they are, I would kill for Brent Smith's voice! I was pretty lucky to find that auction for Sound of Madness, and still can't believe I spent that much money on a record! :-)
   
2. Thanks!! I built the bar myself, the only thing that needs to change is the green carpet, it's on my list...
   
3. Those are Americanflat album frames (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00UNSPUDQ), they're basically regular backload picture frames that happen to be the right dimensions for an album cover. They look good, but honestly they feel pretty cheap, like if you're not careful the glass will break. I didn't put the actual albums in them though, just the sleeves. I took the records out and put them in generic sleeves: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CF5WBWI

Your homemade spellbook looks great. For anyone who's not crafty (like me), I would recommend looking for "rustic photo album" on an online vendor of choice. For instance, this would work great as a spellbook.

This is best you are going to do at price. Believe it or not, others will sell this frame for double the price. I will tell you that these things are plastic and look cheap. You could mask off the "glass" and spray paint it for a better finish. I doubt there is any solar protection. Displaying the record and the jacket will pretty much render the framing permanent. You will need matting solutions to control the difference in thicknesses.

They have them for $10.99 each and free prime shipping.

this slimline one is taller and thinner than most albums. For $2 more you can get the more common size that will fit on most bookshelves easier. Either way they hold the same number of cards.

You're probably going to want 12.5 by 12.5 (or 32cm by 32cm). If you're not looking for something elegant (e.i. you're fine with cheap plastic of metal) amazon has this and Wal-Mart has this.

Hope this helps.

They seem to have gone up a bit in price since the last time I purchased them. I want to say I paid 22 each. But I’m sure if you shopped around you could do better than the 29 each Amazon is asking.

I was originally using a 3x5 photo album but once I started collecting badge ribbons, I bought a magnetic photo album. It has cardboard pages covered in light adhesive and a clear film you lay on top over the badges. Here's a link to the one I have - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07M5W2WKJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_cIGLDbTQH28ZY

These look great! Do you have any resources for albums for Instax square shots? This https://www.amazon.com/CAIUL-Pockets-Instax-Fujifilm-Instant/dp/B07412FKGP is the only thing I've found and it's kind of tacky.

That's what we did! We got this photo album and asked everyone to write us a note.

I'm never going to just open up a book of names, but it will be nice to read the messages while I'm showing off our photos!

Not proud to admit that I had to google what Flash Cubes are xD From what google showed me, they don’t look like them I think. Here is the amazon link if you want a better look (5th picture): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MY4FRD2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_TjEtDbBRHDRBM

They seem to be transparent. Could be clear plastic cubes I suppose, but for what purpose? They are also 100% photoshopped in there, which makes it even weirder. Someone made a conscious decision to put them in to simulate a desk.

Check it out! Thank you :-)

Does anyone know the difference in quality between the art vinyl play and display (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000C1YV8O/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER) and the snap show and use record frames (https://www.amazon.com/Snap-Show-Vinyl-Record-Frame/dp/B00ISPR0IY/ref=pd_sim_201_3?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00ISPR0IY&pd_rd_r=GM9G7DY91ANST1YCSFMY&pd_rd_w=Gwlw2&pd_rd_wg=TVcw0&psc=1&refRID=GM9G7DY91ANST1YCSFMY)?

I saw a blogger on Instagram post that she's using this with a Instax camera for her guest book.. this way you don't have to prep it, it's affordable and there's room for the guest to sign a short note next to each picture. It also comes in a ton of colors so you could match your wedding colors, would something like this work?

Ok so I did a quick search online and I found a pink ver. on Amazon that's new! I also found a someone selling a set I think of both albums if the mint one is too much. The only bing is though that they only come with the photobook, CD, and the little banner. Mostly all I'm finding is the signed Mwave albums. But I'll keep looking!

If you're considering putting a record alone on the wall make sure it's not something you care about. I have a couple signed sleeves in these frames, I'm sure with the right tape you could mount them. Take out the records though, it's extra weight and you don't want to ruin them from being stored incorrectly.

I got it from Marshall's actually. It was a random find and only like $5. It's not unlike this one:
https://smile.amazon.com/Arpan-10-Vintage-collage-UK-European/dp/B00PH6G3LC/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&qid=1500502030&sr=8-14&keywords=travel+photo+album

Except it has sleeves for 100 and the cover is different.

This guy's way is probably way easier, but I went to a craft store called Michaels that has Vinyl frames like this one on Amazon. Michaels always has crazy discount coupons so I got like 25 frames for really cheap by stacking coupons. Then I took the actual records out and put only the record jackets ( the cardboard part with artwork on it) in the frames. I took a measuring tape and measured out the length of 1 to where the spot the hanger was in and also the whole width. Then I just marked the spots the nails would go with a pencil on the wall in a big grid and put picture hanging nails in, then hung them. It didn't take very long.

A picture frame you can put album covers in. I have The Lamb and Trick of the Tail next to each other on the wall.
