I was working on a new scrapbook the last few weeks and I added so many things into it that the ring (the wire) that is holding my book together is not big enough anymore.
I canīt barley close the book anymore. :doh:
I canīt get a bigger ring around here in the stores.
Can you tell me what else I can put in to replace that ring??? :confused:
I was thinking about to put a cotton thread in it but the first and last page of the book is made of really hard cardboard that s why I wouldnīt be able to turn the pages anymore. :cry:
Can you please give me some advice???? :think:

Thanks Cat.

Oh goodness. I have had that happen before and I think what I did was just get a different book for it. I got one that has just three holes and ribbon that ties. It wasn't the best quality, but I'm sure it will last and it worked! Good luck, that's a tough one. You could try to just take the whole wire out and use some really thick ribbons? Maybe?

I know I've seen individual rings - like 3 ring binder rings, but individual ones .. perhaps you could find some of those and take the wire out of your book and push the individual rings through about 3 or 4 holes .. might not look particularly nice, but it would open and close. Failing that, I think you'll have to buy a new album and transfer your pages to that. Good luck!

Most office suppliers sell what I've been told are called treasury tags and they might help...
