It is often too late before most of us think about how best to preserve our family treasures. Caring for Your Family Treasures: Heritage Preservation
is a practical guide on how to best safeguard you cherished photo albums, antique furniture, a wedding dress and many other precious family heirlooms for future generations.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure - an old adage, but as many scrapbookers have become painfully aware, it applies to our precious photographs as well as many other family treasures. This book will be a valuable resource for anyone that plans on passing anything to posterity. It gives clear instructions on how to care for leather-bound books, family documents and other treasures on paper, holiday ornaments, silverware, jewelry, musical instruments, dolls, toys and more. The text identifies organic and inorganic materials, things that are sensitive to humidity and the special care required for each.
Along with the clearly written instructions are wonderful photographs to help the reader visualize the steps to take. Some projects will require professional assistance and the book will direct you to reputable agencies.
This is a wonderful source of information for anyone with questions on how to care for your family treasures!
