Our Store

It’s not often that one can say you were the first these days but here we are!

The first commercial Scrapbook Store in South Africa opened its doors in January 2003 dedicated to providing a large selection of Scrapbooking materials.

At the beginning of March 2007 the Willows store was relocated to Design Square (previously BROOKLYN SQUARE) offering a HUGE VARIETY of scrapbook materials all under ONE ROOF !

Workshops for beginners to the more advanced Scrapbookers are available daily where one can learn and apply new techniques in developing your own special memory albums---- Crop Sessions are also on offer where you can scrap at your own time using our equipment and workshop.

The storestaff team includes Serena, Marlize, Eugene, Gugu, Sam, Khensani with class instructors Desire, Marlize, Auntie Des & Serena !

The Scrapbook Company is a family-owned business managed by self-confessed Scrapbook Addict, Marlize. After years of working in the hospitality industry helping her husband with the books while her passion for Scrapbooking never stopped growing, Marlize decided that it was time to expand. After intensive research, an almost never-ending search for the ideal location and a week in Viva! Las Vegas to attend a Scrapbook seminar, the first commercial Scrapbook store was born in good ol’ Pretoria.

And what a trip it’s been since!!

The Scrapbook Company is also a member of a US based association drawing from the combined experience and community of over 300 Scrapbook Retailers Worldwide and directly accessing over 300 vendors, ensuring that you, the customer, will be the first to receive news on the newest products available on the market. Through the group buying advantages we are also able to offer you the best prices possible. The Scrapbook Company is a fully independent store though, build from scratch by South Africans.

No more tucking photographs away in a shoebox after the holidays then!
At The Scrapbook Company our talented and friendly staff can show you how you can preserve those photographs in showcase fashion using the extensive inventory of archaically-safe papers, stickers, albums, binders, templates, die-cuts and numerous other materials found in our store.
So come and visit us at The Scrapbook Company , located in the Design Square, Pretoria.
We hope you’ll enjoy our website and find it a useful tool.

We do not have a catalog simply because our inventory is updated so frequently and it will be cost prohibitive to print a catalog- you can however be rest assured that we are dedicated to sourcing the latest and greatest scrapbook materials as they emerge on the market.
