Scrapbooking is more popular than golf

Can you believe that? Is this true? Here in New Zealand, almost every bloke I know is a keen or aspiring golfer.

However, according to a Craft and Hobby Association research,

Modern scrapbooking began in the early 1980s when the first scrapbooking store opened in Utah. But the hobby really exploded about 10 years ago, turning into a $2.5 billion annual industry.

In fact, the pastime is now more popular than golf. That’s right. Golf.

One in three households has a scrapbooker, compared with one in four households with a golfer.

Wow, better let the boss know….haha!
