Two Peas in a Bucket: where its scrapbookers went
Two Peas in a Bucket was one of the biggest scrapbooking shops and message boards online. Its site no longer answers. Many of its members carried on at 2Peas Refugees, a ProBoards forum.
Browsing and posting are free.
Two Peas sold paper, stamps and digital kits, and its boards and galleries were where many people learnt to scrapbook. When it closed, regulars set up their own board to keep talking.
Below is where each part of Two Peas lives on, as we found it on 27 October 2026.

Why people still search for Two Peas
Some are looking for a layout they saved there years ago. Others want the same mix of friendly regulars and good page ideas.
The layouts that were hosted on Two Peas are gone with the site. If you posted there, check your own computer, Pinterest boards and old blog posts for copies.
2Peas Refugees today
It is a general forum now as much as a scrapbooking one. Threads on travel, recipes and family sit beside challenges and supply questions.
That suits people who came for the friendships. If you only want layouts and techniques, a shop forum or a gallery will be quicker.
Finding the same kind of place
What made Two Peas work was that a page, the products on it and the people who made it were in one place. Few sites put all three together now.
- For talk: 2Peas Refugees or r/scrapbooking.
- For challenges: a digital or paper shop forum.
- For pages with their materials and makers: the tbf scrapbook community.

Questions
Is Two Peas in a Bucket still open?
No. Its address returned an unavailable error when we tried it on 27 October 2026, and the shop and boards have been gone for years.
Where did the Two Peas message board members go?
Many went to 2Peas Refugees, a free ProBoards forum. Others moved to Scrapbook.com, Facebook groups and digital kit shop forums.
Can I get my old Two Peas gallery layouts back?
Not from Two Peas. Look for copies you kept, pins of your layouts on Pinterest, or old blog posts. The Internet Archive may hold some pages.
