How to bring photo memories to life
Some of us may still have a photo album that with a flip of a page we can take a walk down memory lane as though it happened yesterday until we realize our treasured memories are from years ago.
We don’t remember where that photo was taken or what year is encapsulated there in paper form.
While it’s easy to write a note upon the back of our photographs, the best way to rekindle those memories is to log each one in a scrapbook.
Making a scrapbook is a fun way to raise the storage of photographs and other memorabilia to a personal level.
Retaining keepsakes from important events recaptures the essence of a particular moment once it has passed.
Our memories often wither in old shoeboxes where their special meaning fades.
By gathering our memories into a scrapbook we can breathe life into them and share the joy with a new generation.
A scrapbook is our own storybook, storing particular items that capture the meaning behind the memories.
The straw you kept from your first date with your now husband or wife? That’s a precious memory.
But think how that memory comes alive when you scrapbook that straw with a photograph of the new couple, and include your thoughts from that special night.
How much more meaningful does a memento become to your children when it is conveyed as a part of the whole story of your love?
What was once a plastic tube found at the bottom of a box is now a living memory conveying far more than you ever imagined.
A scrapbook can store your memories in the most precious and personal way.
Don’t keep your life to yourself, share it with a scrapbook and relive your memories through the eyes of others.
