The Unknown Family Book

While talking with a colleague, we shared stories of what people do with the photos without story, the photos where nobody knows who is in the photo. A neighbor chucking boxes of photos, of unknown family. A sad image, yet real for so many people. We chuckled about putting together an unknown family book - taking those photos and putting them in a book, but with no names. Although silly at first, we can to think that we could bring that book to family events to see if any, just one person, could help identify these photos. Perhaps it is a stretch.

"Photos without stories are memories lost." - Sharon Murdoch, PhD

It is important we become intentional about documenting the stories of our life today. Tomorrow may be too late...

Tune in tomorrow for Father's Day Gifts

We will be having a 10 day special starting tomorrow. Tune in tomorrow to see what would be a great gift for your Dad.

Happy Mother's Day

I couldn't let this day pass without honoring the mother's of the world. It is a job that is not applied for, a job that just arrives, and a job that has more duties that was in the job description. It is a job that has overtimes, but also a job that has more bonus' that any woman without a child could imagine.

I thank the mother's of today. You are shaping the next generation. Teach them to be kind. They will teach it to their friends and children. Teach them to be compassionate. They will be the healers of the future. Teach them value creativity. They will never feel stuck. Teach them the importance of heritage. They will always connect with youth, and be a storyteller.

Give an extra hug to mom today.

Bingo Cards

I saw the cutest game this weekend by my friend Beth. She has told me about her BINGO cards, but this was the first time I actually saw them. She created a 12x12 sheet with family photos on them. Then, she created draw cards with our playing cards, with the coordinating photos. They were absolutely adorable!

Contact me today, if you would like to create Photo Bingo Cards.

Celebrating 50 years of Easters

As my family celebrated Easter this year, it was an excited and somber day. My grandmother has had a fantastic Easter celebration tradition which started 50 years ago. The excitement to know how the tradition has evolved when the pinata was added, and the year we had music to do the bunny hop. Yet, with 50 years that have passed, we realize that Grandma has lived a full life. How long will she still be here to continue celebrating with us? Her first grandchild will turn 50 this year, as grandma approaches 100.

Celebrations and traditions are often taken for granted until they are no longer present. Think about your celebrations and traditions. Document and share them in a customized storybook for your family.

Scanning for a Cause

I spent the weekend scanning photos to raise money for the Cancer Coping Center. The experience of handling the photos that carry so many memories, was deep, as we laughed, we cried and we explored history.

The women at my table were phenomenal. We had a breast cancer survivor now in her 60's who shared her efforts to raise money. She shared the decision to show her bald head during cancer treatment at a fundraising event. It was a brave decision at the time, as she said she had not showed her baldness to anyone in her life until that day. She explained that she makes sure that her story is shared with her children and their children, as breast cancer can happen to anyone.

The Cancer Coping Center helps family members by providing a creative outlet as they are waiting for their family member undergoing cancer treatment.

Pet Memorial Books

My cat died yesterday.

As Christmas I created a book for my son of our new kitten, well she's really 9 months old when we got her. That cat has created such joy in his life. I love the book, even though I have given it away to him. I have been scolded, sadly many times, by my son for taking his book with me as I go see people. I can easily order another copy of the book, to avoid the scorn from my son, but I have not.

I have waited, as I am wanting to create a more inclusive book to include my old cat. Unfortunately, it will now be a Pet Memorial Book. I have stolen his book yesterday, as there was a page in there of my old cat that I had to keep close to my heart. I must put it back before he returns home from school.

Remember your pets...

Old Friends

Yesterday, I spend the evening with a friend from High School that we haven't sat down with and talked for almost 20 years. We shared story, after story, after story. We talked about the challenges in out life, about the successes. We shared about the lives of people we once knew and we now know. We talked for over 5 hours and could have talked for 100 more.

These are the precious moments in our everyday life that we need to capture in eternity in a book. The friend who fights for our country, and the one who went to the Peace Corp. The friend who works in the prison and the one recovering from drugs. The friend who has a recording studio in New York, the friend who works on our favorite TV shows and the one with the famous musician for a father. The friend who had a baby last month, and the friend who cherishes their four legged furry child. The friend who lost his Dad in high school, the one who lost her Dad last week, and the one nurturing their 94 year old grandmother. Write, preserve and share your story about yourself and the ones you care about.

And, call someone you've been thinking about, you never know, perhaps they've been thinking about you too.

Classroom Valentine's

I just received a set of Valentine's for the classroom for my son. They have a photo of him and his cat. He loves them! It is fun to create and give such a personalized card for a holiday that his become depersonalized. In a classroom setting when you are required to give everyone a Valentine, no matter what your feelings are of your classmates. It has become another holiday where kids look forward to the candy attached to it. With these personalized Valentine's, this will change their perception. You are able to choose the exact wording that you would like for your child to have on their Valentine. You choose the photo you want to share with the classmates. Bringing personalization back into Valentine's Day.

Customized Art

One of the great things about our country is the freedom of the press, yet we need to be careful not to print anything that is licensed or copyrighted. We typically recognize licensed items such as garfield, but sometimes we are not aware of other copyrighted materials. For example, professional photos are copyrighted. In order to use professional photos in a product, you need their permission. Many photographers are happy to have the additional advertising, but not all. So, be sure to ask. I have just added a blog link of clip art that is not copyrighted. The blog indicates why the image is not copyrighted, and it's origin. They are wonderful images and very extensive. If you are looking for specific artwork, I encourage you to check out this site.

Uploading Photos

The hard part is not the task of uploading your photos, but knowing where you store, or organized your photos. Let me share a quick video of how to upload photos with Heritage Makers:
