Storing Your Stories
.
For the last two weeks, I’ve been photographing and documenting the stories behind my family heirlooms and the things I treasure and want to pass on to my daughter. So, I’ve started to gather up the pictures and stories of my “heirlooms,” now what?
I’ve decided to keep my pictures and stories in an album with photo pockets.
That certainly isn’t the only option. You can make scrapbook or art journal pages with your photos and stories; you can keep them in a notebook or photo box; or you can keep them online, either on your computer or on a photo sharing service like Flickr. The photo sharing option would be particularly nice if you want to share or gather stories from different family members.Â
If you have a neat idea for storing your heirloom information, I’d love to hear it. Next week, I’ll share a few stories.

Well executed curl-up ball Freedom. Hehe! Deccy
How can you look at that picture & not just want to wrap yourself around that sweetness! 😀 Nice quote too!
I’m really looking forward to the stories 🙂
You’ve created something that your daughter and perhaps future grandchildren will treasure!
What a gorgeous album! Another great idea! I love the last pic.
What a great idea. I know that some of HH’s friends who quilt, keep quilt journals. What a great idea for family treasures.

Oh my goodness, a quilt journal. Now that would be a treasure.
Dats a very smart idea…and one future generations will enjoy. Your daughter will appreciate it.
