We all want our homes to look festive for every holiday, but for most of us, times are tough and storage space is tight.
You can create inexpensive holiday decor and start a family tradition to boot!
Create a simple Memory Frame for ANY holiday. Below are examples of our Halloween escapades! I plan to do our Christmas card photos next…
- Grab photos of your kiddos (and you!) from past holidays and make a Memory Frame.
- Scrap one page (I did 8.5" X 8.5") for each year. Be sure to put names and the year on each one. It may be simple to see the age progression when the kiddos are young, but as they get older… well… we do too… along with our memories!
- Use chip board so the Memory Frame is super sturdy.
- Hot glue a ribbon on the back to hang as a part of your holiday decor.
I did one memory frame for each little one and one family shot. By the time they are old enough to notice I'll have loads of Memory Frames to decorate my walls.
Best of all, because the chipboard is so thin, you can pack an entire room of these decorations into one box. My 2-year-old, Eli already likes to look back at "baby Eli" dressed in the bat costume. To be totally honest I think my Hubby and I have enjoyed looking back the most… time flies when you are raising kiddos!
This is also a great project for the annual Christmas card photo!
