It’s amazing how quickly time flies after having a baby. The first few sleepless and arduous nights feel like they are lasting an eternity, but before you’ve had time to blink, you’re celebrating your little one’s first birthday, watching them stumble their way across the room on their own and left wondering where the time has gone. And unbelievably the following years seem to disappear even faster……
But as parents, we’re left with some very precious items that remind us of those first days, items that we will cherish forever. The first scan picture, the hospital bracelet, a first size nappy, the baby’s favourite outfit, the first shoes, a special comforter or small toy, christening gifts and keepsakes. The list goes on.
Whatever the items are, they are important and it feels almost a sin to hide them away in a box in the attic, rarely to be looked at again. This is why I opted for a Keepsake Frame – I didn’t want to let go of things that reminded me of such special times and so instead, I framed them.
With Keepsake Frames the options are endless. You can use a frame without a mount and create a scrapbook theme using mounted photos, decorative accessories as well as baby items, such as shoes.
A single opening, wide, mount can help create a modern and contemporary effect if you are using a simple display inside. I.e. one pair of shoes, a small teddy, an outfit.
Or a mount can be used to create sections in the display: Two openings can split a photo with a baby item such as a shoe or soft toy. With three openings you could display a photo, a scan picture and a small soft toy.
If you are not particularly creative but know what you want to frame, the process is simple. All you need to do is choose a keepsake frame that best complements the item you wish to frame.
If you are creative you can use different coloured and patterned craft papers instead of backing boards and can personalise the mount.
You can style your keepsake frame so that it will complement any room in the house. What better way to cherish those memories?
So what are you waiting for? Now all you have to do is decide what to frame.
