{ Cherished Memory Boxes }

More often than not, I'm saving little doodles, projects, jotting memories and more of my little ones! I would use two drawers in my kitchen to keep the stuff, but it was getting out of control! Does this sound familiar? If so listen up!


I ran into these adorable kraft style photo boxes on sale at Michaels for $1.50 each! I should've grabbed a bunch, unfortunately I only grabbed two for this project! Once I was home I personalized the boxes with each childs name with stickers I already had (from Target dollar spot!)  You could decorate the boxes with their favorite colors using wrapping or scrapbook paper or even have the little ones draw a picture on the boxes! 
Include all those special memories you don't want to forget in that little box! I have things like school projects, school pictures, ticket and movie stubs, first haircuts, party invites, etc! I'm looking forward to adding more and more as they grow! I'm sure I'll end up with a few of these, but it will be so fun to look back when they're older!
