Theme Ideas for
Albums
So...you know who you want to give an
album to, and what photos and memorabilia it will include. Now...you can either have a custom-made album that focuses on
your feelings, thoughts and the pictures, or you can consider the following “theme”
albums.
THE PROPOSAL
ALBUM:
If you’re thinking of
proposing…this is a
very unique idea for you! You can
take some pictures of your
"dating time" and some stories and thoughts and make a mini 6x6
album
with them. Show your loved one how much
he/she really
means to you. Then...on the last page, we will put a pocket on the
page in which you can put the Engagement Ring!
Guaranteed to bring tears!! The
additional benefit is that the
album serves as a keepsake of that amazing moment in a
person's
life!
Help us get the word out about our
Proposal Albums... pass it on to men or women that you know are thinking
of proposing. If you refer
them to us, and they place an order, we’ll send you a special free gift!
Quilt Album: Every page will have a different quilt pattern
with your
photos pieced in or on top of the design.
Cars/Trucks/Trains:
Every page will have a different
type/color of
car on it. Great for little boys or car enthusiasts! It
doesn't have to be
limited to transportation, just chose what the boy or girl likes...
dinosaurs,
sports, etc...
Time Line:
The whole album will be
"threaded" time line of a person's
life, or moments of their lives such as planning a wedding, a daily
account of
a special trip or even having a baby.
Time Capsule: Each page will feature a picture of a
different item!
(Don’t bury
it, Display it!)
ABC
Album: Every page will have a different letter of the alphabet
and each letter will be used to describe the person who receives
the
album.
For example: “A” Awesome, “B” Beautiful, “C” Caring, etc…
Advice Book for
Children:
Each page will have a different
piece of
advice that you want your children to learn!
Let your thoughts and
feelings for your children last
forever.
The “Fridge” Book: Clean up the clutter. Take all the
artwork and
pictures
that have hung or are currently hanging on your fridge and put
them
into a keepsake the whole family will enjoy! Your children will
love
that you cherish their work so much to put it in a book.
Teddy Bears:
A picture of a different bear on each page...or
anything that a person loves (butterflies, dogs, penguins, etc...)
The Garden Book:
A beautiful gift for the gardeners
you know,
or
people who just love flowers. Every page will feature a different
flower.
You could include sentiments about friendship and nature.
The Recipe
Book:
Do you have a box filled with the family's favorite
recipes? Share the recipes along with pictures and
special stories with
family members. Your family members will always be able to find that
favorite recipe!
Calendar year: Every couple pages can feature a different month of
the year.
Vacation Time:
Every page can have a different "tidbit"
fact about the
sights that you visited!
Favorite Things: As in the Sound of Music song,
putting together an
album of a person's favorite things can really cheer them and make
them feel special.
Spiritual
Album: Each page can feature a
different
meaningful
scripture or positive thought quotation along with a memory of good
times. In the words of James M. Barrie "God gave us memories that
we might have Roses in the December of our Lives".
Stories: If you
have that very fortunate gift of story-telling or writing,
put a book together of the narratives you've written. We'll
decorate
them! Poetry books are a lovely way to pass down your gift to future
generations. We have written a story for a small child and included
pictures of the child along with the story. Please call to discuss
this if
you are interested in a specialized album like this.
A Memorabilia Album:
Maybe you only have a few pictures, but a ton
of memorabilia (concert & event ticket stubs, special cards you've
been given, bulletins of important events). You can have an album
made of these too!
A Military Honor
Album:
You can use different
memorabilia, pictures
from boot-camp graduation, historical moments in America's military,
poems and stories about how proud you are of your loved one for
serving our country so courageously, American song lyrics, military
code of ethics, etc...
** If you can arrange to have one of these albums sent overseas, we'll
pay for the shipping! It would be an honor to give something
back to the men and women in our armed services!
We will be happy to help you get started on your album today!
