Journal Keepsake to Treasure

Learn how to make a journal keepsake to treasure forever. Many times in our fast paced world, it is hard to find time to sit down and journal. This is why we encourage you to write at least one sentence every night, before bed, summarizing your day. You could also just write down one sentence about something in your day that impacted you the most.

Wouldn’t it be awesome if we could hop in a time machine and time travel to the special event or day in the photos of your photo album? Wouldn’t it be great to relive the story behind each page in your scrapbook? Unfortunately this is not actually possible, but there is a solution that comes close to it.

The solution is you can write down as much details as possible for your photos, make videos explaining everything happening in the scenes at your parties, home or daily life events, holidays, milestone moments, etc. Record your thoughts and feelings in a journal keepsake to treasure the rest of your life, and your grandchildren’s lives. You can even add a special extra touch, and save souvenirs or other mementos in a baby, wedding, or “Any Occasion” DIY time capsule. Get your own time capsule, here, today to get started. Save your journal and other sentimental items in your time capsule.

A time capsule is another way to go back in time and reminisce. When you open the time capsule 20, 30, or 50 years from now, you will know you will find a journal keepsake to treasure inside. What was life like when you were born? That is the point of the time capsule and taking the time to journal. Many times we forget things and the details of events are what takes us back to relive history.

It is so important to transfer your journal thoughts to each scrapbook page or photo album. Don’t just assume that your future grandchildren and great grandchildren will know where, when, and why a photo was taken, or who all was present. A journal keepsake to treasure is something that has your voice and personality tied in. It is your description of what is happening in the world at the time.

Document a family member’s life or your own family’s life. Write down fond memories you have all had together so far. Set up a time to interview each family member asking questions about what they want to do in the future, how many kids they want to have, if they want to get married, and other random and interesting things. Brainstorm about questions to ask to let your future great grandchildren know who you are and what you did in life. Then, when you are no longer around, your answers or journal filled with these questions can help them know what your life was like. Make sure to include and talk about important milestone moments in your life. Overall, make sure to include questions about the past, present, and future.
