Remembering Life’s Little Moments

Just yesterday evening, I felt inspired to look through an old photo album my mom gave to me years ago. It had been sitting on my vanity for months without me even opening it, and yesterday, with the cool winds of autumn beginning to blow, I felt nostalgic enough to take a peak. As I looked through past Christmases, birthday parties, and events I can barely remember, I was reminded of the importance of photographs.

Photographs, in my opinion, are integral to a life well lived. It’s wonderful to be able to look back at years, even decades, before and remember what it was like to be with a certain person, or at an event, or even just reminded of something that happened. It seems that we are so lucky to have photographs in our lives. Without them, so many things would flee our minds, leaving us with just our memories, rather than actual pictures- colourful, vibrant, alive. A picture does speak a thousand words, doesn’t it?

Except sometimes, it’s hard to remember to go through the countless photo albums stacked away in the attick or pushed underneath the bed. I like the idea of having your greatest pictures out in the open, where you and everyone else who visits your home, can see them. One idea is to create a bespoke calendar of your favourite, hand-picked photographs. I like the idea of calendars because you can pick a photograph that suits each month. For example, the October month may have a photograph of your child’s first Halloween. And April may have a picture of the whole family in a beautiful springtime shot.

MixBook has a variety of custom calendars you can pick out yourself. Different presentations in a variety of colours, shapes and sizes are MixBook’s specialty. For example, there’s the “whimsical garden” calendar and the “textured portfolio” calendar. There’s “vibrant sherbet,” for those of who adore bright colours, and “organic linen,” for those who like more modest, understated design.
