Mother’s Day Memory Binder

Still looking for a Mother’s Day gift for this Sunday? Here’s an idea for a project you still have time to make! I created this binder with a personalized cover and plastic sheet protectors inside to store all my son’s artwork. He’s still a toddler so for now I filled the binders with a few paintings he’s done over the past few months along with some photos of him making those paintings. Now his grandmas have a place to store and preserve all those precious creations from their grandchildren!

Materials: 3 ring binder with plastic exterior pockets, scrapbooking supplies, clear page protectors

1. Use the scrapbooking supplies to decorate the exterior as simply or elaborately as you like.

2. Fill the inside page protectors. You can fill the page protectors with just artwork, or include some photos of your child creating the artwork that’s featured! Now for future Mother’s Days, other holidays, or whenever we feel creative, we can start filling up these books. And while you’re making one for the moms in your life, don’t forget to make one for yourself too! I can see myself filling this up with cards, notes, and artwork for years to come.

    What a great idea! My 2 year old and I do art everyday and I wasn’t sure what to do with each piece! I certainly don’t have enough room on my refridgerator. Thanks so much!

    Awesome idea. I like that it is not a hardcore scrapbook, makes it less intimidating for a scrapbooking novice like myself 🙂

    This is a genius way to preserve children’s art. Most of the memories and fun are in the process, and not the end result. Brilliant juxtaposing the pictures process to the end result.

    I’ve saved all kinds of my kids art work, but haven’t done anything with them. I love the binder idea. If will be so easy to customize for each child with these binders. Thanks for the idea!

    I’d love it if you linked up to my Making a Home linky.
