One of my "tricks" to make sure I get stories to scrap each moth is to make a list of Photo Prompts! I know if I take these photos- the stories will flow easier! I'm sharing my October Prompts as a downloadable PDF on the ForeverJoy Blog [here] - do you have any special photos you just know will spark your October Stories?
What a wonderful list of prompts, Renne! You've got me thinking already. Thanks! I've taken a few pictures - I photographed my new fall pillows, my little plaid pumpkins and my fall front door wreath.
I love this list of prompts. We don't 'do' Halloween here so great to see prompts not involving that.
LOVE changing up pillows! I have a tiny home- so changing them makes a BIG difference! I've found a great way to do this for next to nothing is by ordering pillow covers from Amazon!
Pillow covers are the best! I found a simple sewing pattern for them so I made a bunch for the different holidays and seasons
I love the idea of pillow covers! Amazon has some adorable ones! I was out the other day and found mine for 5.99 each and just couldn't resist buying 2 new ones!
I'm not great at sewing either, so I love that the pattern is just one rectangle of fabric and two straight lines of stitching. Not too much for me to screw up! haha
Care to share your pattern? I never thought to just make covers so I don't have to store a bunch of full pillows. Brilliant and I'd have an excuse to use my new sewing machine for something other than mask!
That is such a great photo prompt list Renne! I don't know why, but I struggle to scrapbook about fall stuff now that my kids are older and not wanting to go to the pumpkin patch anymore. They don't even dress up for Halloween anymore. {sob} This is a great way to still get to play with all the fun fall kits!
These are great ones Renne...people in another group laughed when I said I usually try to get a shot or two of all the PSL items in a grocery store. I don't buy almost any of them but it is a fun craze - still. And it's a photo!!! Sadly my sewing machine gets so little use that I have to find the manual to figure out how to do the bobbin thingamajig every few years.
I am approaching that now- but they humor me for now I definitely miss the days when they were younger... Oh! I do this EVERY season! I think it gives a great look at what's the "norm" for that tiome of year- maybe we should make it a challenge?? I LOVE that idea!! here's one of my Autumn grocery trip- MALLOMARS!! YUM! They only come to the shelves in the Autumn and stay thru Spring. And mums- #dontjudgeme
