Christmas Keepsake Book and Ideas for Saving Christmas Memories
A Christmas Keepsake book is the perfect way to save those holiday memories throughout the years. A custom made photo album to suit your style and needs from Blue Sky Papers is a safe, simple and chic way to store those memories away to look at another day.
A Christmas Keepsake Book is like keeping a ‘year book’ or ‘ledger’ of that year’s Christmas for you to look back on in fondness when you’re old, gray, and can’t remember anything. In the hustle and bustle of the holidays it is easy to forget the little things, those precious moments and sentiments that touch you, but are fleeting. Your Christmas Keepsake Book will help you record these things and moments in one spot.
We love the idea of keeping a Christmas Card Book but a Christmas Keepsake Book kicks that up a notch, keeping a record of all the nuances and events that happen that holiday season. You can include anything you want in this book, from Christmas cards, to invites, or cute gift tags off sentimental presents- think about the little things you want to remember from this holiday season that otherwise would be forgotten through out time.
On the first page of our Christmas Keepsake Book I put the Christmas card my husband and I are sending out this year, along with a letter about the year we had. My best friend's mom each year sends out a little letter with their Christmas card updating you on things about their family from that year, and I've always thought it was such a cute tradition that I wanted to do with my own family one day.
As the holidays unfold I will be incorporating pictures from this season in life, along with little commentary for each image. Like 'first Christmas tree in our new house' or 'New spiced seasonal cocktail we tried this year, accompanied by the recipe'.
I'm saving space at the back of our Christmas Keepsake Book for all the cute Christmas cards we will be recieving fromfamily and friends this year.
