i figure i can show all the pages off here in the forum, and link to this post in my gallery upload, instead of adding a bajillion uploads :) thanks in advance for looking, i had a lot of fun!

i ended up buying teal lunch bags 4/$1 at walmart today instead of using regular brown lunch bags

thank you, sarah :) i want to make one for my older son's school work for this year...tossed the idea around of using paper grocery bags...until i remembered i hadn't seen any of those in years LOL
 
d00ds. i can't at all take credit for the idea. i would have NEVER thought to use lunch bags this way. LOL!!

thanks for the inspiration! this crabby patty needs to get to BED. ;)
 
Go Laura! That looks fantastic! Good score finding the blue bags - what a difference they make.
 
ty girls! :-*

at walmart (the one near my house, at least) they had these bags near the gift wrap stuffs... i think there were orange ones, red and white. there may have been girl colors, but i wasn't looking for them, so it's possible that i just missed 'em :)
 
That's fabulous! I bought my bags already, but I cannot decide what kind of album to make. With making one every month, I am kinda running out of people to give them to and ideas.
 
mari, what about a baby album w/hospital bracelets, baby socks, etc or school days one with a few favorite papers/drawings?
 
That is a fabulous idea Laura! I love the colored bags (I'm definitely lifting that idea) and it's a great way to save children's artwork. Off to find some colored bags . . . thanks for the inspiration!
 
You did an awesome job on this. My hybrid is my project for today. I think I am turning mine into an animal journal......pics of animals from the zoo with facts about each animal. My boy would love that to look through. :)
 
tara- that sounds like fun, too! or like... a color book.. and collect little things of that color to put in the pockets.

elizabeth- that's cool, too!
 
See all of the art he does at daycare is huge and would never fit in the bag. Maybe I will make something for a my sister or niece to take to concerts or movies tickets or something. IDK. Thanks for the ideas
 
Love the idea of storing kiddie art this way. It came out lovely, especially with the turquoise colour chosen. :-)
 
that is too cute!!! what a great idea!!!! maybe I will do that for my 2 little ones :) I think I am going ot do a "Our New House" and have each of the kids draw a picture and then when we move in, take a picture of each of them in their room and put it in the album :)
