Hiya, what do you all do with the old school photo's of your children? I have quite a collection gained from 3 children and photo's taken every year when they were at school. Mine are just sitting in the cupboard. I am thinking of putting several in one frame from each child but that would not work as sometimes 2 were at the same school and pic's taken together.
Prehaps an album would be best? but then that is put back in the cupboard.

If winter comes, can spring be far behind?

I'm not sure what would be the best thing to do with them. DS1 & DD's school photos are either:
- some framed and hung up
- some in an album
- all are scanned into photo file to save
It goes get to be a lot of photos - and I'm loathe to bin them, even the extras!MSE mum of DS(7), and DS(4) (and 2 adult DCs as well!)DFW Long haul supporters No 210:snow_grin Christmas 2013 is coming soon!!! :xmastree:0 -
I have kept 1 single & 1 class (and team if there is one) photo for both DS's, they are in a Jiffy bag in my memory box....
However, now they are both over 21, I'm planning to "build" an album of photos for each of them for their next birthdays, by scanning all my old photos in (including school ones), sorting out the ones I want & ordering a Jessops printed album0 -

Thats the trouble as my youngest is now 20. If I put them back on the walls in a frame the stream of teen friends would see. I think he would be a bit red of face to see them comment over when he was in infant school.
I think they will have to remain in the cupboard for now.If winter comes, can spring be far behind?

My friend does memory books for people as presents for wedding's, birthdays etc. She starts with the year they are born and has a page for every year since then. School photos are ideal especially since they are usually dated. On each page she puts a photo and tries to find something in the news or something that was invented. People love these - they are so thoughtful and very cheap to make!!0
