I love paper crafts. I love decorating. I love family traditions.
Lets combine them all for an awesome craft! Grab photos of your kiddos from past Halloween nights. Scrap one page (I did 8.5″ X 8.5″) for each year. Use chip board so the page is super sturdy. Hot glue a ribbon on the back to hang as a part of your Halloween decor.
I’m going to do each of my little ones individually. By the time they are old enough to care about Halloween I’ll have loads of “memory frames” to decorate my walls. And because the chip board is so thin it won’t take up too much space in storage for next year! I thought of doing this at the beginning of the month and I have been so excited to actually do it… I’m thinking I’ll do a family shot also and do something similar with our Christmas card photos! Geeze, I could do a family shot of every holiday and never have to buy new decorations again.
I would love to see how you do this so send me a link!!

That is an awesome idea! I’ve been wanting to decorate my walls with family pics, but frames are so expensive I haven’t gotten around to it yet – this would be so much cheaper…and funner!
