What is a memory box?

At The Memory Shelf we love to create memory boxes. Not only to keep our memories safe for the future but also to keep our memories organised. But what is a memory box?

A memory box (or keepsake box) can mean different things to different people, but essentially it's a place to store your special keepsakes. Baby, birthday, school, art & craft, holidays, photos... the list is endless and all are fantastic to keep and treasure. But often we get so caught up in our day-to-day lives that our keepsakes get lost in the clutter.

But the good news is that organising our memories and keepsakes doesn't have to be hard work. Sort through the keepsakes you've kept for your baby or child, and decided which items you want to keep.  Put them in your memory box and label the box with their name. Keep the box accessible so you can keep adding to it. If you run out of room you can start to organise them by categories... baby, art & craft, birthday and so on.

We will be sharing all our memory box projects here so keep an eye out for more ideas.
