Carmina's quest for the perfect display for her treasured mementos led her to an extraordinary find

Carmina was looking for the best way to hang treasured pictures and mementos from a keepsake. I felt it was time to bring them out and display them on my wall. I saw many options, from cork boards to felt boards , but I didn’t want an ordinary board hanging there. I wanted it to be part of my wall décor, placed above my desk where I sit daily—something I could look up at and be reminded of past travels and accomplishments. Some people keep them in photo albums or store them digitally, but I wanted mine on display. What caught my eye from an ordinary felt board something had a roof which remind me a house.

Memories Kept in a Scrap book or Slide show

When I was single I loved making scrap books for my friends and give it to them for their graduation, birthday or just appreciation of our friendship. In those days that was the in thing making scrap book and combining photo and cutting pictures from the magazine.

Scrap book is not the trend. People no longer develop pictures and put in a photo album. All pictures are combined into a CD.

We share our pictures in social media or make it into a slide show through our computer or phone.

Even though that seems to be the trend I still find time to make a video of my family or close friends in celebration of their birthday, wedding or just the appreciation of what our friendship means to me. I want the people I give too cherish the memories we had shared with each other. 

Now, we don't need to keep it in a DVD we can keep it in our phones and keep playing it over again.

I love taking the time combining pictures together and finding the right song that seems to be apart what I feel toward them.

Here is a sample video of what I had made for my mom when she had turned 75 years old.

These pictures are taken of my mom when she was young and single at that time with her family.
