If you are like me you might not have scrapbooked your own childhood Halloween memories.
Why not?
There’s a few stumbling blocks. Poor photos, or lack of photos might frustrate you. Luckily I have some ideas that will coax your Halloween memories out of your mind and onto the layout!
3 Tips for Scrapbooking Your Halloween Memories
1. Use whatever photos you may have.
They might not be amazing, but at least you have them. And besides, a photo is worth a thousand words, right? 😉
If you don’t have a photo…
- Use images of similar costumes.
- Find embellishments that show the type of costumes you wore.
- If your children have worn similar costumes show photos of them and talk about you wore the same thing.
- Use a photo of Halloween decorations. It doesn’t have to be an old photo, you are just creating the setting!
2. Share memories of your costume.
- What did you wear?
- Who planned your costume?
- Who made the costume?
- What was your favourite costume?
3. Share memories of trick or treating or parties.
- What did you love about it?
- What types of candy did you receive?
- What were your favourites, or the things you didn’t like?
- What kinds of activities did you do every year?
- Do you continue those traditions now?
Don’t forget! By sharing your story you are sharing a piece of yourself. I encourage you to share your Halloween stories today!
