Don’t know what to do with your special baby keepsakes? Frame them!

It’s amazing how quickly time flies after having a baby. The first few sleepless and arduous nights feel like they are lasting an eternity, but before you’ve had time to blink, you’re celebrating your little one’s first birthday, watching them stumble their way across the room on their own and left wondering where the time has gone. And unbelievably the following years seem to disappear even faster……
But as parents, we’re left with some very precious items that remind us of those first days, items that we will cherish forever. The first scan picture, the hospital bracelet, a first size nappy, the baby’s favourite outfit, the first shoes, a special comforter or small toy, christening gifts and keepsakes. The list goes on.
Whatever the items are, they are important and it feels almost a sin to hide them away in a box in the attic, rarely to be looked at again. This is why I opted for a Keepsake Frame – I didn’t want to let go of things that reminded me of such special times and so instead, I framed them.
With Keepsake Frames the options are endless. You can use a frame without a mount and create a scrapbook theme using mounted photos, decorative accessories as well as baby items, such as shoes.
A single opening, wide, mount can help create a modern and contemporary effect if you are using a simple display inside. I.e. one pair of shoes, a small teddy, an outfit.
Or a mount can be used to create sections in the display: Two openings can split a photo with a baby item such as a shoe or soft toy. With three openings you could display a photo, a scan picture and a small soft toy.
If you are not particularly creative but know what you want to frame, the process is simple. All you need to do is choose a keepsake frame that best complements the item you wish to frame.
If you are creative you can use different coloured and patterned craft papers instead of backing boards and can personalise the mount.
You can style your keepsake frame so that it will complement any room in the house. What better way to cherish those memories?
The best keepsake frames to use are deep rebate box frames, rather than those with a normal frame face and a box built onto the back. Not only do the deep rebate box frames look much better, but they can also be left to either stand on a windowsill or shelf or can be hung on the wall.
Keepsake Frames do not have to be limited to baby keepsakes but make excellent display pieces following a wedding and a more interesting alternative to a standard wedding photo. In a wedding keepsake frame you could include a photo, an invitation, dried flowers, ribbons and anything else that was used for the wedding or represents the wedding theme.
So what are you waiting for? Now all you have to do is decide what to frame.

Why Should You Buy a Baby Bib?
Baby bibs are extremely important for a child. They protect the child’s clothes from getting dirty and hence eliminating the need to wash his clothes again and again. Small babies are too young to understand the implications of dirtying their clothes. That is why baby bibs are so important. If you can keep your baby dry and not expose him to the water all the time, it will be really great for the baby.
