this is truly the hardest thing to do....but do you must....keep only the best or the most original pieces....or most sentimental...but i would suggest to use your digital camera and scanner to their upmost....take pictures of the works ....take pictures of the child at the time it was created and write notes for scrap books pages.....this is something i should have done more of but didn't//// so looking back our digital devices make it much easier to remember things with less boxes...:)....


more over you can remake it into postcards and posters etc and share with others....


happy creating
