Over the years, I’ve discovered that capturing family memories can be so much more creative than just arranging them in chronological photo albums or scrapbooks. Thanks to my FOREVER account, where all my photos are scanned and organized, I can create special keepsakes in minutes.

This year, I’ve been busy making FOREVER calendars—a project that’s been both meaningful and fun. I even had my kids’ and grandkids’ artwork scanned at the FOREVER Digitization Facility. Most of them had no idea I still had these treasures! I make a unique calendar for each recipient. They include scans of their past artwork and memorabilia alongside photos from across the years.

For their birthday months, I like to include pictures from all their previous birthdays. I also add special items and photos that spark conversations and bring a smile—or even a laugh. It’s so rewarding to create something personal and meaningful.

This year, FOREVER introduced the ability to add text to calendar dates, which has been a game-changer. It’s just one more reason I love having important memories digitized, whether they’re photos or other unique items. With the drag-and-drop simplicity of FOREVER, combined with the new Facial Recognition feature, making these calendars was faster and easier than ever.

Creating gifts that can’t be bought off the shelf is the best—and FOREVER makes it so easy!
