Our Weekly Tip: Celebrate Their Stories

Our Tip of the Week: When you’re planning a memorial ceremony, it can be difficult to pick the right photos of a loved one. Each life is rich and complex, which is why we think this walkable photo album craft makes for a special memorial ceremony experience.

How-to Suggestion: This DIY project works best in an outdoor setting with trees, but there’s no reason why you can’t alter it to fit with your (indoor) needs. The craft is based around telling a story: What were some memorable moments in your loved one’s life? How did you meet? Create a few divisions for different periods of his or her life, and devote a tree to each one. Hang framed photos from those times on his or her designated tree to create a walk down memory lane.
