Since I don’t have this week’s page yet, I thought it would be fun to show you some of my spreads from the last few months and show you how easy and versatile this project is.
On a good week, I put two photos and text for the day. This is my typical and ideal way of doing this project. Journaling and photos daily.
But some weeks are really rushed and I don’t get to the project until the end of the week. And sometimes I only have photos.
Sometimes I have a little extra text throughout the week and then mostly photos. I try to make sure to include our family photos each weekend. And then if I have extra weekend photos they might go on that week’s spread or the next.
I am not super worried about lining up the days exactly right. If the photo is from this or last week, it qualifies for any of the days unless it’s really important for me to remember that it was on a particular day.
And very rarely, I have so so many, that I have to add an extra page. I try not to overdo that because it will make my album very bulky.
Having said that I definitely add ephemera from the week. Nathaniel’s letters home, David’s infographic, they all make it into my book!
And there you go, some examples for you until I get the first week down. (This one will likely be high on photos and low on text!)
Moments from this Week 2018 is a year-long project for 2018. You can read more about my projects for 2018 here.
