Thankful Plates

Barbies? Legos? Family? A pet goldfish? Whatever your kids are thankful for this Thanksgiving, we've got a great way to capture this moment in time with our new Thankful Plates.

Just send us a profile picture of your child along with 6 to 8 things that they are most thankful for and we'll create an instant heirloom for you. Plates are just $35. You can order yours here at our Etsy Holiday Shop.

Scrapboxing

Given the business that we're in, we love creating keepsakes of our family life, but I've never been much of a scrapbooker. Yesterday, while thumbing through the February issue of Martha Stewart Living I came across an article on Darcy Miller's Scrapboxes and I think I may have found my new obsession.

Here's a closer look at a few more of them:I've got boxes and boxes of mementos and photos of our family and I can't wait to begin work on some of these. And wouldn't one look great with a silhouette?

If you're in New York, you can see the exhibit in person at Partner's and Spade.

Start a New Tradition

Looking for an alternative to the Hallmark Keepsake ornaments? Why not start a new tradition this year with a Simply Silhouettes ornament. It's the perfect way to capture this moment in time for your child or a favorite pet.

This year we are offering two styles of ornaments:

White porcelain (2 7/8"circle), complete with its own festive red ribbon for hanging. An assortment of designs are available.

or Silver-plated 100% lead-free pewter (1.5"circle), with a decorative hook for hanging. Frames are double sided – the back can be personalized with the name and date or a personal holiday message.
