With all of us having smartphones, it has become a habit for most of us to click as many photos as possible. Although most of us share some of these photos on Instagram, the other images remain on our laptops. We are so busy in our lives and creating new memories that we hardly look at these photos the second time.
When it comes to photos taken some 10-20 years back, most of us have forgotten about them as they are stored in our photo albums, and we don't remember most of them. However, there is something other in these old photos, taken by cameras, which photos clicked by high-quality smartphones cannot replace. Read on to know what you can do with these old photos.
Engraved Pieces
You can preserve these photos by getting them engraved in crystals. The engraved crystal will give a new lease of life to your old photo, which will look beautiful in the crystal's light. This piece can be a great gift for your loved one. You can get any picture close to your heart engraved with laser technology, and the picture will appear in 3D, which will act as a beautiful showpiece for your home.
Make a collage
Making a collage is easy. Simply take all the old pictures and paste them on a sheet of paper haphazardly. This will be like a memory book; each picture will take you on a different memory lane. If you are planning to make a big collage, your whole family can be a part of this project.
Create Your Family Tree
If you have old pictures of elders, it can be an opportunity for your children to learn about their ancestors. Together you can prepare a family tree with photos of your elders. Don't forget to find the name of your elders. It might take some research and phone calls, but, in the end, you will have a beautiful family tree and feel closer to your family members after knowing a little more about them.
Decorate Your Wall
If you have a boring wall, you can simply take a few photographs and get them framed in different frames of the same size. Each photo will have a different story, and soon it will become popular among the guests who visit your place.
Make Calendar
You can customize a calendar and get your old photos added to it. Each month can have a different picture, and you can even choose the font and color of the calendar. Whenever you turn a page, you will be filled with beautiful memories related to the photograph. You can cut out the photos and preserve them once the year ends.
Pillowcases
If you want the old photos of your family members to always be with you, you can get them printed on a pillowcase. Ensure that these images are not too small, or they will come blurred when printed.
