Weâve just done that in the form of a calendar for the grandparents, but weâre talking a need for more long term cold storage.

This is a great idea.
Every year my wife and I pick out our fave photos of the year across both of our phones (because thatâs where they all get taken these days!), and when Snapfish do their big yearly sale at the start of Jan we get a hardcover photo book made up.
It helps to have a folder that we just dump photos we particularly like into as the year goes on, makes things quick come book compiling time.
Just this weekend gone our niece was staying with us, and she loved going through our little collection of photo books on the shelf, and I admit I enjoyed it too! I love the experience of browsing a book or album of printed photos.

A long time ago people used to get âslidesâ made out of their photos and would have slide shows at home. Slides are quite durable and in a pinch you could even have a lantern show.

Oh donât I know it - back before digital photography became âa thingâ I used to love taking photos using slide film, and still have my little slide projector in the shed somewhere (along with a couple of cameras to take said photos).
That said, man my slide nights were boring AF =)

Thatâs a lovely idea!
