Project 365 is so special! I had a Groupon voucher for a Printerpix photo book to use up quite soon, so last week end I decided to put the first 6 months of my project into a book!
Today it arrived in the post. :)
Oh it is lovely.
This is from April. http://365project.org/sarah19/365/2011-04
And even though I can't see the names of all my project 365 friends when I look at the pictures I do smile as I remember some of the comments.
This project came along at a really tough time in my life and has brought me so much joy! I will be eternally grateful for something positive from each day and for all the fantastic comments from so many supportive people! Thanks so much!
What a brilliant idea! And I fully endorse what you say about 365 being so life-enriching. It's so important to focus on what is good and positive in the world - there's more than enough of the other stuff swirling around! Thanks, Sallie, and all you other 365-ers, for being such an encouragement to me too.
Oh I like this!! Those photos look great - it looks like you've 'scrap-booked' them. Did it take ages putting it together? I don't have all the photos I've posted stored together - did you copy them from your project?

So nice to get your responses!
It did take a while to put together but I am now a bit more organised in the way I store photos for the project month by month. Some I had to download from my album online as I couldn't find them and yes it did take a while. But with the Printerpix you just select the photos, upload them and there are different options for backgrounds and layouts. Some have been cropped differently to what is seen online but they really give the flavour and joy of the project.
Some one else has had a photo album made from their 365 project & I remember looking at it & being really impressed ! This is lovely Sallie & a great memento of 365. I agree with all you say about 365 & the community spirit is tremendous.. I am so glad I am doing it & that is thanks to you Sallie !! I saw your entries on FB & followed on from that, now me & most of my family are drawn into it looking a my offering each day !! I might try doing an album sometime too ! You could perhaps show me if you come down this way!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As I am approaching my final 100, I've been thinking I don't want to lose these pictures and posts. I want to turn them into a book somehow, and my online photo processor seems to have something similar to this. I also know that Creative Memories also does books too. What a great idea! As for 365, I agree- I become very animated when I tell people about the folks I've met here and how encouraging it is. I am so glad to have met you and so many others and like you, look forward to seeing everybody's comments! Lovely post Sarah!
