My sister is doing a Hungry Caterpillar's theme for her 1st grade kids. She asked me to make a bookmark for each of her kids to help them remember the goals they set for themselves in reading. I love how Heritage Makers helps me personalize any project I may think of. They have thousands of pieces of artwork that make it easy for me to put projects like this together. What is great as well is that I can share this with anyone who may have a HM account. Then in turn that person can copy this exactly or change it to fit their style. The possibilities are endless and they are so much fun. I can not wait to hear how the kids react to this bookmark.

Real Memories

How many of you take photos? Of those of you who take photos how many of you are sharing them? Three years ago I was like many of you. My photos were saved on a flash drive and from time to time I would plug the flash drive into my computer when I or my children wanted to see pics of themselves. I really did not have any other options. I lacked the space, time and money to scrapbook, and I did not want to just print the photos off to put into a generic album or a inflexible album from a photo store. The flash drive seemed like my easiest and best option. Then a friend invited me to a Heritage Makers Party. I had never heard of Heritage Makers, but I thought what the heck it was worth a shot. After my friend explained it to me and I got to look at and hold the product I new Heritage Makes was for me. My head was swimming with ideas of things I could create with Heritage Makers. Not to mention I would not have to do it all on my own. They all ready had fully customizable templates that I could use. I was thrilled I would be able to tell the story behind my photos and those memories would be remembered forever because now I had the story written down for all to see.
I became a consultant the next day. Why did I choose Heritage Makers when there is so many other direct sales out there. I chose Heritage Makers because it fit me. I think that when you are looking at direct sales you need to look at a business that fits you. I love taking pictures and I love making memories. I love bringing beauty and character into my home. I wanted to share this amazing company with others and to help others write their stories. Pictures are just that pictures if they do not have a story.
The photo below is a pic of me and my Grandpa. My Grandpa past away when I was only 5 years old. The sadness I felt when he died was very real. Him and I had been very close and I missed him terribly when he past away. A year ago my grandma found this photo and wanted to give it to me. She told me that this pic was one of my Grandpa's favorite pics of him and I. She said that he was till carrying it in his billfold the day he died. Grandma could not remember when this pic was taken, but she did know how special this pic had been to my Grandpa. Can you imagine if this pic would have been just left to stay in that box. My Grandma was the only one who new the story with this picture. Now I can share this picture and the story with it to my kids. I can share a story of family and love.


Through this blog I will show you some of the amazing things I have done with Heritage Makers. Most importantly though I want to show you how you can do the same and help you write your stories. Memories are to precious to be just forgotten and or stuck away. If you do not tell your story then who will?
