Daycare Album Project: Part Two

As promised, I'm back to share a little more more of my daycare album project I've been working on. I won't bore you with photos of all of the pages, since it's 95% photos. But I thought I would just quickly share the divider pages for the three other years I have completed. 

The first two years that I picked to start this entire project was 2007 and 2008. I'm not sure if I had a reason for picking those years. But I do know that between those two years, I had a massive amount of photos. I was really into photography during that time, and I had tons of kids around me at all times. I was also super good about editing my photos, as opposed to a few other years where I'm going to have to stop and edit photos before I can even think about printing them.

I don't think I mentioned this in yesterday's post, but for my 6x12" divider pages, I actually trimmed down large page protectors for these. While there are actual 6x12" page protectors out there, I happen to have a ton of the full 9x12" protectors, and I was pretty sure I would never get around to using that many. So I simply stuck my 6x12" patterned paper inside the protector, machine stitched along the side of the paper, and then trimmed off the excess with my trimmer. 

  

After finishing up 2007 and 2008, my next choice to work on was 2015 and 2016. These years contained mostly phone photos. With a small handful of DSLR photos mixed in. There are definitely some phone photos that aren't the best quality, as it wasn't until a year and a half ago that I finally got myself a real iPhone, instead of using an Android or an older hand me down iPhone. But, photos are photos, and I'll use the low quality ones over not having any photos at all. 

  

So, that's where I left off on this album project about a month ago. I mentioned yesterday that I did just order my photos for 2013, and there are all of 32 photos for the entire year. Kind of sad. Lol. Seeing as how there are so few photos for that year, I'm not quite sure why I haven't taken care of them and worked them into the album. I think 2009 will be my next year to tackle. 

I'll be back on Thursday to share an updated look at my girl's school albums ;)

Loving these daycare albums. Such a great way to document and dress up a large volume of photos. Still can't believe how many kiddos you've watched over the years. :)

What a great way to keep track of all the little ones you've cared for. I love the way you've done the dividers with the same design, just different materials.

Thanks for sharing!
