Hello All,

I was doing some shopping, and it made me think of something that has been very useful for our household.

I got one of those mini photo books. You know the one that is about 4x5inches with lots of pages in it. In this I put paint swatches from the house, pictures or color swatches of the curtains or furniture, Window measurements, Birthdays, anything that could be used if out shopping and saw a special sale say like on window blinds. I could never remember the measurements, but with my shopping book all I had to do was get it out. You just write down information and slip it into the picture slots.

Also if you dont remember everyones sizes this is a great place to put that information. And if someone says I would like something for Christmas, or a Birthday or something like that I write that down on their page, and come the right sale, or when I am trying to think of what to give someone, I can look it up in the shopping book.

Hope this helps someone
