"Paris Streets" by Evelyn McCorristin Peters 2009

You've come back from your wonderful vacation. You've just experienced a moment you will want to always remember. Look at the beautiful pictures you've taken, and those little pieces of ticket stubs from plays, museums, even the metro in Paris. 

Do the pictures make it to an album, or even to your computer? At least when we all had to develop film you were pretty sure to actually have the physical picture in your hand at one point. So many of us never even get them off the memory cards! All those cool little stubs you saved from events, they usually end up in a box somewhere. And, yes, you will eventually, some day see them again. Most likely when you're looking frantically for something else and stumble upon them. Hopefully you will take the time to go throught them and remember...but you might not. 

"Chagall Ceiling at the Paris Opera House" by Evelyn McCorristin Peters 2009

I'm a bit good about doing all that, most of the time. But I wish I could enjoy these reminders a bit more often. So I took some time and wondered how I could do that.  

Memories and Magic is my answer! My shop is small...it's waiting for you to share your memories so I can make some magic just for you. I've set up some examples for you to see. My trips to Paris, my sister and her beautiful daughter Molly at the shore. I am also including photographs from my travels to share with you. But really I'm waiting for you...what would you like to remember that brings you joy. 

So in this coming season defined by joy I would love to share some of mine with you. Pssst...this also makes a wonderful customized gift for a special someone. But hurry, these special days are fast approaching!
