Memory jar
Here’s a wonderful idea for the new year: Starting January 1, write good things that happen to you on little pieces of paper.
• Surprise gifts
• Accomplished goals
• The beauty of nature
• “LOL” moments
• Memories worth saving
• Daily blessings
Then on Dec. 31, open the jar and read all the amazing things that happened to you this year.
Create a memory jar for the year. So fun to read at the end of the year!
Joining Our World Tuesday, I Heart Macro Saturday, Macro Monday, Straight out of the Camera Sunday, Weekend Reflections, My Romantic Home, and Saturday Show Off. Try something new while you are here. The “uncategorized” category at right, perhaps?
That is a really cool idea to begin the year… Very creative reflection, in all meanings of the term !
Happy new year !
I think I will start one of these this year. It’s such a lovely remembrance.
Wonderful idea and thanks for sharing ~
Happy New Year,

This is such a nice and good idea! Not too late to make it, even if today is the 7th. We did something similar as our kids turned 1, a box with lots of stuff from their first year, they’ll get it when they’ll turn 18… All the best to you for the new year!
I love this idea. Think I’m going to do it. Thanks.Susan
