Four fun ways to capture life’s memories
(ARA) – Life is full of unique experiences and memorable events. But often our most significant moments are fleeting. So we rely on memories — and the tradition of storytelling — to keep them alive.
Throughout the ages, women have found ways to preserve their family histories and honor loved ones. From keeping a journal to creating a beautiful charm bracelet that captures special memories, here are four fun, tried-and-true ways to tell your story:
Use photography
Images, like photographs and drawings, are great ways to remember events in our lives. Since the invention of cameras, women have used photo albums to capture events and illustrate the stories of their families and friends. Today, many women have taken up scrapbooking, using photographs, artifacts and well-chosen words to create one, comprehensive story.
Modern technology has allowed women to take scrapbooking a step further: a blog can be a “virtual scrapbook.” It can incorporate images, slideshows and written anecdotes — and be personalized in many different ways. In addition, services such as Facebook, Flickr and Snapfish offer ways to create photo albums on the Internet. These services let you share your pictures with family and friends.

Find the artist within. You may not think you have one, but deep down inside you know there is a part of you that wishes you can
quit your day job and just paint.
Well, we know you have to pay the bills (including the rent) somehow, so its best that you keep working. How about taking an evening art course?
Artspace in downtown Raleigh offers adult art classes in painting, drawing and bracelet making. If you really insist that you aren’t an artist and you can’t so much as glue macaroni to cardboard, there are opportunities to volunteer with art classes, or you can just view the work of others in the galleries.
