   Day 18....not really.

So today's challenge is to organize keepsakes (like your kid's artwork and special things).  I have a plan for this....but I am not ready to put it into motion yet.  So far, what I do is to put special things into the kid's baby books (when they will fit).  And we hang their artwork on display in the toyroom as I mentioned here

I do have a plan, though.  Throughout this next year, I plan to make each of my kids their very own keepsake box to put their special treasures in.  (I made one for my niece for her birthday as shown here.)  I am thinking that this will be what we use to put special keepsakes in, but then I worry that they will get ruined if the kids are allowed access to them.  But on the same note....what kind of gift is it if I won't let them touch it.  So I am somewhat torn on this.  What do you all think? 

I also really like Jen's idea over at IHeart Organizing where she uses decorated binders to keep her son's special papers. Maybe I can do both!

What do you guys do with all your kid's "treasures"?  Got any ideas for me???
