Week in the Life is an incredible way to take a snapshot of what one week in your life looks like each year. I love this form of memory keeping because it’s low commitment but allows you to document so many of your everyday stories, photographs, and journaling about what your days look like, what moments are happening, what your life looks like, and what’s important to you in that season of life. It’s an especially fun project to do because if you do Week in the Life each year, you can look back and see how your life changes throughout each year.
I believe memory keeping is an incredibly powerful tool to help support mental wellbeing and health (I wrote a whole blog post about why everyone should have a creative hobby here!) This project is one approach to scrapbooking and memory keeping that I fully endorse because it’s fun, easy to participate in, and really awesome to reflect back on.
The premise of the project is that you document each day of the week- what it looks like throughout different times of each day, for a whole week. It gives a good lens into what a week in your life looked like that year or season. There are many different ways to do the project and I’ve created a couple of freebies for you to download if you’d like to try Week in the Life for yourself. Download them in the resource library, join the email newsletter to get the password.
I hope you have fun using these free digital elements to document your Week in the Life! Let me know if you’ll be using the downloads, I would love to hear about it and your approach to the project.
Happy making,
Laura
