Scrapbook Your Job? Why Not?

My after-school child care/ B & G Club jobs
Nothing fancy, just a title and newspaper clipping
Yup, why not? It's Your Story.  So you can scrapbook the nitty-gritty details of life; these are your trophies! I saved not just photos, but certificates, documents and programs from all of my jobs to be placed in future scrapbooks.

With or without saved workplace mementos and photographs, you can make scrapbook pages to

  • commemorate, celebrate or dignify the hard work you put in 
  • showcase your accomplishments and promotions 
  • remember special bosses and colleagues 
If you saved such stuff, hooray! If not, you can scrapbook your job. Ideas:
  • Use photos of yourself during that time frame.
  • Look in craft stores for stickers that symbolize your work, . No luck in craft stores? Try looking for illustrations online, like graphics of the products you sold for a retail career, or lawnmowers for a landscaping business. Creativity is key. 
  • Photograph signs and buildings where you worked. Find branding  from your workplace's website, save to your computer and print them out.

There are many ways to work around not having saved mementos or having just-right photographs for scrapbooking  your job or any other event. Email me for ideas.
Again, nothing splashy or impressive.
It is Good-For-You Scrapbooking!
