School Photo Organization

[nicolewi]

I get an 8x10 every year of my kids. Why, I don't know, as I usually throw it in a drawer and put other sizes in frames. I want to get an album for each kid to put their annual school pics and class picture in for each year. It's weirdly hard, as most things turn out to be. All I can find that holds 8x10 is "magnetic"/sticky page, which is supposed to be really bad for pictures. I'd also be able to throw in random soccer team pics, dance pics, etc, that are taken that year if there are any. 

What do you do with school pictures? How do you organize them?

I've been doing the bigger tub with a file folder for each school year so I stick all the pictures in that folder.

I scan them and then they end up in the digital photo book.

The originals are in organizational box with hanging folders by year.

I bought 12x12 scrapbook albums with slide in pages. I mount the photos on white card stock with photo corners. I do two albums - one for me and one for them.

We hang ours up on the wall going up the stairs. Joke’s on us now though - DD1 is in 6th grade and we’ve run out of space.
