Calling all the organised mums!! I need your help!
I have so many family photos and I am running out of space on my computer and phone! I do back ups but I would like a really easy to use way to store photos. I want them safe where nobody online could hack them being that my kids are in them, and in some sort of order where they are easy to find when we decide to get nostalgic and look back on them.
What do you use to store you precious family photos? Do you have an organised system? or a specific program you use?
Also - I have so many pieces of art work and special school work from my kids thats currently just sitting in a big plastic box! How do you neatly store your kids work? I don't keep everything, only the special pieces but there is no order to it.

I bought a hard drive for the online Things, and sent all the super important ones to myself by email as well.
As for paper, I Store in different ways. Some are framed and hung up, other are given away, some used as wrapping paper and some put into a scrapbook.
All my photos and documents are on a external hard drive that is only connected when I'm transferring photos to it, the rest of the time I keep it in my valuables box that I can grab in case of an emergency. If they are proper photos (on paper lol) I store them in a photo album but also scan them onto my hard drive. With my kids art work it honestly got too much to keep all of it so I keep only a little bit of it and try to put it in a scrapbook ( we normally just buy a art book and cover it and have their name on it) and write dates ages ect so on their 21 st birthday we can go through it together and it makes it so much easier to store!
