Last time I went perusing through my favorite store Anthropologie, I happened upon this little book sitting on their shelf… and promptly imagined it on mine.
First, I was drawn in by the exquisite design which included gilded edges:
I could have easily justified the purchase, using it as a desk prop alone.
But when I ventured inside its pages, I realized it was an upgraded version of our Table Talk cards.
The same type of questions, but a way to record everyone’s answers… for the next 5 years.
A little book of memories!

Thank you for the suggestion!!! I just went and ordered one for our family and one for my sister's family. What a fun and special way to record memories.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty and fun book! That will be so much fun to look back years from now and see all of the memories you recorded. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! The book is beautiful and will hold all sorts of fun memories!
ReplyDeleteOh I love this! There is always a little something wonderful at Anthropologie.

That is a very special book Rie. Just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteImagine looking through it in years to come.
We don't have Anthropologie in Australia, but from what I've seen on US blogs, it looks like a great shop.
Happy Christmas to you and your amazing family Rie! x
Rie, you always find, do, create...the most inspirational things! This is a perfect book for your family...I only wish I had found one years ago to record when my boys were younger.
ReplyDeleteThe new projects on your home are beautiful ~ I wish you and your family a wonderful Christmas...full of blessings.
The book is gorgeous and such a find. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet and practical idea.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, Rie.
Fondly,

Ordering it from Amazon today! Super cool Journal!
ReplyDeleteLooks like I need to take a trip to Anthropologie. There is another book that I think that I would like to get too. It is called A Line A Day. I think it would be nice to have one for each of my children where I would write down something funny that they said or a highlight of the day. Thanks for sharing about your book :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful little book to hold special memories. Love it- Diana
ReplyDeletemight just make a trip to our favorite store...just for one of those great journals!
ReplyDeleteI am going searching. What a gift.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like the best family gift and it is so eye-catching! Table topics is so much fun but this is a brilliant idea. To record all of the precious answers - priceless!
ReplyDeleteLove it Rie!! :) Hugs~Rachel

ReplyDeleteHi Rie...just discovered your blog and love it (you inspire!). i held this book at anthro for 10 minutes. never thought of using it for the whole family (brilliant!). could a book cover be any more delicious?! wanted to tell you i have been using your phrase "my home is my hobby" lately and it so fits when friends/visitors to our home comment on how i change and tweak all the time. what a lovely word gift!
ReplyDeleteWhat a terrific idea. And the book alone is so attractive--bonus!
