An award-winning, beautiful fabric and gold foil blocked memory journal, filled with over 60 fun and inspiring questions, carefully compiled to make it easy for your close friend or relation to tell their story and share their wonderful memories and aspirations with you. It’s a priceless gift that’s returned to you once completed!
This journal is perfect for a great friend or your aunt, uncle, cousin, husband or wife – there are many possibilities! The luxurious finish, complete with a gold ribbon bookmark, makes for a wonderfully timeless keepsake that is classic, but contemporary. All in their precious handwriting and on their own or with you, your friend can recall moments, funny stories and memories that make up their life. The thoughtful questions are designed to help them enjoy telling their story, describing the past and the present, as well as thinking about the future. Alongside their handwritten memories, there’s also space for them to add photos and memorabilia too.
Once filled in, this journal will be a wonderful record of your friend’s story, one that can be treasured forever. It’s a great way to ask those questions that you may never think or get the chance to ask in everyday life, but the answers to which are invaluable.
What are some of their favourite things? Find out more about some of the experiences and adventures they have had and what they enjoyed. Understand more about their memories of the times you have spent together, their relationship with you, as well as their hopes and dreams for the future. Everyone has stories to share about their amazing life and it’s so important to find ways to capture and treasure them.
When you get their completed journal returned to you, it’ll be one of the most emotive gifts you’ll ever receive, and therefore this is quite possibly one of the most valuable gifts you’ll ever buy.
Some example questions from this journal:
•What were your favourite childhood toys or games?
