For the past few weeks I have been trying to think of that perfect bridal shower gift for my daughter. I wanted to be something personal and something that she would always hold dear. I kept looking online for ideas but nothing was screaming at me and then it just came to me when I was sleeping one night. I decided to make her a scrapbook. It will go from the time she was born until she got engaged. I have been going through pictures and finding the perfect little quotes. I am writing little stories and I will write a poem for her too which will be a part of the book. I have this cute story to tell about when she was young and she would pretend she was getting married....but it will be a part of my speech at the wedding so I will leave one page out...and on the day of the wedding after my speech I will give her the missing page to complete the book..... It is a lot of work in a short period of time but it will be so worth it. I hope she loves it as much as I am loving making this for her.

Oh that does sound like THE most perfect gift! And it will be a fun gift as it will prepare you for all of those emotions that will come with the wedding itself and you giving your speech.

Its a wonderful gift! One year my niece wanted me to make her one for Christmas so we started that summer when she came and spent a week with me. All year I took pictures, she loved it but her family loved it more!

That will be a lot of work but it sounds like an absolutely beautiful gift. It may make her cry. I think it's the perfect idea!

You are so sweet. For sure she will love and treasure it. I just want to share what my mom did as her wedding gift to me. She collected my pictures since I was young until the most recent and she attached it on a big piece of special printed paper and she also designed the entire paper with pieces of dried flowers and leaves, bracelets and charms etc. Everything is DIY. And she provided a lot of space for all of my family, relatives and closest friend to write a simple but meaningful message for me and she framed it. And now it is hanging on our wall.
