Preserving the Everyday Memories

February 24, 2015 by Aliesha

I take a lot of photos with my cell phone, and I love to share the little, everyday memories on Instagram!  I’ve uploaded well over 1500 Instagram photos since I got the app almost three years ago, and I’ve always wanted to find a way to print them out inexpensively and easily!

I learned about Chatbooks from another blogger, and I was super excited to get started printing out my Instagram collection!  It’s incredibly easy to make books (i.e., they do all the work for you!), and each book is just $8!  You download the app, then import your photos… easy peasy!

Chatbooks-1

I started a subscription service with Chatbooks, which means that every time I fill a new book (60 photos), they’ll send it to me automatically (after I give it a glance and approve it)!  You can choose to exclude any photos you don’t want to print in the book.  Shipping is always free when you do a subscription!

Chatbooks-2

It’s so fun to preserve the everyday memories… that time I took the girls to the pet store when I was super pregnant with Jude… or that time CC started eating a peanut butter sandwich like a big girl.

Chatbooks-3

Or what I learned in my quiet time that morning… or what my kids looked like at 10:30AM that morning in May.Chatbooks-4The kids love looking through the books too and seeing how they’ve changed and grown!  It’s much more fun (and accessible to them) than scrolling through a phone gallery!

Chatbooks-5Oh, and this great wire basket (that is the perfect size) was just $3 in the Target Dollar Section!

If you’d like to get started preserving your everyday memories captured through Instagram, here is a code you can use!  Use code “AVWZFQ2E” at Chatbooks to get your first book free (when you sign up for a subscription), saving you $8!

Happy “lazy scrapbooking”!  😉

      Thanks! I think they’re a steal… and they are so fun to look through!

    This is such a great idea! I think it’s more convenient sometimes to have pictures printed out instead of searching them out on the computer/cell phone. These look really cute and I can’t believe how inexpensive they are!

      That’s true! And I also expected them to cost more. Pleasant surprise!

    I’ve been looking for a storage bin to store mine in. Love the one pictured here, where did you get it?

      With Chatbooks, you can add photos from mutiple sources (like Facebook or your phone’s camera roll).
