Storey's Story: Buddy's Got a Brand New Scanner...

Uncle Bud is quite the funny guy on Facebook... until the naked baby pictures start coming out! Luckily, he has spared me so far on his escapade into the past. He has however given me a really cool idea. I have always been in love with art walls (I think this stems from my mom's entryway full of photos). Anyway, here are two that I really like.

Anyway, Uncle Bud has been posting a bunch of old photos and I have to say that I am in love! I know exactly where these pictures are coming from (I will share a few of my favorites in a bit). Uncle Bud has a huge brown box of pictures in his closet I think that we always like to look through. You could spend hours mulling through the hundreds of photos and never see the same one twice... we have done this numerous times.

It was always fun to engage my Gram in looking at the photos cause she was pretty much the only one who knew who everyone was! And you could tell it made her really happy to look at them. I would like to create some sort of collage with these old photos... but I'm sure that is easier said than done. There would have to be a lot of resizing and these old photos aren't the highest quality. I wonder how large I could blow them up without them looking too grainy? I'm sure a professional photographer could help... but we're looking a pretty expensive project. BUT how cool would it be to have a wall covered in these jewels??
