I want to make my grandparents a Christmas with family photos. Any ideas?
Some of the photos are genuine, but they are good shots of people just laugh or otherwise, and others involved, but all are welcome. I thought about doing a book or maybe just get some cushions made with the faces of my children in them, but I just do not know. Does anyone have any idea? I selected about 20 images that are of good quality and show the different members of the family.
I bought “Big Lots” these very beautiful glass serving tray on top and cuts four 4×6 photos. I think it only costs around $ 5.00.

Florence. Playing with Art $6 Text by M.S. De Salvia Baldini – colour illustrations by P. Boldrini – publication year: 1995 – hardcover. 160×160 mm. 48 pp. – over 60 photos and illustrations -Psychologists believe that individuals can appreciate Beauty only after they have acquired a measure of intellectual and cultural maturity. But it is a fact that even young children possess a budding artistic sensibility. Their drawings bear out this fact: colours are often associated in remarkable ways. and the shapes of things – the sun. a dog. a house or a tree – are rendered with striking simplicity and originality. Written by an art historian. and based on her experience as a mother. this slim volume successfully stimulates the dawning aesthetic sense and power of observation in children aged 3 to 7. “explaining” to them in a straightforward way some of masterpieces found in Florence’s museums. It is no surprise. then. that “Playing with Art” has become a best-seller. with more than 150.000 copies sold in four years. |

Florence. Guide for the curious traveller $20 Texts by P. de Simonis. G.B. Ravenni and C. Rosati – publication year: 1998 – paperback. 120×220 mm. 308 pp. -Over 700 colour photos and maps -Putting together a guidebook that really does its job is no small challenge. Some guidebooks rely on the appeal of images which “speak for themselves”. while others – more traditionally – offer a text which purports to say and explain everything. In the first case the tourist is highly impressed. but soon discovers that precious little lies behind the painted veil. In the second case he finds himself saddled with a cumbersome tome which is useless in the field. Not to mention the run-of-the-mill straight-line walking tours which take you to a given place but don’t tell you how to make the most of the way back! This volume strikes an ideal balance between text and photographs. offering a truly original solution to the visitor’s queries. Thus. for instance. its itineraries are circular. and the various aspects of the city (art. history. language. local lore and food) do not get lost in the folds of a top-heavy introduction. but are dealt with in a series of numbered sections which are concise and often entertaining. The glossaries and appendixes are invaluable (those on trattorias. wine bars and pastry shops will not fail to delight gourmets). while the “Useful Information” section is nothing short of indispensable. |
