Places are important to us. Places bring people together. Places hold memories.

Your photo + Your memories = Your special place created by me in cut-paper collage.

We all have a place that holds a special memory. It may be a home you lived in as a child, it may be your grandparents’ home,

your first grown-up home, your present home or your dream home.

Or maybe it’s a barn, a special vacation place, a cabin, a boat or even a tent.

It’s about the memories.

Your special place may be on a lake or in the mountains.

“That’s just refreshing art”

Anna M.

Your special place to remember could be in your local hometown.

Maybe that place you remember needs a little fixing up.

What special place do you hold in your memory? A special memory is just the beginning.

Remember That Place showcases that memory in a one-of-a-kind art piece made just for you, as unique as that place you remember.

Because each collage is made with hand-painted, found and collected papers plus your memory, there will be only one like it.

REMEMBER THAT PLACE collages make unique, personal and meaningful gifts for new homeowners, home sellers, Christmas, birthdays, anniversaries and more.

What about a gift to yourself?

FAQs

How can I make the collage about my memories?

Here are some questions to get those memories going: Where was this place? In what season do I remember it best? What kinds of trees, flowers and plants grew there? Any special activities you enjoyed at this place? Any animals or pets? I may not be able to include everything, but your answers help to show what was memorable to you. Contact me with your requests and we will talk over the details.
