Ever wished someone had prepared a box of memories so you could see what life was like back then?
Well, now you can create a unique timetin for you and future generations to dip into and relive the good old days of today.
Each timetin contains some suggested instructions on how to make the most of your timeless gift. There is a specially designed timebook tailored to each timetin prompting you to gather different types of information. These include cost of goods, news items, TV programmes, trends and many more relating to baby, wedding, birthday and starting school.
There is also a list of items you can gather and seal up in your timetin. These include newspapers, price lists and items linked to your tin – baby bootees, wedding items, birthday cards, text books from school… and many more. The tins are tall enough to hold a magazine or folded newspaper and wide enough for a DVD in it's case!
Seal your timetin with the special labels provided and the date you have chosen. Deciding when to reopen the timetin and relive the memories is an important part in creating your timetin. Leave it long enough for memories to fade and life to have changed – maybe five or ten years. Choose a special anniversary or point in life to open your timetin.
Store your timetin somewhere safe and dry. Maybe hidden away in the loft – just make sure you do not bury it!
Open your timetin at the time you decided - return down memory lane… laugh at how good your predictions were… compare then with now…
We can send you a reminder to open your timetin and enjoy the memories you collected if you return the card that’s inside the timetin. Appreciate the value and fun a timetin can bring!
