WE have pretty much been doing nothing and going no where during these *&^% covid times, and Im doing a project 52 as always. I'm running out of ideas of pictures! Can you help?
 
Girl, I feel you! If it weren't for getting a new cat, I would have almost no photos the past couple of months.

My old standby's for when I can't think of anything are....
Family selfies and pet photos
What we're eating
What we're reading/ watching/ listening to
Get a family member to send pictures from their work or school day
The weather outside
Seasonal milestones like turning on the heat for the first time
Screenshots of text messages
Groceries on the counter or what your fridge looks like
Pictures of a routine, like what do you do each morning, etc.
Take photos of the inside of your house (I've lived in 3 different places since I started PL and these are fun to look back on)
I know these kinds of everyday photos can feel kind of boring, but they're so interesting to look back on.

Another thing you might try, but this can also be kind of sad, so it might not be good for right now, is to look back at your old PL pages and make a list of ideas from that. Has anything changed with over time, or seasonally? Are you decorating or cooking differently? Maybe recreate some of your older photos to show how things have changed. But if you think looking back at happier times might be sad, forget all of the above :)
 
On Facebook there is a site called Shoot It: 365 Photo a Day Challenge. I did a it for two years and is quite fun. It gives you ideas for each day to take a photo of. It also helps learn new photo skills.

These are some great ideas! Thank you!!!!! I especially like going through the old ones and while I will find the sad times of good byes, I'm sure I can find some inspiration too!
 
Photos of each room in house and document special memories of that room
Photos of favorite item in each room and document it's meaning
Photos of how you decorate each season... Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentine's Day, Easter
and what is special about some of the things you put out
Articles of clothing and how style has changed from your youth or by season
What you eat, favorite recipe, favorite show, binging, anything you craft, how you do something now and how you did it differently pre-covid


LOL! I have tons of ideas. I just wish I had time to scrap some of it.
 
Susan,

Love Jen's list... and ideas from everyone else... Here are a few extras...

Screen prints of newpaper headlines (and how you feel!)
Events of the day
Watching church online
Books you have been reading
Movies you have been watching
What you found in the closet you were cleaning out (haha)
Conversations with someone special (pick someone, call them, then talk about the conversation)
Zoom calls (and screen prints of the screens)
Your scripture of the day / week
A year ago today....
New perspectives on life
Use a lot of journal cards :)


Here are a couple of pages where I used mostly external things. Most of them actually have journaling pages that go with them.
