Introducing Monthly Themes for 2026: Creative Prompts and Inspiration for Memory Keepers
Welcome to a New Year of Creativity and Reflection
Happy New Year, friends. I’m excited to begin another year of storytelling, reflection, and creative memory keeping with you.
This year, I’m trying something new. Each month in 2026 will have a simple focus word. Think of it as an easy lens you can use for photos, journaling, and scrapbook pages. When you have a theme, you do not have to start from scratch. You can notice everyday moments more easily, then document them with less pressure. You can join in daily, weekly, or just once at the end of the month. One photo counts. Three sentences count. A single page counts.
The 2026 Monthly Themes
Here are the themes we will explore together this year:
January: Growth
February: Love and Connection
March: Renewal
April: Joy in the Everyday
May: Creativity
June: Travel and Adventure
July: Play
August: Rhythms and Routines
September: Learning
October: Wonder
November: Gratitude
December: Magic and Memory
You’ll see these themes on my blog and Instagram each month through reflections, journaling prompts, creative ideas, and product inspiration. My goal is to help you approach memory keeping with calm and purpose, so it feels more meaningful and less overwhelming.
How It Will Work
At the beginning of each month, I’ll share a post that introduces the theme, plus prompts and ideas to help you document it.
Throughout the month, I’ll share quotes, creative inspiration, and gentle reminders to keep the theme in mind.
At the end of each month, I’ll share my Monthly Roundup Prompts, along with tips for pulling your stories together in a simple way.
An Invitation
Whether you’re a scrapbooker, journaler, photographer, or simply someone who wants to pay attention to everyday life, these themes are here to guide you. Use them in a way that fits your season.
If you’d like to follow along, save this post so you can come back to the themes anytime. If you share projects on Instagram, tag them with #roundupyourmemories so we can cheer each other on all year long.
I can’t wait to grow, create, and reflect with you in 2026.
