Halloween lasts one evening, but the costumes are worth keeping for years. By Thanksgiving, though, the photos are buried under a few hundred other pictures on your phone. Here are four easy ways to keep this year's costumes somewhere you will actually see them.

Keep this year's costumes past November

A "costumes through the years" photo book. Give each Halloween its own two-page spread: your favorite costume photo, a few more from the night and a caption with their age and what they dressed up as. Our 8×8 hardcover photo book is $39.99 with 20 pages included and spine text, so the books look lovely lined up on a shelf. You can add extra pages for $0.75 each (in 8×8 books) as the years pile up, and names, dates and captions cost nothing extra.

Mini books for the grandparents. Mini photo books are pocket-size 3.5-inch square softcovers that come in sets of three, so there is one for you and one for each set of grandparents. A set of three books of up to 50 pages is $28, and you can make them in the SimplePrints app or in your browser at create.simpleprints.com.

A desk print of the best shot. One perfect photo from this Halloween, printed on metal and standing on a solid wood stand. Metal desk prints come in 4×4 for $17.99 and 5×5 for $21.99.

Next year's wall calendar. Put this year's costume photo on next October's page, so it turns up again just as everyone is planning their next costume. Then add the family birthdays as custom dates, so every month has someone to celebrate. Our wall calendars are 8.5 × 11 inches, start at $29.99 and can begin in any month you choose.
