Charlotte LOVES to look at the pictures we have hung around our house. She points and identifies "dada", "mama" and "lola". So I decided I want to make her a book of her family. I didn't want to go the cheap route of using an old 4X6 slide in photo album. I thought about using Shutterfly since I am always getting great promotional codes from them. But Charlotte is ROUGH on books. She has destroyed many books with "regular" pages so I was pretty adamant about having a board book.
I did a little research on companies that allow you to customize board books. I wanted something good quality but also not super expensive. I ended up going with a company called Pint Size Productions. I went with their "Simple Photo Book 2" design and uploaded each picture file and was able to customize text. They also have themed books if you want the option of less customization or if you were creating a book for a holiday.
The company was very responsive. I was unsure if my order process and they were very prompt in replying to me. They estimated 7-10days for shipping. I placed an order Monday night and had my book in hand by Friday... I was pleasantly surprised about how quickly I received my order!
The book is a great quality and the best part is Charlotte loves it just as much as I thought she would. Of course, her favorite pages are "dada" and "lola".
The cost of the book was $24.95. They have a promotional code listed on their Twitter account for the Fall which did save me a few dollars. I will defiantly be using them again in the future. This would make such a great gift idea as well! Here is a sample of how I set up the inside of the book.
The back allows for an dedication and a photo as well.
