...photobooks...

A friend of mine posted about photobooks a while back. I may have told ya'll about these before, but I'm a real fan! A friend of mine introduced me to them about a year ago by giving it to me as a gift to commemorate a trip we took together! What a fun way to preserve a memory! So, I looked into it and its really fun!

The website that my friend used, and that I prefer to use is mypublisher.com. The main reason I like this is they have the best prices. A small paperback book is only 12.95! AND if you click on the red button on the website, you can print 2 of the same book for the price of 1!!! So make a book, and then keep a copy for yourself! They also have larger, nicer hardbound books that range from $29.80 to $89.75, depending on number of pages in the book and the type of cover you choose. And yes, I believe you can still use the coupon and print 2 for the price of 1!

There are several other websites and companies that offer this service. I'm not sure what their prices are and what the differences are in the products, but here are some other options:

Inkubook

mpix

Kodak

Shutterfly

I know people that have used this as their primary wedding album! I'm planning on making one for my sister's wedding in Puerto Rico!!!

I will tell you it takes some time to put it together, get the pictures just right, etc. Of course, it depends on how much of a perfectionist you are, but plan to invest some time. Also, get your order in early, they say December is a busy time for them and you need to get it in soon if you want it to come in time for Christmas! Hope this helps for a Christmas gift idea!
