My 2010 blog books...
I figured out this year how to design my own page layouts and I'm so glad I did. (It's super easy. I just never took the time to try and do it before. I wish I had! I loved being able to design just what I wanted!)
I order through Blurb.com
Zero complaints about them. I am 100% happy with everything.
It does take awhile if you design your own pages. I think I average about 1 to 1.5 hours per month.
But we have already spent so much time looking through them and remembering. (It only stresses me out when Gretchen is trying to turn the pages.)
All my other books have been right around $100.
My summer one is 190 pages, 570 photos and cost $56.75.
The rest of the year was 356 pages, 1050 photos and cost $79.95.
Totally worth it, in my opinion.
I sooo need to do this!
ReplyDeleteWhat's your secret to designing your own pages? Did you figure out a short cut?
ReplyDeleteSO very cool!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis makes me teary eyed! So beautiful. I really HAVE to do this. It might take 5 or 6 books for me... I've been blogging since 2006!
ReplyDeleteI am jealous every time I see these. I've got to get on the ball. Just maybe while I am on maternity leave I could get 1 year done! Love them
ReplyDeletejealous!!! i really need to do another one but sadly its not something i look forward to...yours look super cute!
ReplyDeletelove. I have got to get on this!!!
ReplyDeleteSooo awesome! I use Snap.fish for all of my photo books since I don't blog and it's so much fun putting those together. I'm a year behind but hope to catch up this summer! On the TO DO list for sure!

Your books are so much cooler than the old falling apart photo albums we have of our kids growing up. Wonder if I would have ever been talented enough to compile a real book out of them.
ReplyDeleteGreat work, Amy!
You're such an inspiration! I love your books. I could sit for hours and hours reading them. Thanks for sharing :)
