Wonderful, quality product

What a wonderful, quality product! I purchased this to combine cards from when my husband & I were dating through our engagement & wedding. The photos truly capture every detail of each card & the color of the printing is perfect! I highly recommend purchasing this for any projects (helps to downsize as well!). Would make a great gift idea too!

I think that this is a fantastic idea

I think that this is a fantastic idea; my husband introduced me to it and I’m glad that he did. I do think that the price is a bit too high because let’s be honest, our kids create a lot of art. I felt as though the communication was spot on, although delivery time was slow and I think there are some hiccups with arranging pick up on the site. My only complaint about the books that I received was that some of the writing was hard to read, meaning too light. The consumer has the opportunity to do any edits they’d like and request changes but I didn’t feel the need to do so because everything looked so good. However, when I received the final books I absolutely loved them, but like I said quite a few pages were hard to read.

Saving art for 10 years

I was blown away by this book!

I was gifted an Artkive book at my bridal shower. It sounded like a neat idea so I provided all of the cards I had received for my engagement, wedding shower and wedding. I really had no idea what to expect and when I got the book, I was blown away! It is so beautiful! I am a writer, so when some gives me a card and writes something nice in it, I keep it. I have a lot of cards and they take up space. I am seriously considering having more books made and discarding my cards. (I will keep a few, such as a couple from my husband and my parents because I want their handwriting.) I highly recommend this product!

Don’t put their art work in a box….. Put it in a book !

This is my 3rd book that Artkive has made for my family. These books are beautifully put together to display my kiddos art. They love looking at their pieces in the books. The staff at Artkive were always helpful with any questions or concerns in a timely fashion. I definitely recommend this company to save your children’s art work. This way their art isn’t not just put away in a box in the basement, it’s a book you can bring out to look through and remember and show friends and family.

Three books and counting! Thank you for continuing to trust us with your family's artwork. We love knowing your kids enjoy flipping through their own creations, and you're so right that a book on the coffee table beats a box in the basement any day. We appreciate the kind words about our team, too!
