A Busy Mommy: Photo Works

A Busy Mommy

Feb 26, 2010

Photo Works

 

Do you know what haunts me every year?  Mother's Day.  How do I pick the perfect gift, year after year, for the woman who made me who I am.  The woman who continues to help me every day, lending an ear, an hour and yes, even money, without so much as a single complaint.  

With all the options out there, it is easy to get overwhelmed, confused about what is perfect, just for her.  I tend to look for the meaningful gifts.  The ones that she can keep with her forever, that steal a little place in her heart.    That is why I started looking for photo books. 

In todays' digital age, many of our pictures go unprinted, all kept in digital files, never to be printed out, hung on a wall, or placed in the old fashioned photo albums.  Photo books, being the new age version of these are a wonderful gift idea.  They can be easily built with a theme, and put together in a small amount of time.  A great place to get started is PhotoWorks & American Greetings. 

With their recent face lift, putting together a photo book for yourself, or your Mom has never been easier.  You can easily navigate your way around the site and find the perfect book just for you. Easily upload your existing photos and put your book together.  I love just how special you can make it.  With prices starting at just $12.95, it has never been more affordable either!

Buy It!

I would get several sets of the cool charcoal collage cards, put photos of my products on them, and use them as enclosure cards when I ship items I have sold.

We had a hard cover book made for us from the family reunion/60th wedding anniversary of my in-laws that we celebrated last summer.

It was such a wonderful gift that I would like to do soemthing like that for my Dad who celebrated his 70th birthday.
