Artkive was awesome!

Artkive was great! I loved how they consistently updated you on the process / status of the book I was purchasing as a gift, and I also loved how they showed names/pictures of the staff that were contributing to it! I would definitely order from there again, no doubt!!

I also love that they offer discounts on the purchase of a box/product pretty frequently!

Amazing!

First of all, I absolutely love the final product! So nice to see my kids artwork instead of it sitting in a tote. Artkive was very upfront with cost and communicated well! Highly recommended!

Great Experience

I loved this experience. Everything was so seamless and easy, including packing the box (I literally stuffed mine to the brim) and the photography was excellent. My only feedback would be that I wish we could re-rearrange the pictures in the book in the order we wanted.

I am on my 4th artkive book and all of them are now in my “things I need to take with me in an emergency” list. I turned a bunch of cards and letters from family and friends into beautiful books (and when I say I did I mean I put them in a box and artkive did the rest). I love this product so so so so much. Best gift to myself ever.

Thank you so much for this. We’re honored to have helped turn those cards and letters into books you treasure so deeply. One extra awesome thing about Artkive is that in case of an emergency, we actually have a backup of your books stored on our server and would be able to reprint them for you if you ever lost them. Your memories are safe forever!

Amazing services

Artkive offers amazing services to preserve memories while minimizing clutter. I used Artkive to compile cards from my wedding, and purchased a second one to keep the cards from engagement and bridal shower. The process is easy and at the end you have a keepsake from a special time.

Seamless process, treasured book

I had such a wonderful experience creating my second Artkive Book. The process was incredibly simple and well thought out. From receiving the box, to sending it back, to reviewing the digitized photographs online.

What I love most is the final product. The book is beautifully done and truly feels like a memory capsule of special school moments, art, and classwork. Seeing the work thoughtfully preserved and organized in one place is something really special.

The entire experience was seamless, and the finished book is something to be treasured.

Exceptional customer service & products!

Artkive has exceptional customer service and provides an excellent product. As someone who struggles to keep clutter at bay, being able to send all of my child's artwork to Artkive (where they professionally photograph everything and then print it in a book) helps us keep all the memories without all the random pieces of paper, cardboard, string and such scattered around the house. My child loves helping me review each proof online and add captions about the included art pieces. We have been creating books since my child was a toddler, and the now 10-year-old is still thrilled when a new book arrives in the mail!

Excellent company

Excellent company. Highly recommended. Save space and have all your cards put in one book. You can even add your own pages with photos to enhance the memories. The company is efficient and you can tell by the photos that they take time and make sure they are perfect.

De-clutter and cherish the memories!

We were moving and needed to de-clutter. This was a great way to get rid of the bins of kids art but still be able to look at it and cherish it! We are so happy! :)

Memories for years!

Fantastic, high-quality product that will last for decades! My children enjoy getting one of these every year with all their artwork from the past grade year. We have done this since they were in pre-school. Looking back on these books year after year bring back fond memories and is so special for my kids! The photography is EXCELLENT and the process is seamless and easy! Yes, it is a bit pricey, but you are getting a very high quality product.
