High quality art preservation

Artkive preserves work in a high quality beautiful way. I feel good that the items are recycled in a responsible manner and that I am able to make edits and adjustments to the final product before sending to print.

I love Artkive so much

I love Artkive so much! My house would be overrun with kid art without it and I get to save the great items by preserving them in a book that we look at over and over. Perfect solution for an anti-clutter mom who also wants to save the memories.

This was a fun journey with the kids going through the first few chapters of life.
It was a little expensive because we have so much art, though the quality is unmatched, and I love their virtual gallery! It's worth it to me because otherwise it wouldn't do anything with these pictures except leave them in a big tub. It got made to go through some Jem and a few are now on our wall.

Just amazing!

I had such a nice experience making a book of my kid’s art! They were so helpful, communicative, and professional. Things moved super quickly and before I knew it I had my book and all my items! My kids and I had a lot of fun naming their art as through they were official artists in a gallery. We’ve already looked at the book many times and I know we will be making more! I highly recommend!

The process is very simple

The process is very simple. You order a box, fill it with your cards when it arrives, and send it back. No need to worry about the order of the cards, as you can adjust that later. Once all your cards are photographed, you get an email notification to preview your book, and you can make any edits there; add titles, notes, or adjust photo positioning. Once approved, your book is created and sent back to you. The best part is that you can pay for the return of the cards or have them recycled. It creates a simple way to cherish your memories that is not only beautiful but space-saving.

Super good quality book

Super good quality book! I liked that I could order my box and take my time sending it back! They communicated everything that was happening with the artwork from the moment they got it up until the final product was shipped to me.

Keepsake for years to come

The process is easy and you are kept informed along the way of your photo book's status. The printed pages and book binding have always turned out beautifully. I like that you can name your book and the pages, rearrange pages, and choose your own cover image. This is so much easier than trying to choose and keep artwork every year. Less clutter and mess!
