Makes a GREAT grandparent gift...
I was very impressed with our finished product! The book was of my 3 kids artwork and it was the best way to preserve the memories! The quality was worth the price and I would not have been able to do it myself. Would recommend to parents who are considering! Makes a GREAT grandparent gift too.

My kids LOVE looking at their books too...
I love my art books from Artkive. I just received my fifth set of books of my kids' art and they are beautiful. My kids love looking at their books too and seeing how their art has changed over the years. It's a great way to keep their art lasting for years to come. Artkive has a wonderful team too. Their communication throughout the process is phenomenal. I always know where my art is and when I should expect to see proofs as well as the finished books. They also do a great job of nudging me to fill my box and get it back to them so they can get started on my art books. This is a wonderful way to save art.

I could not recommend this more...
This was the best found thing to store all of my pre schoolers art! If you are tired of hanging onto papers from any grade I could not recommend this more. The Artkive team does such an incredible job walking you through the process and the customer service was amazing any time I had a question. When our book came back, it was better than I could have even imagined it would be! I plan to do this for all of elementary school now too!

It's great quality and a good way to preserve art...
I love the final product. My child's art had googly eyes, sequins, and puff balls - the pictures maintain that quality of the art which I love. I wouldn't be able to take such good pictures myself. It's great quality and a good way to preserve art without having to store all of the pieces You do have the option to get the art returned though if you want it back.

The picture quality is so much better than anything I could have done...
I debated what to do with my daughter’s artwork from preschool, and after much consideration I decided to go with Artkive. I am so happy I did! The picture quality was much better than anything I could have done if I had tried to make something myself. I’m glad I get to keep some version of her artwork that doesn’t take up as much space as the original pieces. They were also very transparent about who was working on my daughter’s book and what stage of the creation process they were at.

Preserving these memories in such a beautiful way... is invaluable...
I recently used Artkive to create two books featuring my children's artwork, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, the process was smooth and easy. The team at Artkive was professional, responsive, and made sure every detail was handled with care. They did a fantastic job organizing and displaying the artwork in a way that feels personal and meaningful. While the price point is on the higher side, I truly believe it’s worth the investment.
Preserving these memories in such a beautiful way, without the clutter of keeping stacks of artwork around the house, is invaluable. Overall, Artkive offers a fantastic service for any parent looking to preserve their children's artwork in a meaningful, long-lasting way. I highly recommend them and look forward to using their services again in the future.
