Great customer service, very informative thorough the whole process. Love the end product. Would highly recommend.
Thank you for the kind words about both the process and the finished product! It means a lot that you'd recommend us, and we're glad our team could keep you informed every step of the way.
So nice to have quality coffee table books of kids artwork instead of bags of stuff we will never look at. Process was super easy and fast. Also ordered card boxes to reduce more clutter in home.
Coffee table books beat bags in the closet every time! We're honored to help reduce that clutter and preserve so many of your memories.
I have received my 4th Artkive book in the mail. The process is so simple from the initial ordering of a box to being able to rearrange your book how you’d like. The quality is always wonderful & email communication is great. I’ll continue to order these for as long as my kids are bringing home art projects.
Four books, wow! Thank you for trusting us year after year. We'll keep those books coming for as long as the art keeps coming home!
I have used Artkive twice now and have loved how easy the process is and how this company takes their time in perfecting your kiddos art work! I will continue to be a customer for years to come!
Twice now and already planning on years more, that means everything to us. We're glad the care we put into each book shows, and we'll be here whenever you're ready for the next one!
The best way to keep your child’s artwork without having bins and bins and bins taking up space forever
Yes, exactly! Trading bins of clutter for one beautiful book that actually gets looked at is the whole point. Thank you!
I cannot recommend Artkive enough! I have been using their service every single year since my kids were in preschool, and it has become one of my favorite annual traditions. Before Artkive, I was drowning in piles of school drawings, paintings, and projects, feeling guilty about wanting to clear the clutter but unable to throw them away. Artkive completely solved that problem. The process is incredibly simple: they send you a box, you fill it with your children's masterpieces, and they turn them into a stunning, high-quality hardcover book. The print quality is outstanding, the layout design is beautiful, and it completely preserves the magic of their early years without the physical clutter. Looking through these books every year and seeing how much their art has evolved from preschool doodles to bigger school projects is absolutely priceless. If you are on the fence about trying it, just do it. It is worth every single penny to keep those memories safe and beautifully organized!
An annual tradition since preschool is such a great way to watch your kids grow through their art, and that mix of relief and priceless keepsakes is exactly why we do this. Thank you for making Artkive part of your yearly rhythm for so long!
It’s just so easy. The box came, I sent the art back and when it was time to review the art book it was super simple to make edits and reorganize the pages. I also loved that you have the option to get the art back or have it recycled. It’s so nice to have my daughter’s artwork preserved forever in a quality book.
So great to hear the process was so smooth for you! Your daughter's book sounds like it's going to be treasured for years.
Outstanding. This is my second book, and I have 2 more in production. I would HIGHLY recommend this company. Their product is worth every penny I spent.
We're so happy to be part of preserving these memories with you, and even happier that you're already back for more! Thank you for the trust and the recommendation!
We're so glad you're loving your book!
I love the Artkive books for my children’s artwork. I collect it all school year long and send in the artwork at the end of the year. The books are high quality and make great gifts. We love looking through the books together throughout the year. Would absolutely recommend.
Collecting all year and sending it in at the end is such a smart rhythm. Love that the books become something you look through together. Thanks for the recommendation!
They make beautiful books preserving memories.
Thank you for saying so!
The process was extremely easy and the result was lovely and came quickly. I did miss the email about the authors page so that didn’t make it. 😔 It did seem a bit expensive but I was able to take advantage of a prepayment option that helped. And I feel better getting the clutter out if the house but retaining the memories.
Sorry the author's page email slipped by, but we're glad the prepayment option helped make it easier on your budget. Also that the clutter's out while the memories stay put!
It’s such a good idea! I have 6 books and I love to see my son’s arts on them.
6 books, wow! Thank you for sharing.
After creating a "life" book for foster kids, I found Artkive. What a great way to save photos, art and special items for both foster families and bio families. I love ARTKIVE. I make yearly books for my adopted kids. They love to look at their cards, art and photos. Highly recommend.
What a meaningful use of Artkive. We're so grateful to have helped your kids revisit their own cards and art each year. Thank you for the recommendation to foster and bio families! Looking forward to making your next book.
These books come out, absolutely stunning! I’m so happy to get rid of the bulk artwork with zero guilt! Putting this together could be costly, but certainly worth having all the artwork in one place! Something I could pass down from generations to generations. Thank you so much for doing what you do and creating this company!
Something built to pass down through generations is a pretty special outcome for a book. Thank you for the kind words and for trusting us with it.
Everything, The customer service, the art books, & the gallery video was all amazing!
We're so happy you had a great experience. Thank you for the kind words!
We have used Artkive three years in a row and love it EVERY time. Amazing quality and such a fun way to preserve memories.
Three years running and still hitting the mark, that's wonderful to hear. Thanks for making Artkive part of your yearly tradition!
I love my book! I am much more likely to look through the book to see my card than I am to pull a box down and go through the actual cards. The books saves me some storage space as well. It was very nicely put together!!
Trading a bulky box for a book you'll actually reach for is exactly the point. Glad it's saving you space too. Thank you for sharing!
We’ve been using Artkive for a few years now and I feel like they are just consistently great! From communication about your artwork to creating the book or mosaics and then the quality of the pictures and the books when you receive them are just wonderful!
Years of consistency is a big compliment. Thank you for sticking with us year after year, and for the kind words!
