Can you believe it’s almost Christmas? This is my favourite time
of the year. I love baking and decorating my house festively but I have the
most fun buying or making gifts for those I love most. Finding that perfect
gift can be difficult which is why I decided to make my husband a photo book
filled with the memories we made this year! A photo book allows you to tell your unique
story through photos. Photobox Canada offers unique, personalized photo gifts including canvas prints,
phone cases, calendars and beautiful photo books.
Getting started was so easy! I simply went to the Photobox Canada
website (https://www.photobox.ca) and created an account using my email address.
Just for signing up they will give you 40 free 4 X 6 prints! And uploading your
photos to their site couldn't be easier. There are 2 ways to do it, either
directly from your computer or you can take them right from your social media
sites like Instagram and Facebook. After you have uploaded your photos, select
the product you wish to order and follow the simple instructions. As you add your photos, Photobox Canada will
let you know what the quality of that photo is through a happy face rating
system. Your photos will either be rated excellent, average or poor. Most of my
photos in my book were taken with my iPhone and uploaded from social media. Out
of the 50 or so photos in my book only 4 received an average rating and you
can’t tell when looking at the photo book. So if you're like me and only take photos with your phone rest assured your book will be as gorgeous as mine!
I chose to create a 30 page square hard cover photo book. When I was
making my photo book, I was given the choice of layout for each individual page
allowing me to customize how many photos per page, background colour and you
can add text you to each page or individual photo. I didn't add any text to my book choosing instead let it be a beautiful pictorial of our kids. You can pick and design
the cover of your book. There were so many choices I really had a hard time
picking but finally settled on a pale shade of blue.
After I completed my book which took me about 2 evening to
complete or roughly 4 hours (I am a perfectionist!) I placed my order. I received
my photo book approximately 7 days later packaged very carefully to prevent
damage. I am thrilled with how it turned out! My book is a beautifully bound hard cover book that my husband will treasure for years to come! Each page is printed on beautiful
high quality glossy photo paper. I am so excited to share this beautiful photo
book with my husband on Christmas day and I can’t wait to make more amazing
photo memories on Photobox Canada!
