Henry's Words

2009-09-henry1.jpg

Liz wrote in to share the gorgeous photo book she made for her son Henry. She took photos of some of his favorite places, people and objects, assembled them beautifully and had them printed as a book. Not only is this a fun gift for her son now, but it's almost like a time capsule that he and she can appreciate for years to come.

She used a printing service through Kodak which she wasn't thrilled with, but you could try Blurb, Lulu, Shutterfly or any number of others. Check out her project and see a few more photos on Liz's blog, Say Yes To Hoboken (we think we will!).

Thank you Enamorada - I'm glad I wasn't the only person who had that thought, too.

Great idea! I've made a number of photo books with Kodak and been happy with them. I think I used the mini-photo book. The grand parents have really enjoyed getting them.
I want to use Blurb though too.

I love this idea. I may have to do an alphabet one for my daughter.

As for the lack of apostrophe. it doesn't bother me. As far as I have seen block sets don't even come with an apostrophe. I think if she would have used a random apostrophe it would bother me more.
