For the Husbandfriend's first Father's Day, I wanted to do something with pictures of him with LBO and just pictures of LBO in general. We have about 9084507 pictures of the kid!
I found a site called Chatbooks after seeing someone I follow on Instagram rave about them. After checking them out I decided making a photo book through their site would make for a great present. I'm an Instagram junkie, I love the filters and there is just something about square pictures: they look better! Also, the sheer volume of pictures I have taken makes it more difficult to create a scrapbook in a short amount of time. Basically, let Chatbooks do all the hard work for you!
Now, I don't have a picture of the finished product - we will be in the States for Father's Day so I had it sent to my parent's address. I'll be doing a post on the book once I have it hand (fingers crossed it's brilliant!) so keep your eyes peeled for my review of the actual book.
Read on to find out more about their service.
They offer a few different services: you can print your Instagram photos in one off books or if you'd like, you can sign up for a subscription and they will print a new book every 60 new pictures you upload. It's a brilliant and easy service. I went for creating a one off book: I'd rather not bankrupt myself!
So far, I am really very pleased with the site. It's simple to use. You link your Instagram account and select which photos you'd like included in the book. That's it. Sorted. Done. Fin.
You can then customize the book: I chose to keep the date I uploaded the photo to Instagram and for the most part, I kept the original captions that were uploaded as well. However, you do have the option of editing these.
If you order a book with more than 60 pages, you will also be able to pick a title to appear on the spine of the book.
I am so excited to see the book and I'm even more excited to the Husbandfriend to see it as well. I look forward to adding to our collection and creating a nice little library of some of my best snaps. This will be made easier as well as after ordering this book, Chatbooks announced they've now made it possible for their books to be shipped outside of the US.
