Workshops Workbook Resources Custom Printing Testimonials About You About Us Home
I'm quite excited about this page because 'making things' has been my passion all my life.  There's something very satisfying about creating beautiful objects with your own hands.  Keep checking back often as it will take some time to add everything I want to so you can 'do it yourself' too. 

If you don't have time or desire to 'do it yourself' you can purchase the guestbook, anniversary books, or baby's first year by emailing a request.  They can be customized for an additional fee.

Email us your DIY projects and we’ll add them to our list for everyone to enjoy - Many Thanks!

Gift Card Box

This is a simple alternative to an open basket or expensive card box for receiving 'envelope only' gifts at a reception.  Purchase a Gift Box at a packaging store (there's a couple local ones listed under 'Local Links'.   Cut a slit with an xacto knife in the top or front.  Tie a ribbon around it to provide a bit of security and to make it fit with your decorating scheme.  Be sure to have someone assigned to secure the envelopes in a safe place once all the guests have arrived. 

Guest Book

A great alternative to the standard guestbook.  This handmade book has frames for photos of the couple to be displayed for guests to see during signing.  After the wedding slide them out and replace photos with wedding photos.  Email a request to purchase ($40-$50 depending on # of pages)  Designs vary, but will fit to colour scheme.

Our First Ten Years (Anniversary Book)
This book makes a great gift for any newlyweds.  Starting with a page for the wedding day and a page for every year married up to 10 years, this book provides a lovely way to summarize your anniversaries.  Email a request to purchase ($40 for finished book/$2.50 for DIY design) - Paper designs vary, but will fit to colour scheme.

Our Anniversary Album (50 years)
This 21 page book goes beyond the 'The First Ten Years' from wedding day up to 15, then 20, 25, 30, 40 and finally 50th anniversary.  It's a great gift for someone that has reached a few of these milestone anniversaries.  We take a photo of our family every anniversary and love to look back at the significant changes from year to year.  Email a request to purchase ($50 for finished book/$2.50 for DIY design) - Paper designs vary, but will fit to colour scheme.

Our Baby's First Year
OK, so this is a bit beyond the wedding, but still a great gift idea.  I modified the same format for the anniversary album to summarize each month of a baby's first year.  Those calendars always annoyed me because it's hard to remember the exact day that a baby starts doing something new.  Most new parents are so sleep deprived they shouldn't be required to be that specific.  Email a request to purchase ($40 for finished book/$2.50 for DIY design) - Paper designs vary, but will fit to colour scheme.
