Holiday Card Keepsake Book Best Practices
Preserving your treasured holiday paper requires a delicate touch. But following our tips for ordering and assembly will help you create a family archive that stands the test of time and brings joy for generations to come.
Personalize Your Bookplate
First things first, identify to whom the book belongs. We prefer featuring surname(s) à la “The Smith Family,” but you’re welcome to get creative here. List all family members by name, pen a special dedication, include a family motto, quote meaningful lines from literature or lyrics – you name it, we’ll print it!
P.S. A Personalized Holiday Card Keepsake Book makes a thoughtful gift for anyone on your list!
Compile Your Cards
While our designers expertly typeset your bookplate in a flourished script, go on a personal paper hunt for all the treasures you wish to include. Taking stock of your cards and laying them out chronologically in advance will help you recognize any holes you might have and plan accordingly.
*Please note, this CBP bestseller has a minimum 10-day lead time. However, the lead time may be longer if you purchase during a preorder period or at the height of holiday season.
Fill with Care & Look Back with Fondness
Once your keepsake book is in hand, it’s time to mount your personalized bookplate and fill the pages with precious paper memories! In addition to the sheets of blank “Year” stickers, you will receive an adhesive roller for a no-mess, no-stress attachment process – no sticky finger smudges or stubborn glue residue here.
Frequently Asked Questions
I accidentally skipped a page while filling my book. How do I fix it?
While we recommend using the utmost caution while filling your book, we know mistakes happen!
This book is handmade in the USA, so if you do skip a page, you can carefully untie the binding, remove the blank page, and retie. This will work for most but not all mistakes.
If you prefer not to try this method, use your adhesive roller to tape the blank spread shut.
Can I personalize the front of the book?
Unfortunately, the front of the book is not available to be personalized at this time.
Every book order includes personalization on the foil-stamped cardstock bookplate that comes attached to the first interior page.
Will you fill my book for me?
Our production team would be happy to fill your book on your behalf! Please reach out to shop@chereeberry.com for pricing information.
