My husband and I have a
little tradition where our only gifts for each other are meaningful, within a
budget we set and must fit in our stockings. I love opening my stocking each
year and some of my favourite memories as a kid was Santa placing my stocking
at the foot of my bed for me to find when I woke up. As for buying stocking
sized gifts for my husband… it’s a challenge. He’s very practical and doesn’t
really like chocolate (we are very different haha).
While
looking at the different creative projects on the London Drugs Photolab App
I noticed the Book-It Mini Books. The
price
easily fit within our set budget and they are small enough to fit in a
stocking. Kevin and I have created so many memories with our son this past year
that it was so easy to put together a little book of some of our favourites.
While I didn’t need the quick timeline, I was really impressed these book-it
mini books can be made in 24 hours!
The Book-It Mini Book I made is adorable. I chose the black hard
cover, pearl finish paper and a single image on each page. I also chose the centered square image option which I love because it reminds me of a little book
of Instagram photos. It’s going to make
a great stocking stuffer but if you’re looking for smaller gifts that are still
meaningful the Express Books and Book-It Mini
Books
are a great option. They are quick, easy
to make and budget friendly, so they are perfect for co-workers, your child’s
teachers or anyone you’ve traveled with.
I love
getting photos developed and putting them into photo albums (with each photo dated,
of course) but I could see myself using the Book-It
Mini Books as little keepsakes after notable events where
we take quite a few photos. Family trips, birthdays or even holidays. I have so
many photos from Thomas’ first Christmas that would be so sweet to compile in a
book-it. I know Kevin is going to love finding this little book of memories in
his stocking this year!
*I use the IOS version of the Photolab App but it has recently launched for Android as well!! The Android version doesn't have the Book-It Mini Books just yet so if you're interested in making one this holiday season, you can still do so easily from your computer.
