Make your book on Blurb and SAVE

With the holidays approaching (I know I think it is too early to be doing this - and don't get me started with the holiday music in stores ...) I have a deal for you that can get you started (or in some cases finished).  This deal is great for those of us that like to do more than just "plunk down the credit card" when we give gifts. This way you can be "involved" in the whole process and give gifts that will be passed down or raved about for years to come!

How about getting inspired with Blurb's Gift Center?

There are a lot of gifts you could give this holiday season, but when it comes to something really meaningful, there’s nothing quite like the gift of a book you've made yourself. But before you start having visions of gluing and sewing together pages, check out the Blurb Gift Center.

Blurb lets you make seriously beautiful books using their free tools. Just add photos and text, choose your options (like paper and cover type), and then order. Of course, you do have to decide just what kind of book you want to make. But relax, because they have put together the cool Blurb Gift Center to give you lots of ideas.

For instance, if you've got a genealogical bent or you know someone who wants to keep the family history in one place, there’s the Blurb Family History Book.  I know this would have been great when my kids were in school and we had to do the "family tree" ..... no more frantic phone calls the day before it was due!
For those with newborns (or those that know someone with a newborn), a Blurb Baby Book might be just the thing.  Think about a great grandparents book that they will cherish for years to come (and drag out to share with the "intended" before the big day)
And if you’re the kind of person who keeps getting asked for copies of your recipes or if you have been collecting recipes "all over the place", think about making a Blurb Food Book so you don't end up "losing" a favorite or a "must try" before you even get to try it.

This holiday season, make your gift recipients feel really special by making them something special. There really is a book for everyone.
