HeartBound creates archival books of children’s art. We’ll take your child’s art and digitally reproduce it in an elegant hardbound book that will last a lifetime. We do all the work, so you don’t have to spend hours on the computer uploading images and arranging pages.

We use archival inks and acid-free materials.

HeartBound artbooks can be used for:

  • End-of-the-year teacher gifts.
  • Graduation books.
  • Do-it-yourself story books.
  • Gifts for grandparents.

Why order an artbook?

  • Inspire the artist within your child with a book devoted to his or her art.
  • Each page layout is tailored to your child’s work. We can showcase everything from ceramics to poster art.
  • Get rid of the clutter. Keep only your favorite art pieces.
  • Most children’s art deteriorates over time. Our books are made with acid-free, archival materials.
  • Better than scrapbooking -- we create coffee-table books with style and sophistication.
  • Give artbooks to family members, friends or teachers.
  • No need to spend hours on the computer scanning and editing art.
