for almost a year now i have been researching ways to get my blog printed.
a huge reason that continue to blog is to document the lives of my kids…
not just on the special days but on the day to day.
to me, it will be so cool for my kids to get to read these
entries when THEY are 30.
i am not a scrapbooker, nor a diligent journaler…this blog has
been the best way for me to document all the things i want to remember.
many of the ways that i had found were either unnecessarily
difficult, too expensive or did not work with blogger.
i can’t tell you the number of hours that i spent
researching and trying to find the best way to do it…
in a way that would be nice, durable and affordable.
and then i was sent to Blurb.
from step one it was easy…worked with my MAC and blogger.
included color photos and looked like a REAL book.
the pages are glossy and thick.
you can even add a photo to the cover.
this is my first volume. it is 275 pages and cost me approx $60.
at first that number may seem high, but believe me that is a great deal.
other places, this exact book could run me more the $200 and up.
and if you think about it…this is like our scrapbook…
and imagine the cost for all the supplies i would spend on that?
because my blog is so wordy and has so many photos,
i plan on doing a new volume every six month/two per year.
so if you are looking to print your blog,
i did the research for you and
Blurb may be the best bet for you.
