Kids' Art Books · Ottawa
From the fridge door to a forever book.
We turn your child's artwork into a beautiful hardcover book: every piece photographed, labelled with their name and age, and bound to keep. Ottawa pickup, nothing mailed away.
Keepsake books from $149. Every price is on this page.
The pile is getting bigger. Your fridge isn't.
Every week the backpack comes home with another masterpiece. You can't keep them all, and you can't bring yourself to throw them out. So they pile up in a bin, a closet, under the bed.
We'll save every one of them, beautifully, in a single book you'll actually take off the shelf. Then you get to keep your favourite originals and let the rest go, guilt-free.

Questions parents ask
What kinds of art can you do?
Almost anything: drawings, paintings, collages, crafts, even small 3D pieces like clay. We photograph each piece rather than running it through a scanner, so size and texture aren't a problem.
Do I get my originals back?
Yes, always, unless you'd like us to recycle them for you. Many parents keep a handful of favourites and let us handle the rest. We'll only recycle with your written OK.
How long does it take?
We'll give you an expected date when we pick up your art. Need it by a certain day, like a birthday or Christmas? Tell us when you book.
Can I choose which pieces go in?
Yes. Send us everything and we'll suggest a selection, or mark your must-haves. You'll approve a proof before anything is printed.
What if I have more than 60 pieces?
Add extra pieces at $3 each, or split them into books by year. Many families do one book per school year.
Can grandparents get a copy?
Yes, extra copies of the same book are $49 each.
Do you pick up?
Yes, anywhere in Ottawa. You can also drop off at one of our locations; we'll send you the address when you book.
Ready to clear the pile?
