What Parents Are Saying
Love this company so much! All the books has been so enjoyable to see the kids artwork
I had been trying to declutter my home, but this is hard as a sentimental person. of course I have kept all cards I’ve ever received over the course of my life, so I had accumulated quite a bit of cards. I couldn’t bear to throw them away, but I needed to do something with them! Then I saw an add for Artkive. I was thrilled to say the least! I just got my third book from them with photos of my cards, and I’m so glad I saw their add. They have helped me preserve precious memories and words from others in addition to freeing up space in my house! Can’t wait to order more. 🫶
Great company that makes a great product. I did a book for cards from my wedding and my first baby. It’s the best way to keep cards without the clutter they make. The quality of the books is top notch. I’d definitely recommend them and I will be ordering more from them.
This is an easy, fun and space saving way to save all of your children’s art! Great idea with great service!
This was my first experience with Artkive. I needed some extra support and received it through a scheduled phone call. This was very appreciated and helpful. I highly recommend Artkive.
Ease of sorting and sending in artwork, ease of choosing what type of product, great photography that brought the pictures to life and simple editing process
Great experience! We created a book of 100 art pieces for my son and daughter and it turned out even better than we could have imagined. It’s so special and we plan to do this again as we continue to collect their artwork over the year. Thank you!
Artkive made the experience so easy for me. I would highly recommend them if you are looking to decluttering your kids art work and get them into a coffee book where you can enjoy them for years to come!
Artkive was so easy to use. I put my saved greeting cards in order and sent the box in. The cards were beautifully photographed and I was presented with a proof book. With the proof book you can rearrange the cards if you wish. I will definitely use them again.
IT was great

Photokive helped us keep our sanity as we worked through our deceased parents' estate. We uncovered so many pictures in boxes and albums - Photokive made it easy and affordable to send these in and have everything digitized.
High quality, quick turnaround, so easy to order! Thrilled with the book. :)
This company has been the biggest game changer for my household!!!! Every parent should create these books or works of art to make sure we keep our babies treasures forever! I already have two books that contains my son’s projects, art, creations , etc… from when he was 2 years old til now and he’s 7! Thank you Artkive!
This is my 3rd book with Artkive and I am always so happy with the process, company communication and the final product!! I literally tell all of my friends to use them!
Wonderful end product! Such a special keepsake.
This is my 3rd book that Artkive has made for my family. These books are beautifully put together to display my kiddos art. They love looking at their pieces in the books. The staff at Artkive were always helpful with any questions or concerns in a timely fashion. I definitely recommend this company to save your children’s art work. This way their art isn’t not just put away in a box in the basement, it’s a book you can bring out to look through and remember and show friends and family.
Amazing experience with a book we will cherish for a long time!
The product was intriguing and unique! The process was simple and easy. Very happy with the end result…a keepsake coffee table book!!!!
My third book with Artkive! Love being able to turn my little ones artwork into a perfect book to cherish forever! So easy to do!
Customer service is amazing, it was very easy to place an order to get a box, detailed instructions on how to mail it back. Great communication through email. The book itself great quality.
The books look great and the process is so easy!
We use artkive once a year and it’s become such a special tradition for our family. The kids love seeing their artwork turned into a book and it makes them to proud to flip through the pages. It is really fun to see how their creativity grows each year!
My mother-in-law was a teacher in a small one room rural schoolhouse and she saved all of her Valentines. They are now preserved forever in a book. The Valentines will now go to a historical society. Thank you!
I love this book! It looks beautiful in our home and ensured our wedding cards did not stay hidden in a drawer!

The communication was excellent from start to end of product! I like the fact that I could edit the rough draft if needed. I am thrilled with my book!
I love having the cards in a book that I can easily flip through. Great presentation. Arrived as expected.
My card and art books are very high quality, the colors are vibrant, the pages are sturdy, and the photography of my art/cards is very well done. I am so happy they recycle these things for me as I would struggle to stand over the recycle bin and dump these precious items in myself. I also love that I can add pictures into my card book of the people that send my cards, it will make for perfect historical documentation for my kids some day. Thank you, Artkive!
A great way to capture kids progress through time!
FAQs
How does Artkive work?
Fill your Artkive Box with your kids’ artwork, then send it back with the prepaid label. Every piece is professionally photographed and arranged into a keepsake book made for the coffee table. “Throw everything in a box and get a beautiful book in return.” — Amanda D.
Is my child’s artwork safe with you?
Yes. Your child’s art is handled by hand, one piece at a time, from the moment your box arrives. “I was nervous to send in my son’s beloved artwork, but I was confident it would be in good hands.” — Caitlin M.
How long does it take to get my Artkive book?
A few weeks from the day your art reaches us. Every piece is photographed and edited by a real person, so nothing about your book is automated. “I was so impressed with the time and care they took in creating a beautiful result.” — Ashley B.
