Create Something One Of A Kind with Blurb

People love getting really creative, one-of-a-kind books for Christmas. Books that elicit a “where did you find this?” response. As the leading indie- and self-publishing platform, Blurb has an entire online bookstore full of unique books by an incredible array of undiscovered, self-published authors, artists, and photographers. And while these books probably aren’t in your recipient’s bookshelf, many of them should be. So, if you’re thinking of giving unique gifts this year, consider these titles. Each costs around $40 USD or less:
Cookie Cravings by Maria Lichty and Heidi Larsen
We all have cookie cravings. Popular food blogger Maria Lichter decided to put them into something deliciously original: A baking book featuring 30 recipes you won’t find anywhere else.
Cookies
Dog by My Side by Adam Schnitzer
This charming collection of original, vintage photos shows us that as long as there have been cameras, we’ve wanted to photograph our canine best friends. As a special bonus, there’s a glossary of the early photographic methods used in the original images.

Around the World with a Toy Camera by Giorgio Giussani
Perfect for the photography or graffiti-art fan on your list. This book is an explosion of gritty color that explores the wonders of street art and analog photography.

Food Stories by Elena Scott
A short, wonderfully illustrated collection of recipes (and food stories) that will inspire you to pick up the knife and spatula—or just pen and paper.

Things I Love by Carol Nehls and Jessica Rose
Illustrated and written many years apart by a mother and daughter, this sweet rhyming story told by a fox is pure joy for all ages.

Patent Pending by Jordan Natyshen
Chicken goggles, air-conditioned rocking chairs, monkey jockeys for greyhounds… humankind has invented and sought to patent some amazing and crazy things. Illustrator Jordan Natyshen illustrates some of the strangest in this history of odd inventions.

Tiny Horses are Everywhere by Thea Lux
The perfect stocking-stuffer for fans of off-beat humor, this undeniably nutty book is based on a Tumblr blog and combines simple photo collages of small horses in human environments with incredibly funny captions.

Rouleaux by Anastassia Elias
What can you do with an empty roll of toilet paper? If you’re French artist Anastassia Elias, you create tiny dioramas inside of the discarded tubes. Inspired by art and movies, these pieces are beautifully crafted, fun, and unbelievably detailed.

Take a second and head over to Blurb to see if you can end your search for that perfect gift this season! Plus, save 30% on Blurb’s Print Books with code: SAVE30
 
 

Blurb's Chicken Soup for the Soul

November 14, 2013 by Emilee Evans

It can be really hard buying books for people as gifts. After all, you never know just which books they already have. And then when you do find the right book and give it to them, how do you make it really personal? Put in a book plate? Write an inscription? How do you make the whole thing totally them?
These personalized “Chicken Soup for the Soul” books are one really great way to do it. Not only do you get to choose from five different story themes (from “Christmas Stories” to “Giving thanks”), you can personalize it in ways you just can’t with a conventional book. As the title suggests, these are stories meant to comfort and heal.
Chicken Soup for the Soul
Your custom “Chicken Soup for the Soul” book will truly be a book for them because the book is printed with their name on the cover as the recipient. And it’s truly from you because your name is printed on the cover as the giver. You can even include an inscription inside the book and on the back cover! Plus you can add a photo to the back.
There are other nice options to choose from like the type of cover you’d like and the type of paper. It takes just about five minutes to make it a truly custom book. And chances are, it’s something they’ll love forever. And a 60-page book starts at just $24.95.

Chicken Soup for the Soul

There’s a quick video here: Chicken Soup for the Soul that shows you how to fill in all the information using a simple online tool. The books are all done by Blurb, so you know the quality is going to be great.

Blurb School Book Discount

April 12, 2013 by Emilee Evans

Remember all of those special moments over the past year? We had an awesome “first” this homeschool year with attending our first Homeschool Co-Op! We unfortunately missed almost as many days as we made it due to the dreaded cold and flu season not treating us well this year, but we enjoyed it SO much, and the kids LOVED it! This is also the first year we’ve been able to do projects together with the whole family! Maybe you had some fun homeschooling moments you caught on camera. Maybe your children attend a private or public school and you captured some great moments in pictures. First dance recital, soccer game, graduation? No matter the occasion, you can remember them forever by creating a Blurb School Book! The best part about Blurb School Books is they are simple to make and a great fundraising tool for your homeschool group, school or class!
Right now you can use the code MYSCHOOLBOOK to receive your 15% discount on Blurb School and Yearbooks until 5/31/2013. We homeschool year-round, so it isn’t quite the “end” of our school year, but I absolutely love this idea, and I’m excited to make a Blurb School book! Blurb has so many great projects and ideas, and I am particularly excited about this one! And a discount makes it even better! Don’t miss out on this special discount!
