Well, self-published that is. As a special One Year in the House Anniversary present to myself, I found a company that would turn your blog into a photo book. I used SharedBook (blog2print.com). It only took about a week to have my new coffee table book in my hands.
It looks great! I'm really impressed with the quality of the cover and pages. You can specify a date range of posts you want included and you can even go through and edit (removing posts, adding pictures, etc). Sadly, I apparently didn't utilize the edit and proofing features enough.
My House Becomes a House?!? What? At first I thought it was their mistake but then I realized it was mine. I had the blog title section in my settings reading this way by mistake. Sigh. If my house is no longer striving to be a home but rather merely a house, does this mean I'm done? :) Oh well. This will just be one of those things I look back and laugh at.
The inside pages read just like the blog. I think it will be fun to be able to flip through and see the changes I made in my first year at my first house.
I promise not to make all my visitors go through the book when they visit. But I may offer you extra cupcakes if you do.
Haha! We have a book titled "Our trip trip the Bahamas" instead of Our trip to the Bahamas, sigh. Totally gonna steal this idea and do it for Weston's 1 year ;-)
