Inscribe-It Books

I love giving books as gifts — my children’s friends’ birthday parties, baby gifts, my friends’ birthdays, Christmas — any occasion is acceptable.

One of the unique features that I love about Inscribe-It is that your inscription is printed on the first page. It’s the exact same book you’d buy in the store, but with a custom printed page bound at the beginning of the book. Not only can you include an inscription, but you can include a picture as well. What an extra-special touch!

When I was offered the chance to try out Inscribe-It‘s service, I knew exactly what book I’d select as a special keepsake for my children. Both of them fell in love with Marley — the world’s worst dog — this year.

So I picked out Bad Dog Marley, and I knew the perfect inscription to make it a keepsake.

The picture is our annual Father’s Day picture, which included my husband’s best-loved (or at least most loyal) “child” — our dog Shadow.

They offer books in many categories, and I can think of so many gift-giving possibilities. In addition to a birthday gift, what a great way to welcome a new baby, or commemorate this first day of school, or mark a graduation.

One winner (U.S. only) will win their choice of book (up to $30). Visit their site, then tell us which you’d book you’d select, and how you’d inscribe it.

Inscribe-It is also running a twitter contest all month, so after you enter here, just tweet @inscribe_it with the book you’d get and how you’d inscribe it. One person will win each week! Check out the details on their homepage.
