Artkive Reviews 311

I had struggled with what to do with all the art a kid begins to generate from camps and school even in a year. I had a drawer that was getting full, so had begun to cull the pieces i didnt want to keep, when my son caught a piece of his art in the trash. He was so hurt! We ordered the box, it arrives in the mail with all the return postage and instructions. We took our time and currated a box filled with his and my favs from Kindergarten. I let it sit and sit and artkive sent an email reminding me they will pick up from my house! it was simple. Once they received they emailed regularly to let me know where they were in the process. I was able to review the photos and choose order and captions in the art book. It is now on a shelf everyone in the family can enjoy and the big pieces that could be damaged and all the piles are gone. We look forward to doign the same for 1st grade!

I think this is a great option for memorializing all the wonderful artwork that your child brings home rather than having it sit in piles in closets/drawers. The art is photographed really nicely. The cost is definitely pricey (though I at least benefitted from an email offering free UPS pickup). I would recommend going through your artwork first and counting your pieces. I 'guesstimated' and probably could have gone down one size in terms of pages. But, I'm very happy with the final product full of cherished memories.

Such a cool company! Super easy to work with! And love how my book came out! I will definitely be ordering more in the future and gifting to others!

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.

Artkive has honestly been a game changer. We loved the processes and doing it together - my kids had so much fun picking which art to send in, and our daughter felt so proud of the book she created when it arrived back.

This was a great way to save art work from my young adult’s grade life that I had collected on a bin. He will be able to hold onto to one book instead of 50 various size art pieces. I highly recommend

GREAT experience. The staff was great to work with, the process was easier than I expected and it was fast and BEAUTIFUL! I would highly recommend.

I love Artkive. It's a great way to save all my daughter's art work in an easy to manage format.

The books look great and the process is so easy!

Love my Mothers Day book. Found all the things my kids (now 18 & 21) made over the years in a craft bin. Sent in, received great book, freed up the craft bin!

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 not only appreciated the final product but the whole process. This company is really responsive and let you know each part of the process. Although it takes a couple of weeks to be completed, you will know what has been done so far and have a good idea about when you will be receiving your book.

We used Artkive to turn our kids’ artwork into books, and it completely solved the “what do we do with all this paper?” problem.

The process was incredibly easy, everything worked smoothly, and the final books are amazing quality. The colors are so spot-on it genuinely looks like you’re holding the original artwork.

It’s a little expensive, but absolutely worth it. My kids love looking through their books, and I can already tell these will be keepsakes they hold onto for years.

If you’re drowning in kids’ artwork but don’t want to throw it away, this is 100% worth it.

I love this book! It looks beautiful in our home and ensured our wedding cards did not stay hidden in a drawer!

From the time I purchased the box in 2022, to when I received my book in 2026 - Artkive has been absolutely wonderful! I love their check in emails, and the fact that purchases do not expire. The whole experience was positive and now I have a beautiful keepsake with memories I never want to forget.

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 our first book! Already ordered another box !!! I’m cleaning out all of our closets, apparently our son was an amazing artist in elementary school
Easy process! Awesome product
Well done! Im thrilled!

Every step of the way Cards by ArtKive experience was fantastic. I appreciated how they kept me apprised of their progress, how intuitive the editing process was, and most of all how beautifully presented my books ended up. I’ve already purchased another box as a present for a friend. Amazing product and service!

Having a clutter-free home is really important to our family. ARTKIVE helps us fulfill our clutter-free goal by turning our littles art work into beautiful keepsakes that take up little space and last a lifetime. We look forward to sending in our boxes after every school year! Thank you ARTKIVE team!
