I love when customers have special requests for their items that will make the finished product extra special :) As most of you already know, I love custom requests and when the request adds something to the item that will make it truly one-of-a-kind, it makes me giddy :)
I recently made 11 custom photo albums for a bride and groom to give their wedding party. They requested that I add Bridesmaid, Maid of Honor, Best Man and Groomsman to the outside of the albums along with the info that I normally add of the couple's names and wedding date.
But that wasn't the most special part about the books. The special part came when the bride asked if I could add her father's handwriting to the inside of her sisters' books. Their father had passed away a few years ago and she had a card that he had signed and wanted it added to the books.
I was happy to oblige and I love how the books turned out. These books just became ten times more special with the addition of their father's writing added to their books. It is the first thing they will see each time they open the books :)

Wow! Adding the original handwriting is really special!
I love the floral design on the front :)
Another great idea! Such a wonderful way to commemorate the bride's father.
Wow. I'll bet a job like that brings out a lot of emotion while you're working.
What a special gift!
The bride certainly had good ideas for personalization -- especially her dad's message. How lovely for her sisters.
You did a fabulous job on these!

These are soooo adorable and special. I have a lot of friends on pinterest with impending weddings so I'm going to find a good item to pin and I'll let you know. maybe fb it, but I don't have many followers on my aliferous express page just yet. :)
