5 out of 5 starsThis is my third order of beautiful custom books from Renee and I am thrilled, again, with my new set! Each book has excellent quality with perfect alignment of print and design. I ordered the high gloss finish for my set of books in white and silver and it creates a look of sophistication to the titled books. The order was wrapped so securely and with care to stay in pristine condition during shipping. My order was received very quickly and the seller, Renee, is always such a pleasure to consult with in design and font. Her talent of artistry in this unique way adds beauty cleverly to any decor.

5 out of 5 starsThis is the second set of custom books I purchased from Renee @ The Artful Library. This time my daughter and I customized the books to compliment the decor in her new apartment…they are the perfect addition and exceeded her expectations! Renee took the extra time and care to send a preview for my daughter’s approval and they arrived quickly. Highly recommend Renee & The Artful Library!

Frequently asked questions
Product Details
Book sets include the specified number of books along with custom covers. The custom covers are made from heavy satin paper with a thin matte laminate applied for beauty and long-term durability (similar to dust jackets of professional book publishers). The book covers are attached firmly to the books. For my book sets, I use a variety of new modern-day hardcover books and select books randomly based on like sizes. Unless otherwise specified, your books will be selected randomly from the inventory I have on-hand.
Custom Projects
As specified in my listings, there are a number of color combinations standardly offered with many of my book sets. If you want a color combination or design that is different than what is listed, please contact me prior to placing your order. A minimal design fee usually applies for custom work.
Production Time
Standard orders typically take approximately 1-2 weeks for completion. Custom designs and other special orders (certain books, for example) will take longer depending when the books are received.
Shipping
The shipping rate built into the listing is USPS Media Mail, which is the most economical way to ship books. Depending on where you live, media mail can take anywhere from 8-14 business days for arrival. If you need your books sooner (i.e., anything shorter than 2 weeks from your date of order), please contact me prior to placing your order. I offer a variety of upgraded shipping options (USPS Priority Mail and UPS Ground) and am happy to tell you the additional cost of expedited shipping.
