Announcement
Thank you for a fantastic 2022! I look forward to making books for all of my wonderful customers in 2023. I wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Charmbooks offers personalized memory books and journals for babies, kids, parents, newlyweds and more.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
I've been making handmade books for 15+ years! My custom-designed books are filled with journal prompts and photo pages to capture all the memories you hold dear.
With lots of cover charms, patterns and colors to choose from, I can customize a keepsake book that you'll always cherish. If you see a cover you love, but need a different set of pages (i.e. love a pregnancy journal cover, but want baby book pages), just send me a message and I'll make it happen for you. Don't hesitate to let me know what I can do to make your memory book perfect.
If your book is a gift and you'd like it shipped directly to the recipient, just let me know. I'll be happy to include a gift card.

5 out of 5 starsThis book is so cute! I haven't gotten too far into it yet but I am excited to use it in documenting my pregnancy. It is a nice hard cover and I like the spiral binding so I can lay it out flat. I'd definitely recommend this book for anyone expecting or for a gift.

5 out of 5 stars5 star!! The theme of this book was exactly what I was looking for. I ordered the journal just before the holiday. I inquired about shipping I was given the first week of January time frame. Understandable and realistic. Much to my wonderful surprise, it arrive Christmas Eve and I was able to give this precious gift to my daughter. Magical!! I reached back out to my daughter for her opinion of the book- I mean she is the pregnant one who is logging everything. Here is her reply… “I love it! I love the different prompts so I have different things to write about and I love the art. No complaints at all! Excellent quality! It’s perfect!” Thank you for creating the first journal for the many she will use in her life moving forward.

I am so thrilled to write down all of my baby girl’s firsts in this book! Not to mention the lovely note she left in the package as well! Will definitely purchase from her shop again 💕

5 out of 5 starsBe still my heart. I bought this for my sister. And it is STUNNING. It’s so sweet and the design is so glorious. The book itself is very simple so the babies will be the focus but such a pretty design it fits anyone’s style. I can’t speak highly enough of this. It arrived with beautiful packaging

Designing and creating charms is one of my favorite things to do.
I'd love to help you celebrate life's precious moments...
I have always loved paper. And books. And boxes. And anything else that I could combine paper with to make a new something. I started exploring making books and boxes in design school. A few years later, I became interested in beads and began to design and create unique “charms.” I applied these beaded charms to handmade cards, frames and scrapbooks. After an overwhelming response from friends and family, I started to sell my creations in stores across the U.S.
Once I became pregnant with my first child, I began to search for the perfect baby book. Frustrated when I couldn’t find exactly what I was looking for, I designed my own. My blank scrapbooks evolved into baby memory books with printed pages filled with journaling prompts and sprinkled with sweet drawings so I could keep track of my little one’s first year. The variety of books and charms I was creating began to grow, and eventually I had a whole line of books to offer.
Making memory books for others brings me great joy and satisfaction. I’ve been at it for more than 15 years and I still love it! I enjoy creating books with new paper and pattern combinations, new charm designs and new page ideas. I love it when I can help a customer create something they couldn’t find anywhere else. Please let me know if I can help you make the perfect book! :)

Frequently asked questions
Can I choose a different cover for my book?
Most likely. Please message me to see if I can make your book with the cover you want. :)
How do I personalize my book?
Personalization is printed on the white banner on the cover. When ordering, please include your personalization information in the comments box. Please note character limitations. If your text is longer than allowed, message me and I’ll see if I can fit it in by reducing the type size. If you need suggestions on what to print, send me a message and I'll send you some examples.
How do I add extra pages to my book?
Extra page options are available within each listing. If you don't see the extra set that you're interested in, contact me to see if I can accommodate your request. Please note that my books are wire bound, so pages must be added when I create your book...so now is the time to order them. :)
Please contact me to add additional years to anniversary journals or school memory books so we can discuss your options.
Will I receive a proof?
I will send a proof of your custom message, usually within 24 hours. If you have not received a proof, please check your Etsy account, your spam folder or contact me. If I haven't heard from you regarding approval of your proof after 24 hours, I will proceed with your order and ship it. Please check Etsy convos and/or the email associated with your Etsy account so there is no delay in getting your book to you.
Do you accept custom orders?
Yes! If you are trying to match a nursery, shower theme, color scheme, or if you need some page modifications/additions, please contact me to see if I can help make your vision a reality.
When can I expect to receive my book?
Please see listing details for turnaround/shipping delivery estimates. Custom orders may take longer. If you need your book by a certain date, please contact me to see if I am able to accommodate you. I'm always happy to work with customers who have tight deadlines.
You will receive a notification once your items are shipped, so please be sure to check your Etsy account to receive this information. All U.S. orders ship USPS Priority Mail, USPS Parcel Select or UPS Ground with tracking. All international orders ship USPS First Class International or Asendia USA, also tracked. If you prefer a different shipping method, please contact me so I can get shipping costs for you.
What if my book arrives damaged?
Although I take great care in wrapping and protecting your book, occasionally a book is damaged in shipment. If this happens, it is extremely important that you notify me immediately and that you keep the shipping box. You will need to send me photos of the damage to both the box and the book. Without such evidence, I cannot file an insurance claim. You must keep both the box and the book until the claim has been closed.
