The process of creating customized gifts is easy
When creating personalized gifts with Blurb, many options are available throughout the customization and creation process.

• Begin with your book project’s design and layout. You can use Blurb's free and easy-to-use bookmaking tool, BookWright. Or use Adobe InDesign or Lightroom plugins to design your book.
• You can design the pages of your book from scratch with a blank template or use customizable templates to help get you started.
• Customize the fine details of your gift by choosing from different book dimensions, cover formats, and paper types. For stunning photo book gifts, the luxurious paper quality of our Layflat ImageWrap format offers a professional look and feel.
• Whether you need one or several copies, you can print as many books as you need with Blurb's print-on-demand service. There's no minimum requirement; however, bulk discounts are available with larger orders.
• Once assembled, the process of printing and binding your book takes about 4-5 business days, then the order ships. Depending on the destination, the estimated delivery time for a book is 7-11 business days after order placement.

Please keep in mind that expedited printing and production are not available.
