Baby Photo Albums
Our children’s photo album is close to my heart. Speakable Gifts started as a gift basket business and the verses and hymns photo album was created to go in a gift basket for a new baby. It was our very first publication. Shortly after it was published, we stopped doing baskets, but the album was a hot selling item for quite some time. As much as I love it, I think it needs to be phased out. Since it is done entirely by hand, it takes more time than I have and interest in it has waned, except for a few ardent admirers who purchase it for baby showers. So when I run out of the covers and the albums themselves, which are hard to find anyway, we will stop offering it. This could take some time, depending on how orders go, but I doubt if I’ll purchase any more of the raw materials. A very dear friend makes the covers for me, but I think this will even be better for her, because of her husband’s illness. So all in all, its time is limited to “while supplies last.” The pages will still be available as laminated flash cards.
Of course, the companion cassette will still be available for a while. Interest in it has even revived a bit, with a couple of large wholesale orders. Some businesses have come up with good ideas for it.
Talk to you soon.
