But what about your story? Have you ever considered yourself a storybook maker? You probably have tons of stories to tell. Stories about amazing vacations you’ve taken, or stories about your time in school. How about the story of your family? Have you added any members to your family recently or not so recently? Whatever stories you have to tell, it’s easy to create a story book with the Motif photo book app. Every picture tells a story and most of us literally have thousands of them. Picture a way to easily place your best photos into a photo book layout and then pair the perfect words to complete the story. Sound interesting? Let’s take a closer look into making personalized story books.
You might be wondering if you have enough ink cartridges, the right kind of paper, glue, scissors, and other serious book-making tools. To create your own story book, all you need are photos, stories, a Mac, or iPhone, or iPad, and the Motif photo book app.
If you’d like to make your own story book with photos, here’s a few simple steps to make it happen:
If you have a child, the one item you have no shortage of are photos. So personalized story books with a child’s name on the cover and spine are easier to make than you might think. Imagine a child picking their very own custom story book from the bookshelf.
Remember that vacation to a theme park the kids absolutely loved? If you skipped the gift shop on your way out, you still have the opportunity to make a children’s book from the trip. Plus, it will be a fun activity to share with your child when you make your own children’s book with them.
Maybe their first year of school was something they really enjoyed. Making a children’s book about it would really be special. Ask your kids what stories they’d like to tell. They might surprise you with their answers.
The important thing to understand if you want to make your own story book is it’s not just for a select few. Anyone with a Mac, iPhone, or iPad can be a storybook maker and can do it just about anywhere. You don’t need a special printer, glues, scissors or design skills to do it. The free photo book app Motif makes it all possible. Instead of empty printer cartridges and assembling it yourself, have skilled press operators print and assemble it for you.
Your story book begins with Motif. The app works seamlessly with your Apple Photos so there’s no photo uploading necessary. There’s a variety of sizes and finishes to choose from. On your Mac, open Photos and select the images you’d like to create your photo project with. In the File menu select Create then Photo Book then Motif. On your iPhone/iPad, open the Motif app and then simply select the photo book product. Your favorite photos could be on their way to becoming a printed story book before you know it.
