On Paper's Gift Guide: 12 Days of Holiday Giving, Day 11


On the eleventh day of Christmas, things were picture perfect

Earlier in this series we mentioned appreciating gifts that inspire us to live at a slower, more reflective pace. Though we love snapping pics on our phones and jazzing them up on Instagram (we're @onpaperohio) as much as the next person, we welcome the opportunity to sit down on the couch, tea steaming away on the table, and flip through a photo album.

A tome for your home--a beveled-edge leather photo album

If that album happens to be Italian made, hand bound and archival, all the better. For newly married couples, families expecting little ones, or globetrotting friends, a photo album that will preserve and display their memories is useful and thoughtful. We also carry a delightfully rustic and American made brand well-known in journal circles, and just as archival. We suggest purchasing photo corners, which we also carry, and giving the complete gift.

The wrap closure and hand-stitched binding is a different, but homey aesthetic

A framed photograph of you and the recipient from graduation, a birthday party, or asimple happy day together is another of our favorite gifts. Our frame selection focuses on leaded art glass in delicate textures and colors to enhance any picture and accommodate any décor. Our frames are best perused in the shop, come on by!

A Christmas present of Christmas past
