Shutterfly's Gifts

Shutterfly is a website where you can upload/store digital pictures.  You can have pictures printed in various sizes or printed on gifts.  I have used Shutterfly many times for getting pictures printed and was happy with the service.  I decided to check out the gift section since I had a couple of Grandmas that I would like to have a calendar made for (previous years, I had done this on my own computer).

What I liked about Shutterfly's Calendars was that there were a variety of layouts to choose from from month-to-month.  You can have one large picture up to a collage of pictures. I liked having the option and used a few different layouts.  It was very easy to manage the pictures and layouts and since I already had the pictures I wanted to use uploaded to Shutterfly's website, I was a step ahead!  The best feature about Shutterfly's calendars are that you can personalize them!  You can add captions and have birth-dates, anniversaries and special events printed in the calendar ( I love that feature!).  My calendar's were shipped quickly via UPS in a secure box.

What I didn't like about Shutterfly's Calendar printing  is the wire binding that holds the calendar together.  It's flimsy and cheap. For $19.99 + shipping per calendar, I expected better quality.  The pages fall out easily and find myself having to find a "cure" for the problem. 

When it's all said and done, using Shutterfly to have my calendar's made was alot easier and faster than if I had done it on my own computer.  I'm happy with the quality of the pictures on the calendar.  In my opinion, the good definitely outweigh the bad.
