I was giving a tour of the Columbia lab this afternoon and ran into two
Flush Mount album orders in process. Both happened to have the
Etched Aluminum cover. It's simply cool! I'm also a big fan of the
Brushed Copper cover. I realize it's not the cheapest item in the world to try on a whim, but they are cool.
Similarly, an order came through the lab a few days ago that caught our attention. At first glance, it appeared to be a case of duplicate orders. Each were 8x8
LayFlat Books with identical cover choices (Baby Blue leather with Silver Foil Stamping, including identical wording). Upon inspection, though, the books were each slightly different for the different family members -- one for dad, one for Grandpa #1, and one for Grandpa#2. At least that's what we guessed. Without many changes, they were able to use basically the same layout and order three different fantastic finished products.
We knew the idea of 'companions' had merit, especially for parent wedding albums. It was great to see someone using a slightly different twist, which was presumably made easier by ordering with our Remote Studio software.
The hardest thing at the moment when ordering an Album or Book is figuring out which of the many, many options we now offer I want to try. (And I hope you're having similar problems, but are ordering one of each to sort it out!).
