“Best baby shower gifts” — Good Housekeeping

"I have 3 children, and I have gotten a Lucy Darling Memory Book for each of them. I love the simplicity and the artwork on each page. It is easy and fast to fill out the pages, so even with a busy schedule, you can put together a sweet memory book for each child. Each page takes me 10 minutes or less"

Hannah R. Verified Customer

Description

The Little Artist Baby Memory Book is all about florals, every bloom drawn by hand by Lucy Darling founder Haily Meyers. The cream cover has a bright garland of pink and coral roses and green leaves around a hand-lettered "Baby's first year," with "a simple book of firsts" along the bottom.

Inside, the palette turns up: folk-style flowers on saturated hot pink, teal, mint, lavender and mustard, with floral borders throughout. These are vivid colors rather than soft pastels.

At a Glance

  • About 9" × 9" hardcover with a soft-touch laminate finish
  • 48 pages with spaces for 49 photos, from before birth through age five
  • Short prompts on 37 pages, plus 11 free pages for notes and extra photos
  • Archival-quality paper and wire-o binding, so the book lays flat while you write
  • Printed with soy-based, low-VOC inks
  • A lovely choice for a baby girl
  • Free Photo Lab: crops your photos to fit every frame and makes print-ready files
  • Includes a personal note from Haily Meyers, who draws every Lucy Darling book

Your Free Photo Lab

The hardest part of finishing a baby book is getting the photos printed to fit. The free Photo Lab at memories.lucydarling.com does that part for you. Pick your book and it shows every photo spot, page by page. Add photos straight from your phone, it crops each one to the right size, and you get print-ready files to print at home or at any photo shop. You can jot down details like birth weight and length as you go. It runs in your browser, with no app to download and no account needed.

What's Inside

Forty-eight pages carry you from before birth through age five, with spaces for 49 photos. Thirty-seven of them give you a short prompt to fill in, and the last 11 are left free for notes, extra photos and keepsakes.

  • Before You Were Born: the ultrasound photo, weeks, cravings, due date and who you told first, plus a letter to your baby written before you met
  • The day you arrived: time, date, weight, length, hair, eyes, who delivered you and where, with pages for the birth announcement, the hospital bracelet, and baby's footprints and hand tracings
  • Where you lived, and a snapshot of the world the year your baby was born
  • Months 1 through 12: one page per month, each with a photo and four short prompts (We'll never forget, You love, You can, You don't like)
  • Favorite things, a family tree drawn to match the book, firsts from first bath to first word, and twelve first holidays
  • Your first scribble, birthday pages for ages 1 through 5, and a First Day of School page

Who It's For

Little Artist is a lovely choice for a baby girl, and for families who love color. For monthly milestone photos, add the Blushing Meadow Milestone Pennants or felt milestone numbers.

Second baby & we still love this book!

We just had our second baby and I absolutely love these memory books we just had to get one for our newborn. I love the artwork, the intro pages, and the way you can document their “firsts” in the back. I’ve bought this book for friends as a baby shower gift too!

Easy and adorable

When taking care of an infant, moments to yourself are rare and short lived. This baby book allows me to document those important memories quickly! With a "standard" book, I probably would have given up or missed a lot because if how much detail to fill in. With my Lucy Darling, it hits the most important things in an adorable layout! I highly recommend this book to all busy parents!

Making Darling Moments Together

When graphic designer Haily Meyers was pregnant with her first child, Lucy, she began creating sticker sets to capture the joy and precious moments of pregnancy and motherhood. 

This inspired Haily and her husband Kevin to launch Lucy Darling in 2012 with just three sticker sets manifesting their love and excitement as new parents. Today, Lucy Darling has blossomed with over 100 uniquely designed pieces helping families make lasting memories together. 

“I absolutely love Lucy Darling! So excited to share their products with our Alum's when they have a new baby!”

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions? We’ve got you covered

For more recommendations, please refer to our blog.

What should I do with blank pages on the back?

Extra pictures, special cards from the baby shower, a place to write down Darling Moments!  These are just a few fun uses for those extra pages, but the possibilities are endless.

Do your memory books work for all families?

Yes! Our baby memory books take a “child-focused” approach. Most references to parents are worded as "we loved," or "we watched you grow," etc. We’ve also recently updated our books and removed the family tree labels, which gives you the freedom to label each space in a way that works for your specific family. The only reference to any one parent is on the “before you were born” page where there's a photo spot for mom's belly and a blank spot to write what mom was craving.
