PicPads began in my spare bedroom

One day in 2004, I was desperate to find a birthday gift for my mother. Sitting at my computer and feeling creative, I designed two unique notepads using photos of my kids, in a graphic design program. I gave them to my mother and she raved! I made samples for family and friends of their kids, cats and dogs and they raved too! Three months later PicPads was officially launched. (You can see my original two PicPads for mom, to the right.)

16 years later we are still going strong with a huge following of faithful customers. My mission remains the same as it did in 2004: to provide you with the highest quality, most unique custom photo notepads on the market. We remain the perfect gift for hard to shop for grandmas and girlfriends. And uncles, dads, bosses, and teachers too!
