365 Project-Album
So all of you that are doing Project 365-how are you dividing your books up to print since you can't print the whole book into one book at Shutterfly? I was thinking of dividing mine into quarters, but that would mean I should have my first book done and sent to the printers and it reminds me how behind I am!! Most of my pages are double page spreads for the week with an occasional single page spread.

since I do all single pages, I should be okay with one book at the end of the year. Good idea to do quarters though

How many pages can a shutterfly book hold anyway? I have forgotten why I thought I needed to break mine up!

Shutterfly will bind 100 pages. The problem with breaking mine into 1/4s is you are paying such a high setup fee. The base price for an 8X8 is what, $29.99 + $1.00 each add'l page? If you print 26 or 27 pages, that's $38 (give or take) for the book, plus shipping. $38 X 4 = $160 (give or take).
Two 52-page books would be $29.99 + $32 each, or $64 (give or take). Twice that would be $128 (plus shipping). This is REALLY rough math. So you come out ahead doing as few as you can, because you're knocking off the $29.99 setup fee. For what it's worth!

Actually I forgot to build in the $10-$15 shipping for each book. So unless you wait for a free shipping promo, the shipping will hit you hard, too.

Mine are single pages per week, so they will all fit in one book. Great math BTW Sarah!

Mine will fit into the book as one page = 1 week, with the odd special pages thrown in.

I started with two page spreads but have been doing single pages lately. For this week and next week, I will probably do two-pagers as I am going to my niece's graduation from law school and will have lots of extra photos I will want to include from her party and the graduation ceremony itself.
