What Is the 'My First Year' Board?
This board features twelve engraved photo frames—one for each month of your child’s first year—along with a personalised acrylic name plaque and space for your baby’s birth details. It’s the kind of piece that belongs at milestone celebrations and stays proudly on display long after the party is over.
Product highlights:
- A2 Size (420mm x 594mm) – big enough to make a statement, sized to display
- Engraved borders for each month – clearly marked and beautifully spaced
- Custom name in acrylic – white or black acrylic only
- Optional gloss or matte finish
- Clear sizing template included for perfect photo fitting
This board comes ready to personalise with your photos—and we include a handy cutting template to make sizing a breeze.
What Size Photos Should I Print?
To get the best results, we recommend printing your photos in 4" x 4" size. This square format most closely matches our engraved template, allowing you to centre and crop your images perfectly. You can also use 6" x 4" prints if needed—just be sure to use the included template to trim them to size.
Tip: Always use the clear template on the front of your photo to frame up the image before trimming—it gives you the best chance of keeping faces and key details in the frame.
How to Assemble Your First Year Board
When your board arrives, follow these steps to finish your milestone piece:
- Keep the clear template! It’s included in your packaging and is essential for accurate photo sizing.
- Mark and cut: Place the template over the front of your photo and use a grey lead pencil or pen to mark the edges. Cut with scissors or use an exacto knife for clean edges.
- Attach your photos: Use double-sided tape or similar adhesive to mount your photos inside each engraved frame.
- Display your board: Place it on an easel or use 3M Velcro strips to mount it on the wall without damage.
That’s it! You now have a beautiful keepsake that tells the story of your baby’s first year—month by month.
