The following information explains how to prepare your materials so that we can create the Twin-Springs product that you are ordering and the completion of the order itself.  The first sections provide guidelines for preparing and sending your materials.

Order Overview

  • Prepare your materials.

  • Place your order using the "Order Form".

  • Either submit via the "Order Email" or mail your materials to Twin-Springs.

  • Receive an Email that we received your materials with the anticipated cost.

  • Receive an Email that we shipped your order.

  • Enjoy your Twin-Springs custom products.

Prepare Your Materials

  • The following steps are only required if you are sending us your photos or images to be used.  They are not needed if you are using Twin-Springs photos for your order.

  • You may send us photographs, 35mm slides, 35mm negatives, any other drawings, collages or artwork, or digital files that are to be used for our products.  A mixture of formats for the same order is acceptable.

  • It is suggested that you do not send antique or one of a kind photos.  Since they are going to be mailed in both directions it is better to make a copy and send that to us.  We do our best to return your materials in the same condition we received them, but cannot guarantee what may happen during mailing.

  • Pick the materials (photos or images) that you want us to use.

  • If you want to create a collage then place the materials on a 8½x11 sheet of white paper and we will scan it “as is”.  Any comments, notes or handwritten text will be automatically included. 

  • Select which image (photo, drawing, collage or artwork) is to be used for which month.

  •  Identify each of the materials with a unique marking, or a Post-It® note on the back, so that we can be assured of putting the right image in the right place.  This identification is used on the Twin-Springs Order Form.

  • If you have old black & white photographs that have aged and have turned yellow and you would like them printed as black & white please indicate this with the material or on the order form.

For Calendars Only

  • Collect the special dates you want included on your custom calendar.  If you want us to calculate the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. occurrence of an Anniversary or Birthday please include the year. Otherwise we are going to just put your text in each appropriate date.

  • Horizontal images work best for calendars.  You can put 2 vertical images on a piece of white paper so they will show side-by-side for the specified month.

  • Decide which photographs go with which months.  Some suggestions include:

    • Put the photo of couples with an anniversary in their anniversary month.

    • Put birthday photos in the month the birthday occurs in.

    • Put vacation photos in the months you normally take vacations.

    • Put holiday photos in the appropriate holiday month.

Mail Your Materials to Twin-Springs

  • We suggest that you send the materials in an envelope that is stiff enough to keep them from being bent, or include a piece of cardboard so that they are protected.
