Bespoke Family History Albums
Luxury custom made family history binders, in any size or configuration
What starts as an achievement folder, memory or keepsake box today, is tomorrow's family heirloom
This certificate folder is how it all started for H&Co.
The Genesis of Hartnack and Co was this certificate binder. Jackie was looking for a 'special' personalised binder that she could keep all the achievement certificates of her daughter Charlotte in. She couldn't find one good enough (special enough!) so she made one herself.
The fabric cover is from a dress she had made for Charlotte when she was three (pictured with her sister). She found how to convert it into a book cloth, found a You Tube class in book binding and... Here we are today.

Bespoke Medical and Surgical Portfolios
If you have a critical interview coming up that requires a comprehensive medical or surgical folder, we've been making custom and bespoke medical portfolios for many years.
How it is all made
It begins from scratch, You've decided everything, style, format, size, colour the whole lot. Then from that it begins with a piece of grey board, or leather that's cut out to size and the making your portfolio begins.
Choose from a wide selection of material options
You are not restricted to just one colour or fabric.
Mix and match (there is no extra charge) and you can colour it the way you'd like.
The materials we use are archive safe, acid free book cloth, ensuring all your precious memories are kept safe for years to come. We would always recommend a buckram outer cover as this is water resistant and hard wearing, can be easily cleaned ensuring it stays pristine.
Click on the link below to go to our swatch page.
Personalise it with a wide range of typeface options
We offer over twenty different fonts for you to choose from which gives you a wide selection of personalisation options.
Should you want something even more unique and you have the design skill and the right Adobe software, you can send us a vector image of what you would like embossed.
