How to Make a "Thank You" Book as a Holiday Gift

By ehow.com
Step1
Write down all the things you are thankful for. If the book is for your parents, you might include things such as "Thank you for teaching me how to drive" or "Thank you for going to all my soccer games."
Step2
Come up with as many as you can; you’ll need at least 25 to make the book a decent size.
Step3
Enter them all into a word-processing program. Hit Return after every four or five words so that each reason takes up three to four lines of text.
Step4
Insert a page break after each reason so that you end up with one per page. Center the text both horizontally and vertically.
Step5
Select an attractive, easy-to-read font, and then increase the font size to somewhere between 18 and 24 points.
Step6
Create a title page that simply says, "Thank You," in 36-point type.
Step7
Print it all out on your printer using the best print quality.
Step8
Draw crop marks lightly on the title page showing where you want the pages cut; a good rule is the crop marks should be 2 inches from the text.
Step9
Take your printouts to a copy center (such as Kinko’s), and have them print out all your reasons on high-quality résumé paper. Ask them to copy the title page and a blank back page onto heavy cardstock to create a cover. Then have all of it tape bound and cropped according to your marks.
