If you prepare it together

Leave some time to collect everyone's note. A suggested order:

  1. 1

    Start collecting the notes

    Share the collection link so everyone writes their own note. A week is a good window for a large group.

  2. 2

    Finish the design

    Upload the photo, go through the notes, design the cards. Your file is in your account right after payment.

  3. 3

    Print and paint

    Print the file at the size you chose and keep a day or two for painting. The notes need no paint.

Ready-made notes

A few lines from the ready-made pack for this day. You see them all in the editor and pick the ones you like.

Start with these notes
  • “Welcome little heart”
  • “You brought light into our world”
  • “Every day waiting for you was a celebration”
  • “Tiny hands carrying so much love”
  • “The best gift of our lives”
  • “Your first smile changed us all”

Let everyone write a note

Share the collection link; everyone writes their note without an account. The notes land in your artwork by themselves; switch off the ones you do not want. You decide how many notes.

A portrait on your wall, your words inside

From afar it is a portrait; up close, the notes among the letters.

Notes to read when they're older

A newborn can't read the notes yet. But the portrait on their nursery wall will start whispering to them the day they learn to read. With Revelo, the baby's photo becomes a portrait made of letters, and the first words from Mom, Dad, grandparents and friends are hidden in between.

How it works

  1. Choose a photo. A close-up where the baby's face is clear.
  2. Collect the family's notes. Share one link in the family group so everyone can write to the baby, or pick from the ready-made "New baby" notes like "We counted the days until we could meet you."
  3. The notes are hidden in the portrait. Each sentence runs on among the letters.
  4. Print and paint. As the marked squares are painted, the baby's portrait appears. Painting it together in the first weeks makes a lovely family moment.

Design the baby's portrait

As a baby shower or birth gift

A friend just had a baby? Instead of one more outfit, collect notes from your friend group and give a portrait. Ask the parents for a photo and share the collection link with friends. For a big group, A1 (23.4 × 33.1 in) or 70 × 100 cm gives more room.

What to write

  • The day, time and city they were born
  • What you felt when you first saw them
  • A piece of advice for when they're older
  • Why their name was chosen

Frequently asked questions

Will a newborn photo be clear enough?

A close-up photo in good light works best; sleeping-baby photos often turn out well. A photo of the baby in a parent's arms works too.

Can family and friends write notes?

Yes. Share one collection link with the family or with everyone who got the birth announcement. Everyone writes a note to the baby without an account, and you can switch off any note you don't want.

How will the child read the notes later?

The notes are hidden among the letters, so once they can read, they can find them on the wall. Each note is also kept as its own card on the private gift page, and you decide when each one opens.

What do I receive?

A printable painting file, the painted preview, an outline view, designed note cards and a link to a private gift page where the notes are read. Everything is in your account right after payment. We don't print or ship; you print the file wherever you like.
