Putting Your Life Together, Collage-Style

So what do you do with those photographs and mementos that hold special memories? If you're Maria Shriver and you're shopping for husband Arnold Schwarzenegger, you call Collagery, a business that designs three-dimensional personalized collages.

Working with information and memorabilia supplied by Shriver, collagists Miriam Hacken and Helen Linden created a 4'x7' collage that included photographs of Arnold through the years, as well as body building and movie mementos.

Let's face it - memories are in, as evidenced by the great interest in the create-your-own-photo album business. Collagery takes it a step further: They design the collage for their clients and the photos/mementos are always on display. Their time-capsule pieces have filled the niche for the "milestone" occasions, e.g., 50th anniversary, 40th birthday, when giving a personalized gift capturing years of memories can be meaningful.

"The essence of our company is to bring out the best in people by creating artwork that reflects their lives, passions, and achievements", states Miriam Hacken, co-owner of the 16-year business she shares with twin sister Helen Linden. "By receiving a gift all about themselves, the recipients discover how they are perceived by others".

The 3-dimensional collages are coated with a protective resin that allows mementos to be incorporated, such as golf balls, business cards, vacation souvenirs, etc. Even general-theme collages for business establishments can be personalized to reflect the company's attributes and accomplishments.

It's the ultimate gift for the person who has everything," says Helen Linden. "It's a This-Is-Your-Life Artwork."
