Customer Spotlight: Beautiful Genealogy Charts

Family ChartMasters is absolutely thrilled to offer genealogy charts that become focal points in our customers' homes. We recently designed a genealogy chart for Kathy from Arizona who turned it into a beautiful art piece.  Displayed on a large easel, she had it framed and matted in a gorgeous ornate gold frame that complements her home decor. 

Kathy loved her chart so much that she decided to have Family ChartMasters create a posterity chart for her mother, Pat.  This memorable chart included Pat and her husband, and all their children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren with many family and individual photos on the chart to keep her loved ones close.

Family ChartMasters' genealogy charts make excellent gifts for the holidays.  Let us know when you submit your file for the free consultation that your chart will be a gift. We can then size it for standard frame sizes.  Let us do the designing and printing, then all you have to do is wrap it, and enjoy the smiles when your loved ones receive your gift of family history love.

Last year Family ChartMasters created a chart for a wonderful lady that was donated by an anonymous benefactor.  We had so much fun participating in this generous act of kindness, and spoiling this sweet client with lots of attention and making sure she received exactly what she wanted.  Please know that we love helping you with stealthy gift giving. We'll treat anyone who receives one of our gift certificates like a VIP.

And if you want to design a chart yourself to give, we'll work back and forth with you over a private email account, leave the invoice out of the package, and ship to alternative addresses. When you give the gift of a chart we'll do everything we can to meet your deadline and make it perfect.  And the gift certificates are an instant download.  Let us know what you need us to do to keep this gift a surprise and we will make your special person feel well taken care of.  We love making you look good and we are really awesome at keeping secrets.  Think of Family ChartMasters as your undercover gift giving elves; making it easy on you and bringing total delight with a meaningful gift.
