About Us.............
Create-A-Keepsake opened on Front Street, Georgetown, S.C. in December 2003.   The idea for the shop came from finding
boxes of things my parents had saved and more importantly, what was not saved. There was no one to ask the many questions that
come up after the passing of a loved one. I needed to find a way to provide items that would be kept as a family keepsake.    The
children's personalized books led to the music CD's personalized.   From there evolved family memory books for Mom's, Dad's, and
Grandparents.  We carry books for brides to start recording their anniversary memories.  Baby books and School Memory Books for
children.  A Family Recipe Book for all those foods we never want to forget that only "your" family can make.

Special items that are not found in every shop include personalized barbeque platters, birthday plates, collegiate ceramics.   We
have a line of specialty baby gifts, christening bibs, a suitcase to take to Grandma's, a photo a month first year photo frame and too
many other items to mention.    


The newest addition to our business is
Stationery and  Invitations.  We print many types of invitations, announcements and
stationery on site including
Odd Balls, Checkerboard Invitations and of course, we have many catalogs from the wedding specialists
at
Carlson Craft and Birchcraft.

We have recently relocated to CANTON, GEORGIA.  We still carry many of the same lines and can easily ship whatever you need.   
Just give us a call at (678) 350-8150 or email us at: createakeepsake@mail.com.   

We look forward to hearing from you and continuing to serve you.  
Front Street in Historic Seaport Georgetown, South Carolina, is
the downtown shopping area.   Tourist and locals alike can find an
eclectic mix of shops and restaurants to suit everyone's taste.
The Georgetown Light House can
only be viewed by boat and there
are several tour companies taking
visitors daily to the lighthouse.
They are proud of our waterfront and its
history.  A beautiful harborwalk was built to
allow visitors to stroll and enjoy
our seaport.  
Georgetown County, located between Myrtle Beach and Charleston, South Carolina, is steeped in tales of dynamic men and
women who once lived and prospered here. Though these men and women have now passed away, many of their spirits still
remain. Rumor has it that there are over a hundred ghosts in the area, making Georgetown County one of the nation's most
haunted locations.

Ghost tours are also available in Georgetown by land and sea  - stop by the Visitors Center on Front and Queen Streets for
information.

Traveling on Highway 17 through the City of Georgetown, you won't find us unless you turn off on St. James St., Broad St. or
Front Street!!  It's worth the visit.
