The Vision & The Quote

“Seek out that particular mental attribute which makes you feel most deeply and vitally alive... and when you have found that attitude, follow it.”

How Collagery Was Born

Years ago, finding a personalized gift for a unique name like “Miriam” was nearly impossible. Everything changed when a close friend handcrafted a custom collage for Miriam's birthday, capturing her exact interests. Thrilled by the emotional impact of the gift, Miriam teamed up with her twin sister, Helen. Together, they set out to create that same joy for others.

Twin Artistry & Our Sister Brand

Two Sister Brands, One Shared Passion

Together, we spent years developing our signature 3D look, perfecting a specialized protective coating that securely seals photographs while allowing us to embed physical mementos.

Our Expanding Journey: While Miriam continues to design these beautiful storytelling collages here at Collagery, Helen has expanded her passion for memory keeping with her own business, Clear Preservations. clearpreservations.com.  As an innovative clear alternative to traditional bronzing, Clear Preservations hand-crafts high-gloss durable coatings to preserve three-dimensional keepsakes like baby shoes, sports memorabilia, and hats in their beautiful, original forms.

Gracing the Walls of Icons

Our custom 3D collages are cherished by families worldwide, including notable figures such as:

  • Arnold Schwarzenegger

  • Maria Shriver

  • Bobby Shriver

  • Sportscaster Al Michaels

  • Renowned musicians Kenny Loggins, Walter Becker & Tony Orlando

  • Iconic writers/authors: Neil Simon & Jackie Collins, and Andrew Neiderman

After every creation, we come to the same beautiful conclusion: we all have a wonderful life filled with memories. Let us show them to you.
