 created a 4'x7' collage that included photographs of Arnold through the years, as well as body building and movie mementos.

"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 14-year business she shares with twin sister Helen Linden. "By receiving a gift about themselves, the recipients discover how they are perceived by others."

There is great interest in preserving memories, as evidenced by the successful create-your-own-photo album business. Collagery, however, designs the collages for their clients and the photos/mementos are always displayed.

The 3D collages are coated with a protective resin that allows mementos to be incorporated, such as golf balls, business cards, souvenirs, etc. Businesses have had collages created for them to portray that special corporate image.

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