Use A Digital Photo To Give The Light Of Your Life The Ultimate In Personalized Gifts.
July 15, 2009
A light in the dark represents so much. To a child it is protection from the monsters under the bed. To a sailor it is a safe guide through the night. Through new technology it can now be a glowing tribute to a memory that you hold dear. If you are looking for top of the line personalized gifts, send your digital photo to be carved into a beautiful light.
Being a proud mother with more pictures of my adorable son than I know what to do with I am constantly searching for unique photo gifts. When I ran across the process of illuminating photos I was instantly intrigued.
They take your photo and carve it into a translucent material. It has all the simple elegance of a black and white photo, the variance in thickness of the material creating the gradient of the photo’s tones. When you light it from behind it makes your precious memory glow with an ethereal beauty. They even give you an option of frames to compliment the light or just make it match your home.
Even if I didn’t have a child, my home would have a variety of nightlights for safety and solace. Add a baby and guaranteed late night wakeups and they are an absolute necessity. These beautiful works of art shame the glowing frog in my bathroom outlet. While their uncomplicated beauty would compliment any home, they could easily reside in a church.
I am a fan of cathedrals like Norte Dame with their spires and stained glass and that is not an endorsement I give lightly. It need not even be night to view these lovely displays, although they do shine through the darkness like a beacon of hope promising sweet dreams and happy memories.
These delightful pieces belong on a mantel; don’t let their function hide them in a dark hallway. For such elegance the prices are unbelievably reasonable. You can easily afford to both display the artwork with your other precious photos and light your bathroom.
Whether it is your wedding day, your child’s first smile, or the first time your mother held you, the memory will be illuminated fantastically. If you have a photo that shows the light of your life, that makes you glow every time you glance at it, then that picture has a higher calling. Let the light shine through and illuminate your happy memories.
