Take The Work Out Of Holiday Shopping With Personalized Picture Frame Gifts.


Last year as a very new mom I barely got my Christmas shopping done, with too much of it occurring when the countdown was measured in hours instead of days, so this year I am getting a slight jump on things. Everyone gets a personalized picture of my son in a frame as one of their gifts, but lately I’ve come across so many photo gift websites that make me want to take that special gift and bump it up to interesting or extraordinary.

I have already gifted many people with what has become the standard in photo gifts, like
mouse pads and picture purses, but the available items just keep getting more elegant and
desirable. For instance Grandma and Grandpa’s stockings used to be stuffed with 2X3 photos to update their wallets, now you can have the pictures printed right on the leather of the wallet, no opening required to display those precious faces.

Everyone’s favorite, jewelry, has also really stepped up a notch. Loading a precious memory onto a unique piece of jewelry results in a beautiful and elegant gift, the look of costume jewelry that used to be the result is a thing of the past. Even better is the selection available for men, like dog tags, cuff links and watches. They can now print anything from color to black and white right onto precious metals like sterling silver, making me not so subtly hint to my husband about the rings.

As I complete my Christmas shopping I find my own wish list getting longer with the new things I’ve been coming across. My absolute favorite is the photos etched on stone. Pictures on stone have been available for a while with a rather high price tag, but now they are both much more reasonable and loaded with impressive detail that is begging to be displayed.

And if you want to stick with your framed photo, but maybe spice it up just a hint, you can get a framed photo light. It is based on a porcelain engraving art form called lithopane, but it is essentially your photo carved into porcelain and backlit to illuminate your memory with stunning detail. When the lights are out and you are fondly admiring your decorated tree, wouldn’t you want to see a beautiful photo lit on your mantel beside it?

Why not give beautiful, meaningful gifts to the people you love? Especially when you don’t even need to leave the house to do it. Parents of toddlers know the true value of shopping from home, take advantage of a naptime and get your holiday shopping done before Thanksgiving. Sleep off your turkey without having to anxiously await fighting the Black Friday crowds for rain checks. The really beautiful stuff takes a few weeks to create and ship, so shop today.
