Personalized Photo Gifts Are Thoughtful, One-Of-A-Kind Gestures

Add A Sentimental Touch Of History To New Gifts

photo giftsThe best gifts are personal. They show the time and thought you put into coming up with the idea, and reflect how well you know the recipient. During the holidays, when people give and receive so many presents, you want yours to stand out.

Transferring treasured photos onto CD is the first step to creating a unique gift. You’re probably familiar with personalized coffee mugs, cakes and mouse pads, but did you know you can also display your favorite photos on jewelry, brownies and even lollipops? Take the blanket in this picture, which could keep a child warm early on and provide comfort when he leaves home for college year later.

Rather than purchase a generic frame at a big-box store, you can have ScanDigital digitally optimize and load up to 2,000 pictures onto this frame, so it’s ready to go as soon as the wrapping paper’s off. Or you can have the photos compiled into a Digital Slideshow – complete with title, chapters and music – that anyone with a DVD player can watch.

Scrapbook Image2Now if you’re an avid scrapbooker, you know exactly how much time and energy it takes to produce a single book, let alone enough copies to share with every family member. Now you can make one that benefits the whole clan just by sending us your pages, which we can scan your scrapbooks. This also is a cost-effective method that allows you to share the one scrapbook with all of your relatives.

For personalized presents like these, it’s always a good idea to scan your photos onto CD beforehand. This gives you an opportunity to evaluate your inventory and select the best images. Of course, once friends and family see what wonderful presents you’re giving, they’ll want to do the same the next year.

4 Funky Photo Gift Ideas

Thursday, August 13th, 2009

Every holiday my sisters and I have the same problem. We never know what to get my dad. Whatever he needs, he gets for himself or his wife gets it for him and it doesn’t leave us with much to get him for gifts. It’s always really hard to come up with creative idea. It seems like every holiday we get him the same thing- either a frame with pictures of us or a shirt or something. To make things even worse, his birthday is only two weeks after Father’s Day, so we have to come up with two different gift ideas in such a short amount of time.

I’m sure that many other people have the same trouble finding good gifts to give their parents. So I thought I’d do a little research online to see if I could find some cool things. Since parents always love to have new current pictures of their kids, but only have so much wall space for frames, I looked up some different gifts that involve photos.

1. Photo Engraved Dog Tag

One of my favorites is a photo engraved dog tag. It can be worn on a chain as a necklace or put onto a keychain. Here are a couple pictures to give you an idea of what they’re like:

2. Photo Clock

Another cool gift I found was a photo clock from Future Memories. I bought one for my mom and she loved it. You cut out photos of your family or friends and use the magnets to hold them on the clock to represent the numbers.

3. Photo Cupcakes

This one is great for birthdays… who wouldn’t love a delicious cupcake with a photo printed on edible rice paper? Check out Mrs. Beasleys to order this yummy gift.

4. Magnetic Photo Ropes

Last but not least, here is a product we’re offering through our partner Photojojo, that’s a stylish alternative to a picture frame. For people who do have some extra wall space they’re looking to fill up, magnetic photo rope is a lot more exciting than a boring frame! And don’t forget to check out the Photojojo Store  for tons of other fun photo products.
