Custom Photo Collage Gifts - Thoughtful and Personal Gift Ideas

For a special and unique gift idea, consider a Photo Collage Gift.
A collage made from a collection of special photos is a perfect thoughtful gift for any occasion.

A personal gift is often so much more meaningful to the recipient. Especially in hard economic times, it is difficult to find a gift that is special, unique and affordable. More than ever, people are looking at photo gifts as something that fits the bill of a creative and thoughtful personal gift. Collage photo gifts are perfect for most occasions, life events and milestones.

Make a photo puzzle or mug (or poster or mousepad-- let your imagination be your guide!) from a collection of photos commemorating a special trip or a special occasion.

Wedding Photo Collages are a unique way to rekindle all the fond memories of your special day. Giving members of the wedding party a collage mug featuring photos of the entire party makes a perfect memento. Commemorate the rehearsal dinner with collage mugs for each special guest.

A photo collage makes a very unique anniversary memento for a special couple. Putting together a puzzle comprised of shots of great moments in your life together- what a fun way to spend quality time.

Show off photos of your new baby with a collage of funny and cute photos of him/her making it through their first year milestones. Make grandma a collage puzzle of photos of all the grandkids.

Recognize a special person with photo mementos of their special times. This type of collage gift works well for a retirement or "good-bye" gift.

Family reunions can be enhanced with a commemorative mug for each family member. I have heard these are the "hit" of many family reunions- a themed mug to tie together a common bond.

"Best Friends Forever" collage mugs or posters are a great way to let your friends know that they are in your heart forever.

A collage of special memento photos makes a great romantic gift idea for Valentine's Day or anytime just to say, "I love you."

Making a collage gift can be fun and easy. If you decide to do it yourself, look for a place that allows you to use online tools to design it exactly the way you want it to look. Part of the fun of making a special gift is in deciding what photos to use and how to present them. Some questions to ask yourself:

• What is the general theme of the collage? (Is it a memento of a trip? a montage of your wedding photos? pics of all the grandkids smiling? pictures of the "life of Peter and Lisa"?)
• How many photos do you want? Just 2 or 3 special photos or a montage of 8 or 9 or more?
• Do you want all the photos to be equally featured? Or, do you want to highlight one or two special photos with other photos as accents?
• Do you want the photos to do all the talking? Or, do you want to add text?
• Colors? Do you want your photos highlighted against a classic black or white background, or do you want to use a background color that makes your photos "pop?"

The fun of making your gift is only equaled by the fun of seeing the delight in your recipient's face when it is given as a special gift!

Personalized photo gifts are great mementos of special times, special places and special people. Make a memorable gift with a photo collage.
