They make you laugh. They make you cry. Photos are always special. What could be more moving than giving someone a personalised photo gift?

Now it helps if you have some imagination. You don’t need to stick with the usual suspects when it comes to subjects for photo gifts. Of course, we get many requests for turning portrait style photos into crystal gifts. But really, personalised photo gifts present a world of opportunity. The only limits are your ideas and imagination!

Take holidays, for example. Look carefully in your photo collection and you’ll find photos that defined your best holiday memories. Whether it’s a street sign in New Orleans, an all-American Diner or the view from Ben Lomond they’ll be a picture that defined a magic moment. Put it in crystal, and you have a fantastic present for the person you shared the moment with.

Graduations are an overlooked opportunity for creating a lasting, personal gift. If only you’d known then what you know now, eh? But if you know someone who is graduating a personalised photo gift of the occasion may be just the thing. After all, everyone comes to realise sooner or later these really were the best days of their life!

Pure tom foolery can make for great photo moments too. Usually the embarrassing kind! Who hasn’t been on a hen or stage night and taken lots of funny photos? Whether your hen or stag was the worse for wear or misbehaving badly or the photos just marked the end of an era, you can make your snaps last longer. Pick your favourites and turn them into something more memorable in 3D crystal or a crystal photo frame.

And don’t forget. Many of our gifts can incorporate text, laser etched into the crystal.  Perfect for including a title or personal message
