If you want to come up with something really special you should consider a pair of Leopard skin photo cufflinks , they look great and are certainly unique!

Other things to consider include a photo camera case, toiletry bag or maybe even a CD wallet?

You may also want to think about Leopard skin watches, key chains and money clips; they all make really unusual gifts.

Photo golf accessories including divot tools, hat clips and golf ball markers all make great gifts and are certainly worth thinking about.

Gifts for the Kids

Children love unusual gifts so a unique photo gift is sure to be well received.

Choose something from a long list including Leopard skin school bags, watches, mouse pads, dog tags or even a memory card reader.

Gifts for the Home

If you are a person who likes to decorate your home with unusual items you may find a couple of Leopard skin photo cushion covers look perfect in the living room. You could even coordinate them with a Leopard skin wall clock, some Leopard skin photo coasters or maybe even a framed tile?

Conclusion

Most people have a hard time coming up with unique gift ideas, I know I used to! The great thing about personalized photo gifts is they always manage to give people the inspiration to come up with a perfect gift for her or for him, every time!

Put The Fun Back Into Card Games

In the depths of winter many of gather with friends to play cards, one way to enhance the experience is to personalize the deck of cards you are playing with at the game.


Customized playing cards allow almost anyone to put the fun back into card games. It doesn't matter what game you are playing, Poker, Barbu, Spades or Bridge, playing the game with personalized cards always makes it a lot more fun!

If you look around, you will not only find regular shaped playing cards, you will find round cards, heart shaped cards and who knows what else?

Playing cards can be customized in a number of different ways, so much so in fact that you should be able to find exactly what you are looking for.

Standard customization involves having your photos, logos and other designs printed on the back of each card - this is customization in its basic form - each of the 52 cards plus the 2 jokers has the same photo on the reverse side. Playing cards customized in this way are suitable for serious card games such as bridge or brag.

Taking customization to the next level, you will find there are many photo gift websites where you can put a different photo or design on each of the 54 playing cards. Clearly, making your own playing cards with 54 different images means they are not well suited for serious card games, but they really come into their own when playing fun games with the kids and other family members.

The final option offered on personalized playing cards is to have 54 different photos printed on both the front and the back of each card - this is a firm favorite of children and your kids will probably get a real kick from playing with them.

As I already mentioned, although playing cards with 54 different designs are not much use for a serious game of bridge or poker, they make for great fun when playing with the kids. Try testing your memory to see which of you can remember what picture is on each card? Chances are the kids will be telling you you have the ace of hearts and the 10 of spades in your hand.... and you won't have a clue what they have!

Apart from the obvious fun, personalized cards can also help both children and adults to improve their memories!

If you do decide to make your own playing cards, before you upload your photos and designs to a photo gifts website, it's worth taking the time to find out how the cards are printed. The standard for high quality playing cards is Fuji Xerox Docucolor or the equivalent. By following this advice you will ensure your custom playing cards are finished to the highest quality standard.

There's no mistaking it, customized playing cards really do make great gift ideas for just about anyone, men, women and children will all get a kick out of playing with their own personalized cards!

To sum up, if you are like the majority of us, you love "Do it Yourself" projects and custom photo gifts are almost certainly no exception. You will find making your own personalized playing cards is great fun, especially when you design and create them yourself using your own special pictures, logo's and text.

Stocking Stuffers what about Personalized Magnets?

Stuck for an idea for a great stocking stuffer? Think about personalized magnets. Personalized magnets come in a variety of styles. There are picture frames to hold the portraits of loved ones and pets, ranging in size from a snapshot style several inches across to frames as small as a postage stamp. Magnets attached to wooden slats on which the names of family members are painted are quite popular. Sometimes the magnet is just a flat glass marble glued over a picture of something or someone, or a written word, which has significance to the person who owns the magnet. Other magnets are bulldog clips with children's names on them, so that classroom artwork can be hung and its tiny artist immediately identified by all who see it.

When realtors are preparing homes for an open house to try to sell them, two of the most important elements they use to interest potential buyers are photographs on the walls and magnets on the refrigerator. Just as having family photographs around can make a house feel more inviting, so too can decorating with magnets make a house feel more like a home.

Though they are often referred to and thought of as simply "refrigerator magnets ," these keepsakes need not be restricted merely to the fridge and freezer. These little mementos can be used elsewhere in the kitchen, as well as in other rooms throughout the entire home. They don't even have to be very pretty to make a more welcoming environment, they just have to be special to the people using them.

Dishwashers are a great place to use custom magnets , and not just for decorative purposes. A reversible magnet on which you've written "clean" on one end and "dirty" on the other is quite useful. Magnets with the names of everyone in the house who takes a turn doing dishes can be used to keep track of just who is next in line for that chore. Certainly moving magnets around is a lot more fun than arguing over which one of you did the chore last time.

Personalized magnets can be used on the metal edges of medicine cabinets, too. Leaving a child a note on the mirror with his or her own magnet is a much more personal way to give them a reminder of something than a text or an email. Using magnets on electronics is not advisable, but placing a "World's Best" magnet, or a picture frame with a family photo in it, on your metal desk can certainly help brighten a home office.

One of the best things about photo magnets is that they are a fun and easy craft for the family to do together. With a package of magnetic strips or sheets, some glue, a little paint and a few other small items, each person can make his or her own very special keepsake. Then each one can be displayed proudly in whatever fashion your family chooses. Something as simple as a bottle cap from a family vacation can be turned into a lasting treasure in just a few minutes.

Personalized Phone Cases Make Great Gifts Ideas For The Holidays

Thinking of the ideal holiday gift for the hard to please person in your life? Do you know anyone that doesn't own a mobile phone? Do you know anyone that wouldn't like a stunning personalized case to make their phone stand out from the crowd? I rest my case…. That is why personalized phone cases make such wonderful gifts ideas; nearly everyone needs one to help protect their expensive devices and better still, most people want one too! 

It doesn't matter if it's an iPhone or any other mobile phone, the concept is the same, personalized cases not only help protect your investment in modern communication devices, they can also give it a stunning look and provide it with its own identity.

The best thing about fully customizable phone cases is they can usually be found for any make or model phone, they are easily personalized with your own photos, logos, designs and text, they can usually be personalized free of any additional costs and they are always freely available online at most photo gift web-stores. Better still, when you design and create your own personalized case, it is often cheaper than its ready-made cousins you find in mobile phone shops the world over!

It's not difficult to make your own design and place it on a mobile phone case. If you have the artistic skills the world is your oyster when it comes to making your own designs, however, for most of us, we are sadly lacking in this area and even fewer of us are capable of producing our own graphic designs, so we need to look elsewhere.

There's no need to panic though - we are all capable of making our own designs by simply using our own photos, logos, text and a few other things I will get into later…. It's not as hard as it sounds!

Personalized Watches Are Suitable For Any Occasion



If you are looking for the perfect present to give to your friend or loved one this holiday season, consider a personalized gift. Most everyone loves receiving these types of gifts as they show that you took the time to get something just for them. Personalized watches make great gifts, and you can get them with special engravings to make a cherished present for any occasion.

Choose a Style

The first thing you should do when choosing custom watches is to consider the style you would like to buy. Think about the recipient and what style he or she would like. While some people may prefer a modern look, others may like a classic or trendy look. Yet other people might like a funky, silly look.

Although you want your gift to be unique, you also want it to be something that the recipient will like wearing. With that said, you need to take into account the personal style of the recipient as well as such things as his or her favorite color and designs. In this way, your gift will be cherished for many years to come and not just tucked away in a drawer.

Consider Your Budget

In a perfect world, people would never have to think about money when purchasing gifts for their friends, family and loved ones. However, many people are on tight budgets today. If you are one of those people, you will want to shop around for a personalized watch that you think will be well received, but that will fit into your budget as well. This does not have to be difficult, as there are many fine replicas that look exactly like the real things.

Choose Your Personalization

The next thing that you will need to do is choose how you want your gift personalized. One of the most popular personalization is the recipient's initials. This is a classic choice, and your gift recipient will be sure to love it. However, if you want to be unique, you can add such things as a personal message, a meaningful saying, a date, or even a small symbol or picture.

Choose Your Setting

The last step is to decide how you would like to give your gift to your friend or loved one. Do you want to give your gift in a personal, intimate setting, or do you want to give it during a party? The answer to this question depends upon the event and you. If the watch is a birthday gift, giving it at a party should be appropriate. However, if it is an engagement gift, you may want to give it to your partner while the two of you are alone.

Personalized gifts make some of the best presents ever, and watches that are personalized are favorites among both men and women, alike. When you are shopping for that perfect watch though, you will want to keep the above points in mind. In doing all of this, you will be sure to find a terrific gift that your loved one will cherish for several years

Surprise Your Spouse This Christmas Design Your Own Gift for them

When the holidays come around each year we always face the same dilemma - what can we buy for our wife or husband for a Christmas surprise? While often our spouses' tell us exactly what they want for their main present, most of us still like to get a second or even third gift, so our loved ones' still have a surprise or two on Christmas morning. The single best way to achieve a real surprise, a present that will get the reaction you are looking for, is to design your own gift . 

The term "design your own gift" sounds like something that's difficult to accomplish, but in reality it's not difficult at all, in fact it's rather easy.

There are dozens of photo gift web-stores on the Internet, all of which offer a wide array of fully customizable gifts. These web-stores allow you to upload your own photos, logos and designs to their websites, and then provide a platform that lets you design your own gift by adding your photos, logos and designs to any of their customizable products. After you have added your photos and designs, you also have the option of adding any text you choose, maybe the person's name, your name (the giver's name), the date or perhaps something as simple as "Happy Christmas". Follow this easy process and you will be able to create your own gift in no time at all!

A few gifts ideas to help you on your way…..

For him and for her

Some of the most popular personalized gifts ideas around include custom tablet computer and mobile phone cases. People just love to dress-up their communication devices in their own clothing - it helps them to distinguish their own devices from the masses.

However, the only way to guarantee total uniqueness is to make your own design - that may be something as simple as a photo of the owner of the device, a photo of their spouse, a photo of their child(ren), a logo or if you have the skills to produce it, your own intricate design.

Other popular custom personalized gifts ideas that are suitable for both sexes include camera cases, photo to canvas prints, dog tags, key rings, mouse pads, mugs, photo bags, umbrellas and watches.

All of these items can be customized with your own photos, logos, designs and text. All you need to do is choose an appropriate product, personalize it with photos, designs and text that you know are dear and meaningful to the gift recipient, and you will have the perfect surprise present on Christmas morning!

For her

If you are looking for a unique gift idea for your wife you may want to consider some of the following fully customizable items:

Blankets, charms, clothing, compact mirrors, cosmetic bags, earrings, flip flops, handbags, necklaces, sleep masks, sling bags and tote bags.

For him

Conversely, if you are in need of a unique gift idea for your husband, the custom items that follow may be just what you are looking for…

Belt buckles, business card holders, car accessories, cufflinks, golf accessories, hip flasks, money clips, playing cards, toiletries bags and wallets.

The bottom line

The secret to finding the best gift ideas for anyone, whatever the occasion, regardless of age or gender, is firstly to make sure the product you choose is something you think they need and are therefore likely to use.

Secondly you need to have a good understanding of their likes and dislikes - for example, if a lady loves her dog but hates cats, you should never personalize her handbag with a picture of a cat, but obviously a picture of her dog would work extremely well.

I know this example sounds obvious and it clearly is, but the lesson here is to make sure that when you design your own gift , you think long and hard about the best way to customize it rather than just personalizing it with the first photo or design that comes to mind!
