Throughout the year, there are always occasions (birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, ...) for which we look for special gift ideas. It can be hard to think of something, as you probably want to create a truly special gift for your friends or family.
To counter the general craze for unnecessary gifts, personalized gifts bring particular joy. Based on a photo or a personal dedication, the memory of a special moment is preserved and reminds us of that special occasion from the heart in everyday life.
What does personalization mean?
A personalized gift is a personal gift where a basic product is customized with a completely personalized design. The personal touch puts a smile on the recipient's face.
Photo gifts transform an ordinary product into a very personal gift.
What is a very personal gift?
To make a personal gift memorable, it makes sense to choose something the recipient uses often. Should it be a gift with a message that is used frequently in everyday life (e.g., a photo mug, a cushion, or a phone case), or rather something that serves as decoration (e.g., a photo canvas, photo books)?
With photo gifts, you should also pay attention to the quality of the final product so that the recipient can enjoy it for a long time and cherish many special moments with it. Choose a photo of a moment or occasion that the recipient also likes to look back on.
How do I personalize a gift?
The process for creating personalized gifts depends on the provider. With certain printing companies, you can configure your photo gift directly online.
At Avenwood, we focus on high-quality advice, and our graphic designers create a preview of the personalized case based on a photo or text. Here you can have your phone case designed yourself.
How do I choose a suitable photo?
You no longer need a top-quality photo from a professional photographer to create photo gifts. We can take very good photos with our smartphones. In everyday life, these are often the moments that make us reminisce and put a smile on our faces.
However, even with photos taken on a phone, you should still try to achieve the best possible quality. Photos with higher contrast (lots of light and dark) are better suited than very light or dark images with little contrast.
Also pay attention to the size of the photo gift. If it is a very small product, you should choose a photo with details or a close-up image for your personal gift.
Delivery and service
Since personalized gifts are usually needed for a specific date, you should pay attention to the delivery time. Also check whether the gift is shipped from Switzerland or abroad. Deliveries from abroad can be delayed and additional customs fees may be added to the price.
All photo gifts from Avenwood are shipped from Switzerland via A-Post within 1–2 business days after your order.
Photo gifts for every occasion
Photo gifts or personalized gifts are particularly suitable for the following occasions: birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, retirement gifts, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Christmas, and personal gifts for friends.
