After the season of celebration approaches, the search and scramble for the right and perfect gift is then on. Many a time, when it comes to choosing something for our loved ones whether that could be our family, friends, or any of our work colleagues, we always find ourselves often running out of ideas. For one, there is no product as classic and profound as a picture frame during this time of the year. It not only preserves special events but also features a personal feel or touch that is appreciated by the other party. Let’s look at why framed pictures are perfect for holiday gifts and what other types of gifts are perfect for the holiday season to complement the framed picture.
1. Framed Pictures: A Gift of Timeless Memories
Rarely can a gift be too special without being, first and foremost, thoughtful, and framed pictures embody this idea. They make a moment memorable and artsy, it can be a family photo shoot, a vacation photo shoot, or that lovely candid moment. Given that a framed picture is presented during the ‘time of the year’ when people tend to evaluate the year behind and stay with their closest ones, the piece feels an order of magnitude more significant.
Customizable and Personal
Customization is one of the biggest strengths of framed picture gifts. Even the photo that is to be printed can be chosen from a variety of pictures; the frame and the style of the receiver can also be considered while selecting them. No matter if it is a minimalist steel frame or a rustic wooden one, the result is a beautiful personalized piece of art for the receiver.
Perfect for Every Space
Framed pictures fit into every home or office. Classified as conventional home decorations or added to galleries, framed photos look perfect whether placed on a mantel, hung on a wall, or used as a centerpiece on a desk. This makes them perfect for anyone on your holiday list from grandparents who love remembering moments to friends who like documenting adventures.
2. Other Holiday-Related Gift Ideas to Pair with Framed Pictures
If you’re looking to enhance your gift or add a little extra flair to your holiday offerings, here are some complementary ideas that pair wonderfully with framed pictures:
Customized Photo Books
Where a framed picture can tell a story, a photo book opens the door to a full year’s worth of stories. Design a photo book of some happy moments that both of you have had but can be comforting to the one who loves to look back on the good things in life.
Holiday-Themed Frames
If you intend to bring cheerful spirits, you can go for a picture that they frame with holiday picture frames. Had these frames been wearing seasonal features such as snowflakes, pine trees, or sparkles, then your photo may appear all the more special. As added it is the best way to ensure that the gift is given about the season as is required.
DIY Framing Kits
The individualist can frame their picture or get a framing kit as a present for the DIY enthusiast on your list. Couple it with a favorite print or poster and the recipient can choose to create a custom-framed picture to fit into the room.
Ornaments with Mini Pictures
Miniature of pictures and concept of the ornament. They would make wonderful Christmas ornaments or even lovely shabby chic family trees which makes them ideal for anyone who enjoys having ornaments at home. You might add a tiny family picture or some other picture that you think would make it more personal.
Canvas Prints
If you want to go further, there is nothing better than a photograph on a canvas. These prints are generally bigger than the standard photographs and are hung without the assistance of frames, which lend an artistic look to the photos. A photo drawn on canvas can be a beautiful picture of the landscape or family that is appropriate and beautiful for a gift.
Photo Calendars
A photo calendar is a functional yet thoughtful gift that is used throughout the year. Every month can be a separate memory that people can love very much, so it is indeed a good choice for grandparents, parents, or friends who would love to have an every-use serving plate with great sentiment.
Digital Photo Frames
A more contemporary gift idea that you can give is a digital photo frame. These frames enable the recipient to upload several pictures, which are demolished and replaced with the next on show. This one is great for people who like to have different pictures and do not want to have physical prints at all.
3. Holiday Presentation Tips: Packaging Your Framed Picture
We are all well aware that how you are given a gift matters very much in the overall experience in receiving the gift. Here are a few tips to ensure your framed picture is wrapped and presented with holiday flair:
- Festive Wrapping Paper: Always select wrapping paper, which would complement the holiday it symbolizes – snowflakes, deer, or metallic sheen.
- Ribbons and Bows: Even a simple touch of ribbon or bow will boost up the look. Popping a rich red velvet bow or a shimmering gold ribbon on your gift may help set the yuletide mood.
- Personal Note: Adding a message written on paper conveying the reason why you selected the photo, or what it has to say to you also makes the gift more meaningful.
