Just back from a fabulous few days away? Or maybe you recently found yourself going through some old photos on your phone and reminiscing about a wonderful holiday you had a few years ago? Having visual reminders around us to remember good times and keep those happy memories alive.
A really smart way to stay connected to those special moments is to make the most of online printing. Online printing provides and affordable and convenient opportunity to use your own digital photos and images to create your own souvenirs and gifts and have then delivered to your doorstep. Let’s take a look at some of the best options for online printing souvenir and gift ideas.
Fridge Magnets
Having a handful of small magnets featuring smiling faces at an amusement park, your family posing on the beach at sunset, a goofy moment of you caught off guard brings a bit of joy to the kitchen and nice “oh yeah” moments whenever you open your refrigerator door (which, if you’re like me, is often!).
T-Shirts, Hoodies, Hats, and More
Wear what you love with customised T-shirts or other apparel showing off your favourite photos from your travels. If you tend to travel with a group of friends or family maybe you could create your own travel buddy logo to don on a cap or polo shirt. If loads of likeminded folks are convening somewhere for a big occasion (wedding, family reunion, birthday party, convention) a commemorative hoodie would be a lovely memento for all who experienced the event.
Stickers
Small (or large!) stickers of your photos are another example of inexpensive items that help you maintain your happy holiday memories. Obviously you can stick them wherever you like – mirrors, windows, your diary or journal, laptop, mobile, dashboard of your car, inside drawer of your desk …
Cards
Christmas cards, thank you notes, personalised birthday cards, bespoke postcards, unique business cards: all sorts of cards and notes that have your digital images on them add personality and character to what might otherwise be bland and impersonal exchanges.
Canvas Prints
Canvas prints of your photos are perfect for filling that empty wall with some artwork and give you something to talk about when you have guests. You also can print images on canvas bags to take the memories with you anywhere you go.
So Much More
There are so many more novel ideas for printing souvenirs and gifts. You could make your own wine or beer labels … or design a set of mugs, cups or glassware … or print some drink coasters for your home bar or coffee table … or order printed candles, gift and storage boxes, notebooks, umbrellas, lighters, balloons, pens, notebooks … etc!
And of course, there’s always the option of printing out actual photographs to store in scrapbooks and albums, or frame for placing on desktops, walls and anywhere else you feel could do with a bit of colour.
How do you keep the memories fresh from important moments and adventures in your life? Have you ever used online printing to make souvenirs or gifts?
