The gift-giving season is fast approaching! If you’re looking for simple ways to create something personal and unique, choose personalised photo products that you can design yourself. Just add a few heartfelt words – Christmas wishes – and your gift gains real character. Here are some ideas for photo gifts along with matching short Christmas wishes.

A Little Trip Through Time – a Photo Book Full of Memories

Do you remember that family trip to the mountains? Or how the little one’s first steps put a smile on everyone’s face? You can capture all those moments in a personalised photo book. By adding humorous Christmas wishes, you give it a personal touch and turn it into something more than just a gift - it becomes a piece of your shared story, unique because it’s designed entirely by you.

Here are a few ideas for short Christmas wishes you can weave into your photo book:

• “May every day this Christmas be sweeter than gingerbread.”

• “Wherever you are, may the magic of Christmas wrap around you.”

• “Every memory is a gift that lasts for years.”

Prints – Small Moments, Big Emotions

When you hold a print in your hands, the feeling of the moment almost comes back to life. Want your photos to feel even more personal? Write New Year wishes on the back – handwritten ones will touch anyone’s heart.

Inspiration for your wishes:

• “May these Christmas holidays be full of warmth that stays in your heart all year long.”

• “May each day of the New Year be a step towards your dreams.”

• “May your home always be filled with as much joy as in these photos.”

Choose Memo Prints – Pocket-Sized Memories

Memo prints are a bit like time capsules – but in a stylish form. You can hang them on the wall or tuck them into an album, and in the online editor you can also add a date or a short caption. If you want to include longer New Year wishes, you can write them comfortably on the back. What’s more, the design of memo prints refers to the iconic Polaroid style - making them perfect as home décor.

Here are some ideas for funny or touching Christmas wishes:

• “May this Christmas be like your favourite socks – cosy and colourful.”

• “Christmas without gingerbread is like a photo without a smile – incomplete.”

• “May Santa bring you as much joy as there are lights twinkling on the tree this year.”
