More photo ideas

There are many more imaginative ideas for using your photographs - old and new. As you'll have gathered, I am a big fan of blurb.com, and use them for all my books; but there are many other companies who will take your images and create them into unique and beautiful gifts, for others or for yourself.

As with the books, you may well wish to create these gifts for yourself, if you're comfortable with the processes required on the computer. However, if you're not that confident with the march of technology, or simply don't have the time or inclination to do so, I'm very happy to take care of this for you. My charges, as explained here, will be £25 per hour for my time, plus the costs of the merchandise as they are charged to me.

(Alternatively, you might want some help with using your computer - on the "teach a man to fish" principle. If this is the case, click here for more information about the IT training that I provide.)

Here are some of my favourites. (All links open in a new window.)

moo

moo is a UK-based company that produces wonderful cards and stickers. Greetings cards, postcards and business cards are familiar in format, but they also create the fabulous minicards - a neat size, just large enough for images to have impact, but small enough to be cute! Better still, you can also buy their unique Mosaic Frame, which holds 20 minicards in your choice of arrangement.

moonpig

You've probably seen the advertisements: moonpig provides a wonderful way of creating unique greetings cards from their images or yours.

photobox and snapfish

Two companies providing photo gifts of all kinds; I particularly like their calendars, photo notebooks and posters.
