All year long there are gift giving occasions, big and small. There are major holidays and minor celebrations. There are anniversaries, weddings, baby showers and birthdays. There are even times when you need a special gift that says ‘I am sorry’. No matter what the occasion is and no matter who the gift is meant for, the gift that will be treasured always is the photo to text gift that you create yourself.
How to make a word art gift
How do you make a word art gift? It is simple. The online process will take you through it step by step as you create your order. Basically you choose a photo to upload as your first step. Then you choose the size that you want the finished gift to be. There are many to choose from and you can choose to take it a step further by ordering custom frames and other finishing touches. You may also choose to leave it unframed if you have something already in mind.
Next, you choose the various words that you want to use in your gift. You can pick words that describe the photo itself or tell the story behind that picture. It could be the description of the day. For example, you have a photo of a baby you are making a word art gift out of. This gift will be given to the baby’s grandmother for her birthday. The words you choose could include the baby’s name, birth date, time of birth, weight and length. You might include the parents’ names as well and other words like nicknames or your hopes and dreams for your child.
From there, the words that you have selected will be added to the photo in such a way that they actually recreate it. The pixels become words. From far away it will look just like any other photo but get closer and you can see the individual words and phrases. People will be unable to even look away once they see it. There will be people asking how it was done and many will be asking for the name of the website so that they can make their own photo to text gift for the loved ones in their lives.
Choose these special gifts
These are the kind of gifts that people enjoy getting because they are unique, do not take up a ton of space and can be placed in nearly any room in the house. They do not wilt like flowers and do not take up a bunch of space like knick-knacks. They aren’t going to make you sick like candies and they won’t go bad like fresh fruits. And unlike fruit cakes, it is unlikely that these special gifts will be regifted and circulated to everyone in the family throughout the year.
A very lovely lady shared that she used these as gifts for her mother. Her mother had dementia and was living in an assisted living facility. These pictures were not only great for keeping her connected to the world that she was slowly forgetting, the words helped staff and other visitors to give her prompts for who she was seeing.
Sometimes she can read the words on her own and sometimes she cannot. But, the pictures are always dear to her, even when she cannot remember the person that is in them. The lady rotates the pictures and creates new ones all of the time, taking the old ones home to display in her own home or to give to other family members. It is these kind of beautiful ideas that are so simple but so beautiful and it makes you realize how easily you can make your own special moments for the people in your own life.
Choose photos of the people that you love
No matter what the occasion is or who you are creating the gift for, a special photo can be a spectacular choice. Even small children like to have photos of the people that they love. It is a great idea to give children a photo of their distant relatives so that they have an idea of who people are in their family especially if they will be meeting them in person at some point. The person will not be such a stranger if they have a photo of them in their room. The picture will be a comforting and easy way for them to get familiar with a face.
Making a photo to text gift is simple- so simple it will only take a few minutes of your time but the appreciation that you get will be long lasting. You will find that people talk about this word art gift for many, many months after the fact. You might even make other family members angry that they did not get one of their own!
