Our June theme was pets and animals and the winner is a lovely picture of a child kissing a puppy.

Thanks to everyone who took part, our congratulations to the winners and don't forget, you could win a deluxe photo panel when placing any order during July on our competition theme of weddings and anniversaries.

Good luck.

I know it's a little later than 'advertised' but we've just announced the winner of July's photo gift competition (which was themed on weddings).

Thank you to everyone who took part. Judging was a real task this time.

Don't forget you can still enter August's photo gift competition which is themed on 'Holidays'.

Well the months are flying by aren't they? as we prepare to announce Augusts photo competition winner over at http://www.fabulousphotogifts.co.uk where the theme was 'holidays'.

Septembers photo gift competition is themed on 'Back to School'. Any orders placed during September 2008 where the uploaded / submitted photograph, in our opinion, is themed on back to school, will automatically be entered.

The winner will receive a small deluxe photo easel personalised with their winning photo in addition to their order.

Good luck everybody who enters. Don't forget this is a great opportunity to get a little something extra for yourself or get an early Christmas present in.

Jonathan.

Have you thought of doing something like this

http://www.fancyjewels.com/product.php?id=photo_rings

It's a photo ring. I was thinking about whether or not these had been invented and your thread here prompted me to Google them. If they were water proof I 'd love rings with my kids pics on them.

Now that is different!

Pity it's not waterproof.

We do always look for new photo gift ideas that we can print using our existing print technology. SOmetimes though, the cost of the materials means that by the time we've printed and packed it, it's too expensive to consider putting on the website and expect people to pay that amount.

So its a fine line between value for money and offering what our customers want at what we consider to be a reasonable cost.

Some gift ideas take months of research to get right. Our New Photo Cushions are one such example. The problem was the filling. Finally we found a small fabric shop (quite nearby actually - isn't that always the way) that hand makes cushion fillings to order by hand. We discussed the fluffy versus over-stuffed issue and now she makes both for us as and when we get a order.

So it was worth the wait and we're actually promoting another local small business in the process. How great is that?

I know it's late but we've just posted announcing Augusts Photo Gift competition winners which was themed around holidays.

The winning picture was a lovely family group with a stunning backdrop of mountains and water.

A copy of the picture is over on our own 'TV Channel' at Fabulous Photo Gifts -

We'll be announcing Septembers Competition winner which was themed around 'Back to School' later this week.

(hopefully).

Hi

Could i just add we've just launched another new photo gift idea - personalised coaster jigsaws.

A 4 piece jigsaw that makes a drinks coaster so you can keep your guests amused whilst you're pouring a cuppa (or something a little stronger).

Its 4 sided and each piece has a corner so it shouldn't be too difficult to complete!

You can see it here - http://www.fabulousphotogifts.co.uk/index.php?ref=coaster_jigsaw

Hi everyone - thought i'd just leave a copy of the reply we had from one of our photo of the month competition winners.....

"Hi there Mandy,

Just thought I would thank you for the prize I seem to have won for having
the "Photo of the Month", after ordering a jigsaw. That particular jigsaw
gift was very well received, and I am currently looking for suitable
pictures for a Christmas order for another (quite jealous) relative!

Whilst I'm now sure the choice of "Photo of the Month" must be fairly
random, it is very much appreciated :o)

The easel looks fabulous, and if the aim of the prize was purely a marketing
one, I think it worked. Expect an order for some more of those in future
too.....

Very best regards

Dave"

We'll be back with more great photo gift winning opportunities in the New Year as we're busy with Early Christmas orders for now.
