If you’ve ever found yourself stumped while choosing a gift for a special occasion, you wouldn’t be alone. Every year, new events come up in our lives that are momentous enough to memorialize with a gift, but gift ideas are often few and far between. Thankfully, there are some incredibly creative gifts that can be made with custom 3D photo crystals. You can bet that even the family member or friend who seems to have anything will be wowed by the gift ideas we’ll explore here.
1. The Wedding Photo Crystal
Wedding photos are already emotionally powerful and capable of conveying incredible sentiment; however, when you have photos laser-etched onto 3D photo crystals, they take on a whole new aesthetic quality. Crystals have a timeless air to them that can truly enshrine memories of the couple’s special day in a way no other display can. The incredible detail that photo crystals show can be breathtaking in its own right, but, when combined with a wedding photo, the crystals take on a poignancy unlike anything else.
2. The Dog Day Photo Crystal
Our pets are cherished family members, and the day we bring them into our lives is a warm memory that should never be forgotten. If a friend or family member is celebrating the adoption day of their furry friend, why not consider 3D photo crystals as a gift. A photograph portrait of their dog can become an incredible, cherished treasure when etched into crystal. The almost invisible individual laser lines within the crystal give portraits of pets an incredible, lifelike quality that has to be seen to be believed.
3. The Best Party Ever Crystal
We’ve all been to that one party – maybe a baby shower, maybe a bachelorette party, maybe even a birthday party – that was so good that you just never wanted to forget it. With a photo crystal, you don’t have to. You can get a rectangular crystal with the group photo from that party of a lifetime, capturing the memories you shared with your best friends forever, suspended in eternal crystal.
4. The Accolade Crystal
There are moments in our lives that simply require commemoration. If a loved one or a close friend has had one of these moments, you can commemorate it with a photo and message, etched in clear, prismatic crystal. Imagine graduation photos immortalized for display on the mantelpiece. “Iceberg” style crystals make for incredible panoramas, meaning that you can capture the moment your child hit the winning home run or the moment your dad finally got that truck he always wanted. Whatever the moment, catching it in crystal is a priceless keepsake that will ensure the memory is cherished all around.
