Homemade gifts are always hit. There are a million and one different ideas for what to make, but really, unless you started making them last March, do you really want the stress that goes into making a bunch of last minute holiday gifts?
There are several sites that have taken the stress out of it all by allowing you to just upload photos, create a calendar and VOILA! Instant gift giving! And don’t you even dare think that these are cheesy ideas. What family member WOULDN’T love receiving a calendar full of your smiling family?
Here are some of the good ones:
Big Huge Labs: great prices; order before December 14th for Christmas delivery.
Vista Prints: BIG variety of styles – from posters, to desk calendars to magnet calendars. They have 3-day rush shipping for any procrastinators.
Create Photo Calendars: they also offers fundraising calendars. $5 flat shipping fee.
Kodak: You know that the original photo paper people will have these. They offer volume ordering as well.
Shutterfly: lots of cute layouts; currently offering 20% discounts.
Snapfish: you receive 20 free prints when you start your account to create your calendars.
If you are feeling really brave and organized, create some at home on a word processing program, save to a flash drive and take them to Kinkos/Staples/OfficeMax etc for printing.
