Who didn’t love receiving a personalized gift as a child? There was something exciting about receiving a gift with your name engraved or painted on it. If you’ve ever needed to surprise a recipient with a gift, a personalized item was a sure win.
Adult gift givers can relive the fun of those childhood memories by giving personalized gifts. Today’s shoppers have many customization options ranging from “off-the-shelf” items to hand-painted or even custom-engraved gifts. Online shopping supports all of these gift options and more with personal design tools to make gift giving even more fun and meaningful. Now it’s possible to create the perfect holiday gift from the comfort of your own home. Better yet, you’ll be able to preview the design, something you’d never be able to do with phone orders.
Design your own is perfect for unique names
If you’re one of those people with a unique name, you know how hard it is to find personalized items on the shelf. If you know a child with a hard-to-find name, you know how disappointing it is for him to never find anything with his name on it. Design your own options to eliminate this frustration and allow you to put a smile on the faces of these children who are proud of their unique names.
A personalized toy box is fun and functional
A gift that will be welcomed by children and parents alike is a personalized toy box. Kids will love having their own place for all of their treasures, which is made even more special because their name is displayed front and center. Parents will appreciate having a functional and attractive storage place for the endless pile of toys that children seem to accumulate.
Personalized toy boxes come in all shapes and sizes, from 100% handcrafted and laser-engraved heirloom pieces to fiberboard boxes made with painted or acrylic letters. Some toy boxes are big enough to double as a bench or coffee table, others are small enough to store in the corner of a bedroom or playroom.
A good toy box design tool will give you several options to choose from when designing your toy box, such as wood color, name versus monogram, and font choice. Before you make your final purchase, you should be able to see a mockup of your design to verify that everything is spelled correctly and designed the way you want. With a quick glance, you’ll be able to tell if it fits the personality of your recipient. If not, just play around with your options a bit more until it’s perfect.
This preview feature takes the guesswork out of personalized gifts. No more waiting around with pins and needles, hoping the end product will look just the way you want. You’ll know exactly what to expect before you even click the buy button.
Selecting the perfect gift for the holidays
If you’re convinced that a personalized toy box should be on your shopping list this year, make sure it’s a quality piece. Quality parts last longer and look better than cheap boxes. If you’re a discerning shopper, you can find boxes made from real wood that will last for decades or even generations. What holds toys today can be used to store bedding, china, games, or keepsakes for years to come.
The right choice means today’s gift can become tomorrow’s heirloom.
