More about personalised gifts for Son

A personalised gift works because it could only have come from you. Everything on this page starts with a photograph you already have, or a handful of words only you would think to write down, a saying, a year, the name everyone calls him.

Each idea on this page is a layout rather than a finished picture: you choose it, put your own photos and words into it, see exactly how it will look, and only then decide what to print it on.

If none of them is right, describe him in your own words instead. You do not need to know what you want, that is what the brief is for.

Gift Ideas for Son: FAQs

What are the best gift ideas for a son?

The best gift ideas for a son are a photo album of his childhood, a canvas print of a favourite photo, a photo blanket for his room or a photo calendar for his desk. Each gift for a son is made from your family photos and made to order in India by Printerpix, with your own message to him.

What is a good surprise gift for a son?

A good surprise gift for a son is a photo book of his life so far, from his first cricket bat to his school farewell, with a letter from his parents on the last page. It is a surprise gift he will keep and come back to.

What is a good birthday gift for a son?

A good birthday gift for a son is a canvas print of him with his friends or family, or a photo cushion of his best moments for his bed. Printerpix makes each birthday gift for a son to order in India, with a birthday message in your own words.

What can I give my son when he leaves home?

When a son moves out for college, a hostel or his first job, a photo cushion of home and family or a photo calendar of family birthdays and festivals keeps home close. Printerpix makes them in India from your photos, with a message from his parents or siblings.

Can I design a gift for my son on my phone?

A gift for a son can be designed on a computer or a phone: upload his photos, add your message and see a full preview before you order. The photo book, canvas print, photo blanket or photo cushion is then made to order in India.

How long does it take to arrive?

Made to order in 1 to 3 working days, then sent with tracking. Delivery options and costs for your address are shown at the checkout, before you pay.

What if I do not have good photos?

You need fewer than you think. Plenty of these take a single picture, and some take none at all, the ones built from names, dates and a few lines you write yourself.

Can I change my mind after I have started?

Yes. Nothing is printed until you have seen a preview and confirmed it, so you can change the photos, the words or the product itself up to that point.

What if it arrives and it is not right?

Tell us. Every order is covered by our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee: not right? We’ll reprint it or refund you.

Is it really made from my own photos?

Yes, that is the whole point. Your original photo is never altered; whatever you make is produced alongside it, so you keep both.
