Pixel-perfect photo gifts- Handbags


Every once in awhile we all come across the perfect present for someone. It's the present you just can't wait to give them; the one you anticipate throughout the gift-giving ritual and the one that they talk about for weeks afterwards. Photo bags are one such present- the perfect gift for anyone obsessed with something you can catch on film. There are a number of ways to do this, and price ranges to match. Here are a few ideas to get you started:

- Grandma: An image of her grandchildren- a great conversation opener and a way to keep the kids with her always.
- Mom: An image of her children- a way to remember how happy her children can be, even as they're throwing tantrums on the floor beside her!
- The newlyweds: An image from their wedding- a way to literally carry their memories
- Dog-lovers: Boomer's face on their bag to carry in all those "dog free" zones.

The how is dependent almost exclusively on your budget. There are websites which will print the image directly on satin and stitch it into a bag (the most beautiful-- also the most expensive), as well as bags with plastic sleeves you can slide images in and out of (the most versatile) for the gift that keeps up with the times.

Regardless of how you do it, remember that there aren't many ways that allow you to- literally- carry your fondest memories with you.
