25 Best Personalized Gift Ideas To Choose From In 2022

Gifting A Loved One A Personalized Gift

Personalized gifts show more extraordinary thoughtfulness and love than just run-of-the-mill gifts. If you’re interested in gifting a loved one a personalized gift, you’ve come to the right place. In this blog post, we offer you 25 unique ideas that you can choose from. So, let’s get started.

1. Custom Family Portraits

Custom metal, bamboo, or acrylic photo gifts can make excellent, personalized gifts. Choose a family picture and get them printed directly onto the frames. You can choose between small or large prints and get various sizes of family portraits made.

2. Custom-made Puzzle

Personalized wooden puzzles are excellent gifts. You can take a much-loved photo, print it on a wood block, and get it cut into puzzle pieces. That way, when your loved one reconstructs the puzzle, they’ll be able to build the image (and the associated memory) piece by piece.

3. Acrylic Photo Magnets

Fridge magnets are such a great way of celebrating life’s best moments. You can get personalized acrylic photo magnets for your loved one. The best part is, you don’t have to choose just one photo and leave the rest. You can immortalize multiple memories by getting many magnets assigned. These personalized magnets can make great Christmas or New Year’s presents for the entire family.

4. Re-stickable Memorabilia

If you feel magnets are cliché, how about getting re-stickable acrylic photo blocks and acrylic block prints instead? You don’t even need to purchase the sticky tape. Just peel and stick and keep re-sticking it wherever you want. These can be unique portable gifts for your loved ones, which can be customized and personalized any way you want.

5. Name Printed Diaries

If there are people who love to plan or journal in your life, they’ll love diaries that have their names printed on them. You can even get their favorite quote printed on the front cover. Diaries can be customized well, with different cover textures & colors, page layout designs, and more.

6. Personalized Bracelets

Not just bracelets but any jewelry can be engraved with “I love you” quotes, the name of the wearer or the date of the wedding, or any other special event. The jewelry doesn’t always have to be metal either. You can also get the personalization done on leather (in watches, for example).

7. Engraved Wooden Bookmarks

If your loved one is a book lover, they’ll love engraved bookmarks. You can even get the bookmarks in different shapes. These days, you have manufacturers who engrave the bookmarks with Hogwarts House Seals or make the bookmark in the form of a tree.

8. Bookends (with name initials)

Bookends are another excellent option for people who love to read. You can choose bookends that are the initials of the first letters of the first and last names of the recipient. For example, if your loved one is “Mary Wyatt,” choose “M” and “W” alphabet bookends.

9. Personalized Book Stamps

Another reader-friendly gift is a personalized book stamp. You have brands that can make stamps such as, “This belongs to the library of…” and similar one-liners.

10. Printed Bedding

Throw rugs, pillowcases, bedsheets, and other types of bedding can be printed with the names or photos of the recipients. They make excellent personalized housewarming or wedding gifts. If choosing for kids, you can even get the bedding printed with their favorite cartoons.

11. Engraved Crockery and Cutlery

Serving bowls with the server’s name or knives engraved with the names of the people using them can be such a fun, personalized gift for an entire family. You can even get wall-hanging plate art printed with photos, quotes, or significant dates for the recipient.

12. Engraved Barware

If crockery and cutlery aren’t something your receiver would be interested in, perhaps you’ll impress them with customized barware. From champagne flutes to beer mugs to shot glasses, you can have any drink glasses printed with their first or family name. You can even get a hip flask with the recipient’s name and other barware essentials engraved with something personal. Engraved coasters and bottle openers are other excellent ideas.

13. Personalized Pet Tags

If your loved one is a pet parent, you can celebrate this excellent relationship with a cute pet name tag. You can get pet name tags printed with photos of the recipient with their fur baby and then gift this lovely item to them.

14. Small Prints Photo Glass Ornaments

Are you gifting a loved one for the holiday season? How about sending them glass ornaments that contain photo prints of memorable travel experiences? Or perhaps ornaments with photos taken of their newborn baby? What an excellent way to ring in the festivities, isn’t it?

15. Couples' Coffee Mugs

Coffee mugs with each partner's names, pictures, or favorite quotes can make for a great wedding or Valentine’s Day gift. You can even personalize the mugs with prints of their favorite shows and characters.

16. Engraved Stationery

Who doesn’t love stationery? And if it's personalized stationery with the names/initials of the user engraved, it becomes particularly irresistible. From engraved pens to name-printed notepads, the sky is the limit.

17. Tabletop or Wall-Mounted Acrylic Block Prints

Acrylic block prints are a beautiful way to decorate someone’s living room. You can have personalized acrylic block prints made with photos of special days or beloved pets who have moved on. These can be fitted to the wall at home or the office tabletop.

18. Name or Print Embroidered Clothing

Just imagine gifting someone a jacket, pair of socks, a hat with their name, favorite sports team number, or a slogan they love. That’s such a thoughtful and practical gift that they would be able to use every day.

19. Baby Hand or Foot Cast Sculpture

This is an excellent gift for new parents. You can get a small mold cast on their baby’s foot or hand. You only must provide a photo of the foot/handprint of the baby to the makers, and they’ll do the rest. If the baby is older, they can make a mold of the actual hand/foot by putting it in a soft temporary cast to get the dimensions.

20. Custom-made Candles

Aromatherapy is so cathartic. You can gift your loved one their customized candle as a birthday gift. Many new-age candle makers can create custom scents named after your loved ones if you let them know their favorite ingredients and colors. You can get crystals and herbs added to the candle and even get it engraved or shaped in a particular design too.

21. Monogrammed Family Name Welcome Mats

A monogrammed welcome mat that contains the family name can be a great housewarming present. Your loved ones can place the carpet at their door, telling the visitor they are at the right house.

22. Personalized Face Mask

Many people use face masks for myriad reasons. Wouldn’t it be amazing to have it printed with the new owner’s name or perhaps have them colored in their favorite color scheme or contain a line by their beloved Harry Potter character? We're sure your recipient will love using such a quirky face mask.

23. Carved Wooden Comb and Mirror Set

This is a precious gift to give anyone who takes their haircare and skincare seriously. You can have their name engraved on the comb and mirror, along with designs of their favorite flowers or the names of their kids, or anything they love.

24. Engraved Water Bottle

A personalized bottle with the user's name, date of birth, quote, etc., can be a wonderful gift. Your loved one can carry it to the gym, office, on hikes, or anywhere they go. The bottle isn’t at risk of getting lost since it can quickly be returned to the owner.

25. Initilaed Acrylic Photo Block Stands

Finally, you can consider gifting your loved one an acrylic photo block stand to hold their photos or pocket-sized artworks. The frame can be engraved with the date the images were taken to commemorate a special event. These can be fantastic wedding gifts or entirely personalized birthday gifts.
