- Use photos that you know the person doesn’t like. If there is a photo that you love but the person you are gifting the frame to doesn’t like those particular photos, then don’t use them. Even if everyone thinks they are good, if the recipient doesn’t like them, it will ruin the whole gift. Use their favorite photos.
- Forget about photo albums. Even though this is a digital age with a lot advanced technology, there is still a place for regular photo albums. People, especially kids, still love flipping through old photos and there are some beautiful albums available nowadays as well.
In this day and age of “the selfie” taking photos of things including yourselves has become commonplace. Beautiful photo frames arranged on a fireplace mantle or across a piano top is still a gorgeous sight.
