Photo-Inspired Valentine's Gifts for Mom

Move over chocolates and roses. No mom can resist a custom Valentine's gift featuring pictures of her children. Present your mom, sister, grandmother or aunt with an uncommon Valentine's Day surprise featuring photographs of her smiling children and happy family.

Photo Jewelry for Valentine's Day
Select a group of five or six favorite snapshots to have made into a one-of-a-kind photo charm bracelet for mom on Valentine's Day. For a new mom, making a bracelet featuring the newborn's first snapshots becomes a cherished keepsake. For a grandmother, feature one image of each of her grandchildren as a Valentine's Day surprise. If your family recently enjoyed a family vacation, select favorite snapshots of the children, whole family and parents alone to display on a charm bracelet for a lucky mom.

Custom Silk Scarf for Mom
Since every mom loves to brag about her family, let her do it in style. Have mom's favorite family portrait screen printed onto a silk scarf for Valentine's Day. Whether she wears the scarf around her neck, as a fashionable belt or decoratively ties it to her purse, this Valentine's gift will generate conversations.

Photo-Clad Valentine's Purse
Every lady enjoys receiving a new purse -- even mom. Whether you choose a cute clutch, a hobo purse or an oversized day bag, have a photo lab customize the purse with a photo mom loves for Valentine's Day. Get ahold of her most admired family portrait or a snapshot of the kids acting goofy and have it printed on a custom purse. If mom is a photo fanatic, consider a bag with photo pockets so she can change the photos seasonally.

Photo Throw Blanket
Imagine a larger than life-size replica of mom's favorite picture on a blanket. Dig up one of mom's favorite poses and have it printed on a woven throw blanket for Valentine's Day. The lap-size blanket is perfect for her to cuddle on chilly winter evenings or to decorate a tall-back chair in her home.

For Moms Who Love the Kitchen
If the mother you plan to spoil loves to bake, have a cake pan customized for her Valentine's Day gift. Photographs printed on a cake pan cover will let everyone know at a quick glance who brought that fabulous dish to the potluck. Other easily customizable kitchen goodies include cutting boards, cookie jars and refrigerator magnets.

Make mom swoon with delight this Valentine's Day. Using pictures of her children, family and favorite people on her Valentine's Day gift will make the holiday one to remember.
