Personalized Stocking Stuffers in Canada: Small Photo Gifts Under CA$25
· CaptivMart
Good personalized stocking stuffers are small, sturdy and carry a photo the person loves. Our picks under CA$25: a photo keychain, a fridge magnet, a metal bookmark, a round ornament with the year, a photo dog tag and a 7×4 mini plate. Each is made from one photo, proofed first and shipped from Canada.
What are the best personalized stocking stuffers?
Small metal photo gifts that fit in a stocking and get used all year. A photo keychain (CA$16), a single photo fridge magnet (CA$14) and a metal photo bookmark (CA$14) are the most flexible, because they suit kids, parents, grandparents and coworkers alike. Each one carries a photo and a short line of text, and the gloss metal face wipes clean. Because they are metal, they survive being stuffed into a stocking toe next to oranges and chocolate.
What stocking stuffer works for a pet lover?
A photo dog tag (CA$19) with the pet's face and name on the front and a phone number on the back. It is useful from the first day and fits easily in a stocking. A round photo ornament (CA$19) with the pet's name and the year is another favourite, and many families hang one for each pet. For cat homes, the ornament is the better fit, since many cats do not wear tags.
What stocking stuffer suits a car lover?
A 7×4 mini plate (CA$22) with a nickname of up to 10 characters, such as TURBO, and an optional photo of the car. It suits a toolbox, a desk, a bike or a bedroom door. A photo keychain with a picture of his or her car is the other easy win, since it ends up on the actual car keys.
What is a good stocking stuffer for grandparents?
A photo fridge magnet of the grandkids. Grandparents see the fridge many times a day, and a metal magnet will not curl or fade like a paper print. If you want to give more than one, the set of four (CA$44) lets you put one grandchild on each magnet. A photo bookmark is a sweet extra for a grandparent who reads.
How do I keep stocking stuffers personal without overspending?
Use one good photo across several small items. The same family or pet photo can go on a keychain, a magnet and an ornament, so each person gets something personal without designing everything from scratch. If you also want a main gift, a bundle of a jute tote, a metal photo panel and a keepsake from the same photo saves 15%. Remember that shipping is charged per order (CA$15 to CA$50 depending on size and weight), so ordering several stuffers together is usually better value than ordering them one at a time.
When should I order personalized stocking stuffers for Christmas?
Send your pre-order request by early December, and in November if the gift is going to the USA. We reply within 48 hours with a proof and a delivery date. Small items like keychains, magnets, ornaments, bookmarks and dog tags take 2 to 4 business days to make after you approve the proof. Delivery then takes 2 to 7 business days in Canada or 5 to 10 business days to the USA. Approving your proof quickly is the easiest way to save time.
What photo works best for a small item?
A close-up. On a keychain or tag that is about 1.5 inches wide, a full-body shot of a person or pet becomes tiny, so crop to the face. Choose a sharp, well-lit photo at least 1500 pixels on the long side. Keep text short: a name, a nickname or a year reads better on a small piece than a full sentence.
What is a good stocking stuffer for a teenager?
A photo keychain with a picture of their friends, their pet or their first car, or a 7×4 mini plate with a nickname for a bedroom door. Teens tend to like gifts that feel like theirs rather than gifts that look like a family photo, so let them pick the photo if you can keep the surprise. A car window sign with a fun message is another option for a new driver.
What is a good stocking stuffer for coworkers or teachers?
A metal photo bookmark or a fridge magnet with a class photo, a team photo or a simple name. Both cost CA$14, both are flat and easy to post, and neither takes up desk space. For a teacher, a class photo on a magnet is a small, personal thank-you that suits the end of term. Check with the school or workplace about sharing group photos before you order.
Are metal stocking stuffers safe for kids?
They are thin, light metal pieces with a gloss photo face, much like a keychain or bookmark you would buy in a store. As with any small item, the keychain ring and dog tag split ring are not toys for very young children, so give those to older kids and adults. The ornament and magnet are good choices for a family stocking.
Where are CaptivMart stocking stuffers made?
Every piece is personalized, finished by hand and shipped from Canada. The metal items carry a photo infused into a gloss aluminum coating with heat, rather than printed on top, so the image will not peel or scratch off easily. Our jute is handwoven in Bangladesh and finished here. Because each item is made to order after you approve a proof, nothing sits in a warehouse, and every stocking stuffer carries the exact photo and text you chose. US orders ship from Canada, and any duties or taxes that apply are confirmed before you pay.
