Piktorize ~ We Remember Moments

We’re in the home stretch! Christmas is almost upon us and we will finish up our last minute express post orders tomorrow! What a crazy month we’ve had. Watch this space for the announcement of our new competition in the lead up to the New Year!

We’d like to take this opportunity to thank all of our fabulous customers, all over the world, for helping us grow these past few months. It’s been an amazing journey and we are looking forward to continuing that growth in 2009 and beyond.

On behalf of everyone at Piktorize, we wish all of you a safe and happy holiday season and a prosperous new year.

I was over at My New Shiny Shoes today and thanks to Kathie I read about a fantastic Digital Photography Guide. (How did I get the time?! I have no idea!!)

You’ll find all kinds of great tips in the guide - everything from help deciding on the right camera to purchase all the way through to wildlife photography tips! There are 28 pages packed with some great answers to common digital photography questions (and some not-so-common!) and the best part about it is - it’s free! If you get a spare moment, it’s definitely worth checking out. You can find it on The Press Hub or by clicking here. (Please note you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to view the file.)

We’ve been flat out lately wrapping and sending out all of our Christmas orders! It seems as though more and more customers are looking for unique and personalised gifts this season!

Be sure to check back in as Christmas approaches for the announcement of our new competition. Our Congratulations go to Cathie from NSW who was the winner of our November competition!

I was browsing the Poss Bloss online shop today and came about the most adorable cooking set for kids! I can’t wait until my little one is old enough to cook with Mum - and we won’t be without one of these from Poss Bloss! They would make a fabulous Christmas gift, and there’s plenty of time left to order from Jodie’s online store. The set even includes a handmade apron specially designed for children! The best part is it’s all for just $39.95 including postage (within Australia)!

Jodie keeps all of her customers up to date with the Poss Bloss blog, and recently showed off some of the stunning new fabrics you’ll soon be seeing in the Poss Bloss shop!

While we’re on the subject of children, why not have a look at our personalised Photo Satchel?! It makes a great book bag for the library, and your little one just love displaying their favourite photo right on the front!

Have you seen these cute little personalised treasures?!

For just $12.95 you can have your favourite photo printed on the tiny t-shirt of any one of these adorable personalised photo keyrings! With a choice of Elephant, Frog, Monkey, Mouse, Teddy and Tiger - you’re sure to find something for everyone - including yourself!
Check them out!

We have some great new products in store right now, but one of our favourites has to be our Personalised Photo Mobile Phone Charms! We have three different styles available - Super Star, Blue Stones and Black Hearts - and at just $19.95 each they make perfect stocking stuffers! They would make a great addition to any Christmas gift, and keep them in mind for birthdays & Mother’s Day too!

Below is a photo of a sand sculpture at a local shopping centre last Christmas. I am hoping they will be back again this year because they were truly amazing! (It’s not the best pic…but you get the idea!)

Okay - so you would have noticed that it’s been just over a week since our last post. Not like us I know! And we certainly appreciate your patience because there’s a good reason…

We have a new store!!

We’re so excited! Our old store was great but didn’t provide our customers with the kind of checkout that we ourselves expect when shopping online. Now - there’s no need to register and entering your details is completely secure. All payments are still processed via Paypal, and we are continuing to accept cheques, money orders and bank transfers! So, overall it’s just easier for you - and a whole lot prettier!

What are you waiting for - go and check it out!

Here’s the top 5 reasons we believe a personalised photo gift makes the perfect gift this Christmas!

1. It’s personal. Okay, so someone’s favourite perfume is still personal - but a gift with a photo shows that you’ve thought beyond the obvious.
   
2. It’s unique. It’s likely that your recipient will not have one already! So - there’ll be no worry about having to endure the long ‘returns’ lines on Boxing Day!
   
3. It’s a lasting keepsake. No matter what you choose - a photo engraved pendant, a bag featuring your favourite photo or even an ornament for the Christmas tree - your recipient will always remember that special moment everytime they look at your gift!
   
4. It’s always the right size! How many times have you thought you chose the right size only to have to return a gift because it was too big or too small?! A personalised gift is always the right size and you never need to worry about it suiting a person’s particular taste either!
   
5. It’s affordable. We have gifts that are sure to fit every budget, and back each of them with our 100% satisfaction guarantee. We’re not happy unless you are! It’s our job to ensure the products are fantastic so all you’re left to do is decide what you want!
   

Imagine the look on your recipient’s face when they open a gift featuring their favourite photo! For some perfect gifts this Christmas, check out our store.
Happy shopping!
