Review: Personalization Mall for Baby Photo Gifts
My parents have everything. They buy themselves what they need and most of what they want. It’s so hard to find the only gadget Dad’s toolbox lacks, or anything for Mom that doesn’t create clutter. I’ve found that the best present usually contains my son’s face in some form. For gifts bearing your baby’s image, enter your new best friend: Personalization Mall.
Available Features
If you can dream it up, they probably have it! Is Dad a golfer? Get the photo golf balls. Is Grandma a jigsaw puzzle fanatic? Get a puzzle featuring all the kids! Neckties, mouse pads, and mugs, oh my! The choices will leave you with a new dilemma: what to choose?
Don’t forget gifts for other people. My best friend’s birthday gift was an adorable canvas made from a close-up snapshot of her daughter. My husband gets a new coffee mug each Christmas with my favorite shots of him with our son. As a group gift for his great-grandmother, I’m thinking of an afghan of the whole family.
User Friendliness and Support features
Uploading your photos is a smooth process with easy cropping, preview, and editing tools. You can choose sepia or black and white for your photo. You can also use the editing tool to rotate, remove red-eye, or sharpen the shot.
While the frequently asked questions section offers tips for common inquiries, customer service is an e-mail away, with reply guaranteed in 24 hours. Of course, if you prefer to telephone, you may do so during business hours of 8-5 CST.
Processing and Shipping
Processing generally takes 1-2 business days, after which your item ships. I have purchased multiple gifts in the past two years and have always received my items promptly as promised.
As for shipping times, Personalization Mall offers standard shipping to the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. UPS 2nd day air, Express Next Day, and Express Saturday are available to the contiguous United States only. See site for rates.
The prices for personalized photo items of the quality offered is unmatched. For the purpose of this piece, I found 15 fabulous gifts for under $25 (see list below).
If a problem occurs, Personalization Mall has a very generous policy. If the mistake is theirs, they will replace the item or refund the purchase price immediately. If the mistake is made by the customer, a 30% discount is offered for replacement.
For gift-giving occasions for everyone, check out Personalization Mall.
You can’t go wrong with your baby’s mug on a mug! Happy hunting.

Hi there
I just wanted to say I loved your blog. I am writing to you from SimplyGifts, an online gift company based in Sydney, Australia. Our site provides a wide variety of baby gifts and gifts for toddlers including our “All About Baby” journal, which I thought you might like.
I was just wondering how my company could get a link within the “Featured Sites” section on your blog. I would really appreciate if you can let me know how I can get listed within this section.
Thanks so much and I look forward to hearing from you
Regards
