Holiday Gift Guide | Customize Your Christmas

In this first of several Chaos Is Bliss Holiday Gift Guides I’m introducing this year, you’ll find so many cute ways you can customize your Christmas with personal gifts for everyone on your list!

Our featured sponsor of the Customize Your Christmas holiday gift guide is Zazzle!

Zazzle

You may remember earlier in the summer I shared some custom-printed photo coffee mugs I ordered from Zazzle. That was my first introduction to this marketplace for one-of-a-kind finds. Zazzle works with designers all over the world, and when ordered, each product is made on demand, typically within 24 hours!

Zazzle is one of those sites that you ponder: Something for myself, or something for a gift? Here are a couple of favorites I found, for both…

For yourself: If you’re looking to add a special style to your home for Christmas, you must see Zazzle’s beautiful creations for the home! Throw blankets, pillows, tree skirts and stockings; Zazzle’s artists comes up with truly unique, sometimes whimsical designs. I love the classic look of this Mint and Festive Tree Skirt (above), which can be customized with your family name and monogram.

For others: You won’t even believe the selection of gifts under $20 that you can personalize with names & photos. For a little more (these are priced at $32.95), you can gift a beautiful monogrammed or holiday-themed pillow.

UPDATE: Use Zazzle coupon code ZWEEKOFDEALS to save up to 60% on all kinds of fun Zazzle creations!

While some higher value Zazzle coupon codes come and go quickly, these you can use up to 12/31/14:

• Save 15% on coasters with SAVEURTABLES
• Save 15% on calendars with CALENDAR2015
• Save 15% on business cards with PROFESSIONAL

Shop Zazzle for gifts for your family, friends … and yourself!

Shutterfly

You know all those adorable Fall family photos that you painstakingly arranged the kids for, all dressed up in their Sunday best, threatening/bribing for just the right shot?

Have those perfect (or let’s face it, imperfect) memories preserved in a gorgeous photo book from Shutterfly. The process is simple, you have a multitude of themes and designs to choose from, and check for the most recent Shutterfly coupon codes to help you save on your Shutterfly order.

Easy Canvas

Canvas photo prints make a beautiful gift! Easy Canvas Prints now offers the option of creating canvases from your Instagram photos!  Save 55% and get FREE shipping through 12/21, and read this earlier post for an exclusive coupon code good through 12/31/14.  Psst … when you submit your email address you’ll get a higher code!

Lillian Vernon

A favorite site to turn to for personalized gifts is Lillian Vernon. What started as a catalog company (in 1951!) now has a huge online presence, multiple brands (like Lillian Kids) and free personalization on all items that are able to be personalized!

Plus when you join their Smart Buy Savings Club you’ll save 10% off every order as long as you’re a member.

Snapily

Ok, these are seriously too cute: Animated and 3D photo bookmarks from Snapily. I took this quick photo of the Snapily bookmarks I had made earlier this summer. With just a flick of the wrist your two photo images seem to animate.

Shop Snapily for 3D or animated photo bookmarks, ornaments, photo cards and more.
