The short answerFor a personalised thank-you gift, pick a photo that recalls the favour (the cat they minded, the house move, the party) and add the thank-you theme (« Merci ! » in the studio). The mug costs $23.00 with shipping included, the set of 10 postcards $26.00, which is $2.60 a card. To thank ten people, ten mugs come to $207.00 after the 10% discount.

Ideas, depending on who you are thanking

The right thank-you depends on the relationship. Here is what works for each.

The neighbour who fed the cat or watered the plants: a mug with a photo of the cat, $23.00. They will think of you with every coffee.
The colleague who got you out of a tight spot: a mug for their desk, with a team photo or a line only the two of you understand.
The staff on a hospital ward or in a care team: a tote bag or a frame with a message from the whole family. Check first what the team is allowed to accept.
The teacher: a 30×40 frame, $75.00, with a drawing by the class or a word from each child. See how to print a child's drawing.
Hosts who put you up: postcards with photos from your stay, $26.00 for 10, to leave around the house or post afterwards.

Which photo and what words to say thank you

The photo should tell the story of what the person did for you, not just show them.

The favour itself: the cat asleep on their sofa while you were on holiday, the boxes from the move, the cake they brought round.
A moment you shared: a photo taken while staying with your hosts, the end-of-project drinks with your colleague.
No photo to hand? The thank-you theme dresses up an item even with a simple photo of flowers or a landscape.

For the words, the studio's text ideas for each occasion give you a starting point. Keep it short and specific: "Thanks for feeding Mittens, summer 2026" says more than a generic "Thanks for everything".

Working out the cost when you are thanking several people

The mathsA mug costs $23.00 with shipping included. A mug plus the set of 10 postcards: $49.00. Ten mugs in the same basket: $230.00 less 10%, so $207.00, or $20.70 each. For a class, a 30×40 frame at $75.00 shared between ten families comes to $7.50 each; a tote bag at $35.00 between five families, $7.00.

The 10% discount applies automatically from 10 items in the same basket, mixed products included, but frames do not count. To thank a whole team, see also leaving gifts for a colleague.

Mistakes to avoid

Using photos of children without permission: for a teacher's gift with a class photo, ask the other parents first.
Giving clothing instead of a mug without knowing the size: the clothes come in adult sizes from S to 2XL, not children's sizes, and you rarely know your neighbour's exact size.
Writing an essay: on a mug, five words are readable, five lines are not. Save the long message for a card.
Leaving it too long: printing and delivery take 5 to 10 working days in the UK, Europe and the US, up to 15 elsewhere. You can have it delivered straight to the person, shipping included.

Prices include shipping, no minimum order. Printed one by one to order near the delivery address, delivered in 5 to 10 working days in the UK, Europe and the US, up to 15 elsewhere.
