The short answerFor a family spread across several countries, pick the same item for every household (a mug, a calendar, a frame or postcards) with the same family photo, and place one order per address. Shipping is included wherever we deliver. Printing happens when you order: 5 to 10 working days in the UK, Europe and the US, up to 15 elsewhere. No arrival date is guaranteed, so order well ahead.

The idea: the same thing in every home

The point of a shared gift is that it creates a shared moment, even from afar. On the evening everyone opens their package, everybody has the same mug or the same calendar in front of them, and the video call feels different. The simplest setup is to name one organizer: they pick the item, collect the addresses and place the orders.

Which photos to choose

One photo of everyone together, even an old one: the last family meal, a vacation, a wedding. It is the safe choice and works on every item.
One collage per household from the three or four photos each branch sends: ideal for the calendar, where each month can tell the story of one part of the family.
One photo per generation: the grandchildren for the grandparents, the grandparents when young for the grandchildren. It lands every time.

The most common trap is a screenshot from a video call, or an image received through a messaging app. They are often shrunk and look blurry once printed. Ask instead for the original file, as an attachment or a share link, and run the sharpness test before ordering. The studio's free sharpening button can help, but it cannot work miracles on a tiny image.

Which item for whom

The mug, $23.00: the easiest choice, for everyone including the kids. The family photo at breakfast.
The A4 calendar, : twelve photos, one per month, with everyone's birthdays. It stays in view all year.
The 30 x 40 cm photo frame, $75.00 or the framed A4 poster, $55.00: for parents and grandparents, a photo of everyone to hang on the wall.
The set of ten A6 postcards, $26.00: a card with the family photo for each cousin, to write on and send back.
The tote bag, $35.00: handy for young adults, and light if someone has to carry it in a suitcase.

The mathsThe same mug for four households: $92.00. The same A4 calendar for four households: $0.00. Shipping included to each of the four addresses, with one order per address.

Timing: plan well ahead

Each item is printed to order near the delivery address. Allow 5 to 10 working days in the UK, Europe and the US and up to 15 elsewhere. We do not promise an arrival date: transit depends on the country and the season, and the end of the year is busy everywhere. Our advice: order as early as you can, and leave even more margin for addresses outside Europe, keeping in mind the date on which your family gets together, which is not the same everywhere.

One order goes to one address, so place one order per address, using the recipient's address. If you have a doubt about a far-off country, ask us before ordering. For year-end timing, see also when to order a personalized Christmas gift.
