A clear, close-up photo works best. Daylight beats flash.
Choosing the best photo
Your photo becomes a soft picture in light and shade that appears when the light is switched on. These simple tips help it glow at its best:
- Use the original photo from your phone or camera if you can. Photos saved from WhatsApp, Facebook or a screenshot are often made smaller and lose detail.
- Faces close up and filling the picture. We shape your photo to fit the frame, so keep the people or pets you love most near the middle.
- Soft, even light. Daylight works beautifully. Try to avoid strong shadows, harsh flash or a bright window behind.
- Sharp and in focus, rather than blurry or very grainy.
- A simple background lets your loved ones stand out. Busy backgrounds can look cluttered once it glows.
- One to four people or pets works best, so faces stay a good size.
- Colour isn't needed. The finished piece shows light and shade only, so older or black and white photos look lovely too. If your only copy is an old, faded or creased print, a clear photo of it taken in daylight is fine, and we'll always do our very best with it.
We look at every photo personally before we start. If we think it won't come out as well as you deserve, we'll get in touch gently and help you choose. Your photo is stored privately, seen only by us, and only ever used to make your gift. We never share it or use it for anything else.

More details+
Some faces belong on the tree every Christmas. This delicate bauble holds a photograph of someone you love, hidden within its surface until the light is switched on, when it softly reveals every detail. It's made as a 3D lithophane. Your photo is shaped into the bauble in finely varying thickness, so it appears as a gentle picture in light and shade when lit from within. Every bauble comes with two caps, and you receive both: - A cap with a warm white LED light built in, so it glows anywhere you place it - An open cap, so you can slip in a bulb from your own Christmas tree lights instead Both are shown in the videos. With its hanging loop, it's ready for the tree or a cosy spot on a shelf. A thoughtful gift for a first Christmas, for grandparents, for a much-loved pet, or in memory of someone dearly missed. You can choose a different photo for each bauble. Every bauble in your basket counts towards the bundle price: - 1 for £8.99 - 3 for £19.99 - 5 for £29.99 - 10 for £54.99 Upload your photo below. We look at every photo personally before we begin.

Your photo is stored privately, seen only by me, and only ever used to make your gift.

Looks even better lit up
Ordered this as a Christmas present and I'm really pleased with it. The photo is brilliant, and it looks even better when it's lit up. Such a lovely idea for a personalised gift and something a bit different. Really happy with how it's turned out and can't wait to give it at Christmas. Would definitely recommend.
