Does your mom still save the macaroni art you made for her in fourth grade? That\u2019s because even a simple custom gift can have a huge impact. Thankfully, it could not be simpler to use one of our Easy Creator apps<\/a> to design your own personalized pieces. Use the Ornament Creator<\/a> to make a holiday heirloom, the adorable Cookie Caster<\/a> to design cookie cutters for loved ones who love to bake, or Crayon Creatures<\/a> to magically bring your kids\u2019 2D art to life.<\/p>\n

If you don\u2019t want to make an entire custom object, you can use the Customizable option in our SHOP section, or marketplace<\/a>. Here, you\u2019ll find products that allow you to add your own messages to pieces already for sale. You can find customizable products by clicking the \u201cCustomizable\u201d box on the left-hand side of any page in our marketplace<\/a>. Underneath the box, you can also select the type of material you would like to customize.<\/p>\n

Sometimes, the best gifts are the ones that help preserve a precious photo memory. Your mom\u2019s favorite snapshot of you. Or the double selfie from that amazing day you spent at the ball game with your dad. What if you could turn these images into durable 3D mementos? Luckily, one of the most amazing things that you can do with Shapeways \u2014 that you cannot do anywhere else \u2014 is to create Celadon Selfies<\/a>. In this store, you can select any number of lovely tiles, mugs, or ornaments to which you can apply your own image (or one of your sister, mom, dad, or pets!).<\/p>\n
