Quick picks

  • Best overall: a portrait of her grandchild as a princess, knight or dragon rider
  • For several grandkids: a two-person design with siblings or cousins together
  • Most sentimental: grandma and grandchild together in one portrait
  • Most festive: a Christmas-themed portrait (Little Santa, Little Mrs. Claus)
  • For the newest grandbaby: a baby portrait for their first Christmas
  • Coziest: a soft sherpa blanket with the grandchild's portrait or name

1. A portrait where her grandchild is the hero

Take one everyday phone photo of your child and turn it into a 3D cartoon-style portrait where they are the star of their own story. It works for a princess under the moonlight, a brave dragon rider, an astronaut or a little superhero. Kids grow up fast, and this freezes a moment grandma will look at every day.

The Dragon Rider: for the grandson who roars at everything.

2. All the grandkids together

Two siblings or cousins, one adventure. Two-person designs put both grandchildren in the same scene. Upload one photo of each child, and grandma no longer has to choose which picture goes on the mantel.

3. Grandma and grandchild in one portrait

Our parent-and-child designs work beautifully for grandma and her grandchild. Upload a photo of each of them and they appear side by side in a storybook scene, like a winter court made for two.

Turn the tables: the grandkids gift grandma a royal portrait of herself. It's funny, flattering and guaranteed to start a conversation at Christmas dinner. There's one for grandpa too.

FAQ

What's a good Christmas gift for grandma from the grandkids?

Something personal that features the grandchildren: a custom portrait, a photo blanket or a keepsake with their names. A portrait where her grandchild appears as a storybook hero is unique, made just for her, and stays on the wall for years.

Do I need a professional photo?

No. A clear phone photo where the face is visible works well. See the photo tips above.

When should I order to get it before Christmas?

By December 9 for the United States and by December 4 for the UK, EU, Canada and Australia. Orders take 5–10 business days in total.

Can I change the portrait?

Yes. Revisions are free and unlimited before printing. After you order, you have 24 hours to request changes before production starts.
