Want a really unique photo gift idea? Try this one! A retractable photo badge is both personal and practical.
Many people these days must wear a badge at the office and kids and adults alike prefer the retractable badges. Add a personal touch to this ordinary item by putting the photo of a loved one or loved ones right on the badge.
Create a photo badge is easy and quick:
1. Buy an inexpensive retractable badge at your favorite office supply store.
2. Buy either some photo-quality sticker paper or the nicest label paper you can find. Usually, photo-quality isn't necessary since these photos will be so small.
3. Lay various coins on the badge to see which one most closely matches the ideal size for your photograph.
4. Print the photo on plain paper in draft quality first. Trace the coin on the photo, cut it out, and see if it looks right on the badge.
5. Once you perfect the size and layout, simply print the photo again on the sticky paper, trace, cut, and stick it to the badge.
Don't forget to wrap it in a nice box or another special way. This is a quick, easy, and inexpensive gift idea, but it will be greatly appreciated.
