Want to give a more personalized gift this holiday season? It’s not too late to use your photos to create an intimate present your friends and families will never forget. Here are a few of our favorites.

Christmas Ornament @ Cafepress.com
Cafepress.com is a destination for user-designed merchandise where you can create, sell and buy “print-on demand” products. But this Christmas, we’re crazy about the Create-Your-Own-Ornament design tool. Just choose from one of the 36 templates (round or oval shapes), upload an image, edit it to fit and add text if you’d like. Each one costs $12 and promises a lifetime of yuletide memories. Order by December 20.

Hardcover iPhoto Books @ Apple.com
This year, Apple has unveiled a new, extra-large hardcover photo book from iPhoto. At 13” x 10”, it holds 20 pages (10 sheets double-sided) for just $50 and comes with a photo-wrapped cover and matching dust jackets. A traditional bookbinding style and Apple created themes lend a super professional look. You can add additional pages up to 100 for $1.50 each. To get your book by Christmas Eve, order by December 19.

Photo Mug @ Kodakgallery.com
Take your most cherished memories to work with you—or just stare at them while you caffeinate every morning with Kodakgallery.com’s photo mugs. With three styles and 13 different mugs to choose from, ranging from 11 oz at $13 to 20 oz at $23, you’ll be able to satisfy just about anyone’s thirst. And if that special someone prefers their drinks cold—check out the frosted steins for $20. The last day to order is December 18.

Baby Onesie @ Zazzle.com
Babies look good in just about anything and new parents can always use an extra onesie. So get started creating a unique baby gift that will be cherished long after the baby has outgrown it. Choose from long ($19, pink or white) and short sleeve ($18, gray, light blue, pink or white) or organic short sleeve ($24, white). Free shipping is available through December 17 on orders of more than $50.
