DIY at Wal-Mart

A few weeks ago a girl at work introduced me to Wal-Mart’s online Photo Center.  I knew I could upload and edit photos, order prints, and pick them up at my discretion.   What I didn’t know was it also contains a do it yourself bonanza!  Things like creating personalized greeting cards, mugs, clothing, blankets, collages, photo books, almost anything you can think of.

I signed up for a free account and started having fun.  This was right before Christmas so I knew I wanted an ornament for Kirby….


For months Doug has been saying he was going to get some t-shirts made with Kirby’s name and picture on them so how could I resist getting him a sweatshirt with Kirby’s name and picture on it….



I finished my projects and checked out.  I was given the choice of having them mailed to the local store or directly to my home.  I didn't have to wait long.  Four days later I received an email telling me they were at the store ready for pick-up.

I have a project I’m working on now for a gift so mums the word but the ideas are endless.  Maybe a collage of Kirby and his Barkery Treats to go in my home office.  Or a family calendar.  Or a mug gift set for someone’s birthday. 

Check it out for yourself.  Go to Wal-Mart.com, then go to the Photo Center and look for personalized gifts.  Pick the item you want to personalize and upload your pictures.  How cool is that?
