Going on holiday is one of the best opportunities to take photos. We like to take as many as possible because we hope that this will allow us to relive those moments and keep alive the feelings of happiness and relaxation we experienced at the time.     

The problem is that, more often than not, we fill up our phone’s memory and the photos end up nowhere else but on our phone, whilst the luckiest ones get posted on social media. If this sounds familiar to you too, we’ve come up with a few ideas for actually using your holiday photos in an ingenious way that will bring us even more joy!

1. Turn your photos into wall art
We capture so many special moments whilst on holiday. Whether it’s a landscape or a lovely family snap, there will always be a few photos worth printing. So why not print them out and turn them into real photo albums on the walls of our home? For ideas like this, you can choose from a collection of personalised prints, with simple designs, landscape formats or collage and text layouts.

2. Fill the world map with your holiday photos
To decorate our home, we can also set aside a wall to hang a giant world map. We recommend a scratch-off map, and alongside this you can stick representative photos from the country you’ve visited – a sort of offline ‘check-in’, instead of the one on Facebook. Little by little, the wall will turn into a veritable wall of memories.

3. Create a holiday corner in your own home
Some photos look great when they’re printed out and arranged together. You could consider arranging your photos on a metal wire that hangs nicely in a corner of your home. You’ll create a special display right in your own home.

4. Brighten up your office with instant photos
Even if it’s not pleasant to return home or to work, you can decorate your office and treat your eyes to desk frames, globes or mouse pads featuring the wonderful places you’ve just discovered, whether you’re working from home or in the office! Whilst you wait for your next holiday, you can let your mind wander from time to time!

5. Send greetings in the digital age
In days gone by, we used to send postcards from the places we visited; now you have the chance to create your own cards or greetings with a personalised message and send greetings using your own holiday photos.

6. Print photos on almost anything
- Personalise a jigsaw puzzle – If you have one or more photos you like, you can turn them into a jigsaw puzzle to put together whenever you’re feeling homesick.
- Create magnets, stickers and notebooks – With your favourite photos, you can create a little photo album for your fridge or decorate various items with a collection of holiday stickers.
- Print photos on cushions, T-shirts, bags, rucksacks, soft toys, accessory pouches and phone cases – All can be personalised very easily, as long as you have the photos!
- Mugs, aprons, plates, sets of oven gloves and trivets – Brighten up your home with themed items that are also very useful in the kitchen!
