A long time ago I gave my lola an album with pictures of her whole brood (seven kids!), their families, their children, and even grandchildren (that would her great grand children). It was no easy task since it was before the digital age and I had to ask titas and cousins living abroad to snail mail me their pictures. Needless to say, it was a gift that was long in the making but was a total hit.

These days, you need not go through that much trouble. A group of cousins who probably love giving personalized gifts as much as I do have come up with a terrific idea to solve the problem. Click Photos makes photo books in various sizes and covers to fit any budget, desk and wall calendars, and other fantastic products.

I’ve always admired the store’s different decor for each season, and this time around, they’ve done a 180. The graffiti-splashed walls are gone, and instead the background is pristine-white, making the rich-colored clothes pop out even more.
