Black and White Photos

Sometimes we get this question: can you make a Personalized Custom Photo Snow Globe with a black and white photo?  Being the agreeable types we are about Snow Globes, of course we say "yes, we can."  However, you will need to make the original photo into a digital file first. If you have a scanner, you can place the original photo carefully on the glass and create a digital file to be mailed to us.

You don't need a coupon, you don't need a promotion code. Anyone can do it.  The image that we insert into our Custom Snow Globes are two-sided. That means if you send us one photo, we will duplicate it back-to-back in the SnowGlobe.  But if you send us two digital photos, we will make your one-of-a-kind snow globe with TWO images for the same price as one. Still back to back,...

Please Say Yes.

.After writing about missing beloved pets and employees dealing with the loss of a man they loved and respected, my boss said it might be time to mention that sometimes our personalized globes are actually created for happier occasions.   The Snow Globe has a photo inside, or two different photos back to back, but that isn’t the only part of the Snow Globe that is customized. There is also an engraved plate on the base of the globe. Now, I’m not a genius, but you can usually figure out just what is going on by reading the plate and looking at the...
