If you do not feel confident enough to make the frame yourself, you can buy an inexpensive, plain frame and decorate with paint, beads, shells and any other materials you can obtain from art stores or even around the house. This is a particularly good personalized gift as it conjures up good memories as well as receiving a gift.

Again, using photos from various points in their life, you can create an album with little personalized captions or a calendar.
