Valentine’s day has become such a commercialized holiday -- seems like it’s more about chocolate and forget about personalized gives like custom laptop skins or wall decals! Nothing against chocolate, of course! It’s a great gift, but why not celebrate this Valentine’s day by giving your loved one something a little more personal than just candy and flowers? It may be easier than you think to put together a thoughtful, personalized Valentine’s day gift. Here’s one idea I came up with of what you could do this Valentine’s with sticviews custom prints:

Step 1:

Find all your favorite photos of you and your Valentine:

Photos by Flickr user slemmon

OR set up a photo shoot with a photographer so you will have good quality photos to work with. Great photography is an investment -- it’s something that archives your life’s story so you remember people and events worth remembering. Truly gifted photographers will be able to capture great moments that really show your personality. Here’s some of our favorite photographers:

• Sweet E Images
• Keri Meyers Photography
• Table 4 Weddings

Step 2:

Upload your photos to sticviews.com

sticviews prints photo-quality prints, both on several different types of adhesive materials and poster paper (we call it art paper on the website). All high quality, high resolution photos print beautifully on sticviews. This makes sticviews perfect for custom photo enlargements. It also means you can personalize any gift with your great photos by simply peeling and stic’in your photos on as decorations.

Step 3:

Give your custom photo enlargements as a gift or personalize another gift with your custom sticviews photo prints.

Here’s some ideas of what you could do with your custom Valentine’s sticviews:

Custom wall decals for your bedroom:

Custom laptop skin:

Create a personalized memory box:

Fill a box or chest with momentos from you and your Valentine’s love life and stic your sticviews photo decals on it. Create a custom sticker label with our text editor.

Skin your coffee table or other furniture:

Create a photo collage straight onto your coffee table without worrying about messy glues or laminates. Just peel and stic your sticviews custom photo stickers onto a flat surface. Peel off and stic on again if you mess up -- sticviews are always easily removed and come off clean. Check out how we skinned the sticviews’ office coffee tables with animal print in this blog article!

Decorate your their office space and skin their office desk:

Surprise your Valentine by personalizing their work space with your photo decals and custom photo enlargements.

I hope this gives you some ideas about how you can give a personalized Valentine’s gift this year!

Happy stic’in!

What to bring to a conference? — Custom Decals and Custom Laptop Skins

So, you’ve started a blog or a business and you’re building a following -- now what?  Now is the time to start really learning from the experts.  Tradeshows and conferences are a great way to meet other entrepreneurs in your business area and learn from the best in the industry.  For example, conferences such as Blissdom and BlogHer are for the women bloggers, SxSW for music, film and interactive, Blog World Expo for all bloggers, and many more tradeshows are great opportunities to learn from others.  Sticviews is sponsoring Amy Locurto and Angie Arthur of I Heart Faces for the Blissdom conference this February, and we wanted to pass along some useful hints for being prepared to attend your conference.

1. Business Cards – We just got some really awesome business cards from moo.com and we’re really excited to get them shipped in. Hopefully we’ll have them in time for the next Social Media Club Dallas event with Chris Brogan on the 21^st!  Business cards are a great way to give your contact information to people you meet and helps you follow up with people after the conference is over.  You can always go with innovative creative designs like the ones on Web Designer Depot.  TIP: Make sure to put your social network contact information on your cards (Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc) -- many people forget! And you could always be creative. Amy Locurto handed out her business cards with a little Valentine’s Day sticker gift -- no one threw those away!
   
   

   

2. Create a list before you go of questions you’d like answered or specific people you want to seek out. You don’t want to miss the opportunity to talk to someone who has more experience in particular areas that could really be of benefit to you and your website.  TIP: You can tweet about your questions too!  If you don’t have a smart phone or a laptop for the weekend I recommend you borrowing one for the weekend.
3. Laptop skins – If you are a known blogger, or a beginner, getting a laptop skin with your blog name or banner on it really helps people put a face to the name of your blog. What a great way to promote your blog through technology.  Angie and Amy from I Heart Faces received their laptop skins from sticviews. Remember…it’s hard to recognize faces, but it helps when people can recognize your blog banner or twitter profile photo.  Amy Locurto recommends putting your blog banner and your Twitter photo on the laptop skin works great.
4. iPhone skins – Do you have an iPhone or another smart phone? You can get custom decals to fit on the back of your phone (see below) to also promote your blog.
   
5. T-shirts – This is always a fun thing to have around. Another great way to make your brand known while walking around a conference. Nomee handed out free t-shirts at the Twestival event last year -- great way to build awareness and recognition of your brand.
   
6. Camera – You never know who you are going to meet at the conference, and it’s a great way to showcase things you saw when you blog about your experience.
7. Do some research on the presenters of the conference. It’s good to come in well prepared to soak up the knowledge they have to offer without having to figure out who the people are before hand.
8. Mints or gum – you are going to be doing a lot of talking, and you should pay the favor to your neighbor!

There are always lists on the conference sites of extra things to bring, but this list is pretty comprehensive of things you need to bring!  Is there something you won’t go to a conference without?  Let us know.

Print photos of pets on sticviews using wall decals and custom laptop skins! I like alliteration, apparently!

Sonya here giving an update and ideas for sticviews! I’ve been busy managing the print production here at sticviews, but I wanted to give a quick update on some adorable laptop skin orders we’ve been getting. On sticviews.com, you can upload any photo and create your own custom sticky print -- whether it’s a custom laptop skin, car decal, wall decal, or a window decal. What better way to personalize your home than with photos of your cute pet?

Our custom laptop skins are our most popular product because they’re the most affordable custom skins on the market. Most are about $10. All of the images below are orders by real sticviews customers, except the kitten laptop (I guess we have a lot of dog lovers!).
