IDEAS

What to print for Christmas

The Christmas presents that get kept are the ones that couldn't have come from a shop. A few that work, all from photos or files you already have:

  • The best family photo of the year, framed in Oak, for parents
  • A child's drawing printed at A3 and framed, for grandparents who've seen it on the fridge
  • The dog, obviously
  • A wedding photo for a couple's first married Christmas
  • A set of three prints for someone who moved house this year, 20% off to one address
  • The artwork they bought as a download in January and still haven't printed

Anything you own or have the right to print works. We print what you upload, so take a second on the preview before you confirm, and remember the crop: a square photo wants a square size.

Christmas order dates

For delivery in the UK by Christmas Eve, order prints by Tuesday 15 December and framed prints by Saturday 12 December. Both dates have a few days of margin built in, everything is tracked, and prints ordered before 3pm on a working day leave the same day.

Order after those dates and we'll still print and post it as fast as we can; it just may not arrive before the 25th. If you're late, an unframed print is your best chance, because it leaves the day you order.

Outside the UK, production and delivery take longer: order a week earlier than the UK dates to be comfortable, and check the delivery times on the page for your country.

WHY PRINTSHRIMP

A gift that looks like you tried

240gsm giclée printing

Heavyweight archival paper and giclée-quality printing on every order. Thick enough to feel, sharp enough to frame.

Printed and posted in days

UK orders placed before 3pm on a working day are dispatched the same day. Framed prints are made in 1 to 3 working days. Tracked all the way, with the number sent to you, not them.

A fraction of a framer's price

We print for thousands of sellers, so a framed print costs a fraction of what a framer charges, and three or more prints to one address are 20% off.

Rated 4.8 on Trustpilot

Over 5,000 sellers and 250,000 prints delivered. The same paper, presses and frames are yours for a single poster.

THE PAPER

Paper you can feel

Every poster is printed on 240gsm archival paper, FSC-certified, with giclée-quality inks. It's the paper our sellers get rave reviews for, and it's the same for a single print as for a thousand. Three finishes, all the same price.

Gloss
Bold, vibrant colours with a reflective shine. The one for photos.
Satin
Smooth, subtle sheen with minimal glare. Lifts colour without the shine.
Matte
Classic flat finish, no reflections. The choice for art prints and anything behind glass.

FRAMING

Framed, so there's nothing left for them to do

Black, White or Oak pine, 20–25mm deep, glazed with shatter-resistant plexiglass, hanging kit in the box. Printed matte so there's no glare behind the glass. Most sizes up to A1.

Black frame

A smooth black finish. Pine, 20–25mm deep, with 1–2mm shatter-resistant plexiglass.

Oak frame

A natural oak finish. Corner-protected in transit and delivered with the hanging kit in the box.

White frame

A clean white frame. Printed matte so there's no glare behind the glass, ready to hang the moment it arrives.

HOW IT WORKS

Done in minutes

No shop, no framer, no wrapping. Choose, upload, add a message, and it's on its way.
1

Choose a size

A5 to A0, 5x7 to 28x40 inches and squares. Pick the one that suits the shape of your image; the crop frame changes to match it.

2

Upload and crop

Drop in a photo, a design or a print file, move the crop until it looks right, and what you see is what prints. Add a finish, or a Black, White or Oak frame.

3

Add a message

Write it in the basket before you pay. It's printed on a slip and packed with the print; leave it blank and the parcel goes out with nothing in it but the gift.

4

Delivered to them

Their address at checkout, yours as the buyer. Tracked, delivery included, in a plain tube or box, ready for the wall.

REVIEWS

What people say about our prints

Rated 4.8 on Trustpilot by the sellers whose customers see our prints every day.

Joe, Trustpilot

"I looked around and found PrintShrimp and so far it has been amazing. My customers are now leaving reviews because the print quality is so good. Just today a customer messaged me a print she received elsewhere and one from PrintShrimp because she was so amazed by the difference."

Chloe Mitchell, Trustpilot

"Affordable prices and quality prints. I've had raving reviews about the quality of the posters I've had sent out and how quickly they're delivered. The owners have been top notch and always so helpful."

Tina, Trustpilot

"Excellent service and paper quality. Quick replies to any questions I have. Customers often comment on the excellent quality of their poster paper."

Gift questions

Will it arrive before Christmas?

In the UK, yes, if you order prints by 15 December or framed prints by 12 December. Both dates have margin in them. After that we still print and post as fast as we can, but we can't promise the 24th.

Can it go straight to them, with a message?

Yes. Their address at checkout, yours as the buyer, and the message written in the basket. It's printed on a slip and packed with the print; nothing in the parcel shows a price.

I've missed the date. What's my best option?

An unframed print, ordered before 3pm, which leaves the same day. If it's going to be close, have it sent to you rather than them, so you can hand it over on the day.

Can I order for several people at once?

One address per order, so make a separate order for each person; each one gets its own message and its own tracking. Prints going to the same address can share an order and three or more are 20% off.

Last-minute Christmas presents that still arrive in time

The reason a print works as a late present is that the slow part, the thinking, is already done: the photo exists. Pick it, choose a size, crop, pay, and in the UK it's dispatched the same working day if you order before 3pm. That's a real present, not a gift card, ordered on a Monday and on a wall by the weekend.

If you're inside the dates, framed is the better gift, because it arrives finished and nobody has to find a frame on Boxing Day. If you're past the framed date but inside the print date, order unframed and let them choose the frame, or order the frame separately in January. If you're past both dates, order it anyway, have it sent to you, and if it arrives on the 23rd you're a hero; if it arrives on the 27th you've got a late present rather than no present.

Either way, the message goes in the box, the tracking comes to you, and nothing in the parcel gives away the price or the fact that it was ordered at eleven at night.
