A 30th birthday gift worth keeping

Turning thirty deserves more than a gift card. This 30th birthday photo collage brings thirty of their favourite photos into one piece they can hang on the wall, one for each year or simply thirty of the moments that sum them up. Add two lines of your own text along the bottom, their name, the date, or a line only the two of you will get, and it becomes a gift made for them and no one else.

Your two lines of text

There are two lines of text along the bottom of the collage, up to 50 characters each. Use them for their name and the big 3-0, the birthday date, or a short message. They print in a clean, readable style that suits the whole grid.

Framed or unframed, your choice

Choose A3 or A2, and either an unframed print to match frames they already own, or a made-to-order frame. If you go framed, we have a choice of oak, black or white wood, with or without a mount. Unframed prints are produced in-house on 250gsm premium matt paper using a twelve-ink process for accurate colour. Framed collages are handmade to fit the artwork and arrive ready to hang.

Choosing the thirty photos

Half the fun is picking them. Thirty photos gives you room for the whole story, childhood shots, school friends, first jobs, holidays and the people who have been there throughout. It works whether you are buying for a partner, a best friend, a son or daughter, or a sibling hitting the big one.

Put together with a human touch

Your collage is not left to a machine. Kate places and arranges every photo on screen and chooses the best crop for each one, so the layout looks right before anything is printed. If you would like to check it yourself first, choose the proof option and we will send you a copy of your collage to view in your browser and approve. If a photo looks too low in quality to print well, we will flag it so you can swap it.

How to upload your photos

When you have made a purchase you will be sent a link and instructions to upload your photos on our easy to use photo uploader.
This will allow you to upload multiple photos at the same time, see the photos already uploaded to order them and remove any uploaded by mistake.
You do not have to upload all the photos at the same time. You can find a demo of our photo uploader here: Photo Upload Demo

Delivery

UK delivery is free. Unframed prints are dispatched quickly once your photos are in, and framed collages are made to order and take around six working days before they ship, so allow a little time if the birthday is close. The delivery estimate by the Add to basket button updates with your choices and shows the current arrival date, and express is available at checkout.

Environment

We aim to produce gifts that are 100% recyclable, and we encourage all those enjoying opening envelopes to recycle them after they’ve completed their activities.

Our boxes are 100% recyclable, and are constructed from ‘greyboard’ which is made from a mix of recycled and waste paper. The outer wrap paper is also recyclable.

Where possible, the paper we use for our card and envelopes is sourced from FSC-certified suppliers.

Shipping Information

We wish we could hand deliver every order placed with us. Unfortunately, this isn’t possible – so we have to rely on the postman.

Most items ship for free in the UK. Where free delivery applies, it is clearly shown in the product information, so you will know before you order.

Free UK delivery is sent via Royal Mail Tracked 48 to mainland UK addresses. These are usually delivered within 2-3 working days, but this is not guaranteed.

We offer an upgrade to Tracked 24 (next working day) or express, which is sent via Royal Mail Special Delivery.

You can choose to have your order delivered to your own address, sent directly to the recipient, or delivered to a Royal Mail parcel locker or collection point convenient for you. Please note the lockers will hold the order for 3 days, and returned orders will be subject to an additional charge to resend.

We also offer free international shipping on orders over £60 to most countries. Our international orders are sent via Royal Mail International, and tracked depending on the destination.

Tracking is provided on all orders once dispatched and will be shown in your dispatch email.

We aim to send your order within 1 working day of receiving your payment. Orders received before 12pm UK time will be shipped the same day (excluding weekends and bank holidays).

*Shipping will be calculated at checkout, and any delivery costs required will be added at this point.
