The best Christmas gifts for pet people aren't generic — they're personal. Every portrait at Love Stays Studio starts from a photo of their actual dog or cat and becomes a watercolor-style gift: a framed poster for the wall, a mug for every morning, a stocking with their face on it. Here's the full range, and the one date that matters.
Order by December 4
Order personalized items by December 4 for the best chance of Christmas delivery within the US. Here's why the date matters: after you order, you reply to your confirmation email with your pet's photo, we email a proof within 1–2 business days, and your item is made only after you approve it. Approving your proof the day it arrives keeps everything on schedule — production starts with your approval, not before.
Two items in the range — the sweatshirt and the phone case — are made outside the US and take longer in transit. If one of those is the gift, order it earliest of all.
The poster + mug gift set
Our favorite pairing: the Custom Watercolor Pet Portrait Poster (from $29.95) for their wall, and the matching Custom Watercolor Pet Portrait Mug (from $34.95) for their desk or kitchen. Together that's $64.90 — add the portrait sticker ($9.95) and the whole set crosses $70, which means it ships free anywhere in the US.
Gift picks from the portrait range
Small but personal: the portrait ornament ($24.95) for their tree, and the Christmas stocking ($39.95) with their pet's portrait on it.
The centerpiece: the Framed Poster (from $59.95) arrives ready to hang, and the portrait blanket (from $69.95; the two larger sizes clear the $70 free-shipping line on their own) is the one that gets used every single day.
To wear: the portrait hoodie ($59.95) and t-shirt ($34.95) put their favorite face front and center. Browse the whole range in the Custom Pet Portraits collection.
Free US shipping on portrait orders of $70+
Every custom portrait order of $70 or more ships free within the US. Under $70, a simple flat rate applies at checkout — no surprises later.
And something for the pet, too
Personalized gifts are made to order, but our Pet Gifts and Winter Warmers collections are ready-made — beds, toys and cold-weather comfort that ship without the proof step. Handy when the dog deserves a present under the tree as well.
