As this is a 'DIY' tutorial, all you need are a few everyday household objects and your imagination to create original, authentic gifts that your family and friends will love.

Here's a rundown on what the COOPH team create:

1. Photo Wine Glasses  - Add images of pets, friends and family to the base of glasses.
2. Lens Vase - With an old camera lens, and a few tools, you can create a vase out of a lens to store trinkets or flowers. 
3. Photo Fan - Print out a favourite photo and with some patience, chopsticks, glue and ruler, you can create a rather pretty fan. 
4. Photo Ornament - Take some photos, pop them inside a glass container that will look lovely hung on a Christmas tree (the COOPH team use light bulbs, add a ribbon to the jar/light bulb and you have a lovely ornament. 
5. Picture Puzzles - Photos plus building bricks = fun and quirky ways to share portraits. 
6. Photo Wreath - Go against tradition and use your photos to make a wreath for your (inside) door.
