If you are searching for gift ideas, perhaps for a parent or a Grandparent then let me tell you of an idea I came across recently. Personalised cushion trays!
Hey they are not as boring a gift as you might think.. read on!!

I would guess that most people have seen the cushion tray, a melamine tray top attached to a fabric base filled with tiny polystyrene balls. The cushion base gives greater stability to the tray as the beads inside mould themselves to whatever they are put on.
The trays are a great alternative to the balancing act with a regular tray when you fancy a TV dinner! If you are a letter writer or enjoy crafts you can work comfortably from your sofa with the tray on your knees, as opposed to sitting at a table or desk, or if you are confined to bed for any reason the trays are ideal for meals or again correspondence or books etc.

Most of the trays I have seen in stores have varying designs on the tray top, animals, flowers, food etc., however… If you want to make the design on your tray more personal I have found a company that can put your favourite family photographs onto the tray top, this would be great for grandparents who perhaps are not able to see their grand children as often as they would like. A special picture of the children enlarged to fit the tray top (16" x 11").

Other ideas could be a photo taken of a favourite holiday spot, favourite pet, kids favourite pics (great for doing homework on) or if you're a little wacky even a post wedding gift with a photo of the happy couple adorned on the tray!

They trays cost £22.99, a little more expensive than the shop bought commercial designs, but then the little extra thought that goes into personalising a gift would surely make it worthwhile.
