If someone special in your life loves dogs, it is a great idea to give them a gift that comes with a poem about dogs. Although a poem in itself is always a great idea, you'll want to make it a little bit special by adding your own personal flavor to it or personalizing it so that it makes the gift unique to your friend or family member.
Frames
This idea can be as simple or as elaborate as you'd like to make it. To make it extremely simple, type up, or write out in fancy hand writing, a poem about dogs (see References for some ideas). Frame it with a frame made by you, or purchase a frame decorated with small craft letters and page pebbles.
For a more complex presentation, add a picture of the person with their special dog, a picture of the dog, a silhouette of a dog or any of your own personal drawings of dogs. You can use it as a background, or you can experiment by placing it in different places on the paper. To make it look even more festive, think about framing the picture and poem with matte paper or using different textures or colors of paper before placing it in the frame.
Pottery or Plates
Most towns in the US and Canada have stores where you can purchase pottery, then paint it, store it and pick it up a few days later, when it is dry, with a nice glazed finish. Think about painting a plate or dog bowl with a poem about a dog (either picked from the References or one you've made up yourself). If you're really artistically inclined, consider drawing a picture of the person's dog above the poem.
Custom Vinyl Letters
For a unique gift, consider ordering custom-made vinyl letters that combine in a text containing the phrase or poem you wish to offer as a gift. The vinyl letters come in sticker form, which makes the final text extremely easy to peel, allowing it to be placed on any surface (See Resources for ordering information).
