These stamps are not only cute, they’re completely legal to use as U.S. postage. 

Zazzle has the best prices on photo postage stamps, with a sheet of twenty 1.8" x 1.3"  44¢ stamps selling for $17.95.  With the value of the stamps themselves being $8.80, you’ll be paying less than $10 for the photo customization.   Zazzle also offers 2.1" x 1.3" stamps for $18.95, and 2.5" x 1.5" stamps for $19.95.   Photo Stamps are available in 8 denominations, from 28¢ postcard stamps to $4.95 Priority Mail stamps.  Discounts are available for purchasing multiple sheets.

Kodak Galleryalso offers photo stamps, twenty 1.9” x 1.4" 42¢ stamps are sold for   $18.99 (apparently Kodak hasn’t heard about the rate increase).  Snapfish may have a slightly better deal, with twenty 44¢ (not 42¢) stamps for $18.99, but Snapfish does not list the stamp’s dimensions. 

Regardless of where you buy them, photo stamps are yet another truly uncommon  Mother’s Day photo gift.

People who have family photos plastered all over the place kinda scare me. It's nice to remember family events and whatnot, but do you really need someone staring back at you every time you drink coffee or move your mouse? Photos on stamps, I suppose if you are going to bombard friends with photocards at holidays, why not add a photo to the stamp as well.

How much of this stuff ends up on display at moms house just cause you're still her child and she doesn't want to hurt your feelings? Like those macaroni pictures and hand-crafted pencil holders you used to make at school? I think the tech gifts for mom were much more practical, assuming she would actually use them.

I don't know if anyone wants to plaster the house with this stuff, and hey, it isn't for everyone, but I think many of these are great "one time" gifts for a mom or grandma. Also, sometimes it just interesting to see what is out there in terms of online retail. I know I was surprised by some of these!

Alright, photo footballs!

I don't even know my mother and I wouldn't be up for that. Also, $15 for a keychain?!
