From ₹453 · 3mm & 5mm acrylic
When friends or relatives move into a new home, the usual gifts pile up: a clock, a vase, a set of steel containers. The walls, meanwhile, stay bare for months because choosing what to hang is harder than it looks. A framed photograph solves that, and it is more personal than anything from a shop. It tells the family that you thought about their wall, not only about the occasion, and it will still be there years after the sweets are finished.
The photograph is the real decision. Most people give a picture of the hosts themselves, such as a wedding portrait or a recent family photo. Others choose something about the move: the old house that is being left behind, the construction site from the first visit, or the family at the front door on the day of griha pravesh. For colleagues or neighbours you know less well, a calm landscape or a simple abstract of the city works and avoids guessing at taste.
Size and timing matter. A frame between 12×18 and 20×30 inches suits most living room or entrance walls. Order about ten days before the ceremony so there is room for production and delivery to a new address, which may not be set up yet. For a couple's home, our couple frames are a safe pairing, and for a larger family, see the family collection.
Choosing a photograph a host will actually hang
Think about who the frame is for and whether they will want to see it daily. A close friend may love a candid picture from a trip you shared. A senior colleague probably prefers something formal, such as a clear portrait of their family from a recent function. If you are unsure, ask a relative for a recent photo and say it is for the new home.
Check the image size before you order. Many group photos are shared on WhatsApp in a compressed form that looks fine on a phone but soft at 16×20 inches. Ask for the original, or have the host send it. Our upload check will warn you if the picture is too small, which is better than finding out after you have paid.
Getting a gift to a new home on time and in one piece
New homes often have no one at the door during the day. Give a phone number that will actually be picked up, and confirm a delivery window with the family. Orders typically take 1 to 3 working days to produce after payment and file check, then 2 to 5 days to metro addresses or 4 to 8 days elsewhere.
Include a short note at checkout in your own words. If the gift should arrive before the ceremony rather than after, order early and mention the date. The frame ships in 5-layer protective packaging, so it can be opened on the spot without worry. Studs are included on eligible sizes, so the family can hang it themselves when the walls are ready.

Interior & Placement Tips
- Tell the host the frame size so they can plan the wall. Entrance walls, living room feature walls and hallways suit 12×18 to 20×30 inches.
- Neutral photographs, such as black-and-white or soft tones, fit any decor and avoid clashing with a wall colour the family has not chosen yet.
- If the home is unfurnished, suggest leaning the frame on a console or floor until the walls are painted, then hang it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I choose 3mm or 5mm acrylic?
3mm is lightweight and goes up to 20×30 inches. 5mm has a thicker feel and is the choice for larger displays, up to 48×96 inches.
How long does an acrylic frame take to arrive?
Production is typically 1–3 working days after payment and file check. After dispatch, metro locations usually take 2–5 days and other locations 4–8 days.
What photo resolution do I need?
Higher resolution gives a sharper print, especially at large sizes. The upload step checks your photo and warns you if it is too small for the size you picked.
Does the frame come ready to hang?
Stainless-steel studs are included on eligible sizes from 12×18 inches and above. Smaller sizes suit a shelf or table.
What photo should I choose if I do not know the family well?
Pick something neutral and welcoming: a soft landscape, a skyline of the city they moved to, or a simple abstract. Or ask a mutual friend for a recent family picture. A wrong portrait is worse than a calm image, so avoid guessing when unsure.
How early should I order for griha pravesh?
Order about ten days before the ceremony. Production typically takes 1 to 3 working days after payment and file check, then 2 to 5 days to a metro address or 4 to 8 days elsewhere. A little extra time covers photo corrections and any delivery delays.
Can I send it directly to the new address?
Yes. Enter the new address at checkout with a phone number that will be answered. If the home is not ready, ask the family when someone will be there. The frame ships pan-India in 5-layer protective packaging, so it arrives safely.
Is it a good gift for a rented flat where people cannot drill?
Yes, choose a smaller size and let it stand on a shelf or console, no drilling needed. For hung frames, adhesive hooks suit small sizes. Larger frames use the studs, so tell the family before they pick a wall.
Can I make a joint gift with other friends?
Yes, one person places the order and the rest share the cost. Collect a group photo in advance and confirm the best size with someone close to the host. A joint gift often lets you go up to 18×24 or 20×30 inches comfortably.
Will the family be able to hang it themselves?
Yes. Stainless-steel studs are included on eligible sizes from 12×18 inches and above, and any hardware store can supply plugs and screws. A level and two people make hanging straightforward. Smaller sizes are meant for a shelf.
