Can you believe it’s already November? It’s hard to believe that the holidays are right around the corner. Holiday shopping can be a bit overwhelming so just like every other holiday season, I am dedicated to helping you find the best gifts for your friends and family! Today I’m excited to share two incredible gift ideas from Canon.They’ll be perfect for quite a few people on your holiday shopping list so you definitely want to keep scrolling to learn more.

First up is the Canon IVY 2 mini photo printer. The Canon IVY 2 is a mini photo printer that so many people on your holiday shopping list will go crazy over. Before we get into the details, I just have to point out that it is absolutely adorable and so easy to use. You can connect the printer right to your smartphone and print via the Canon Mini Print App.The best part? It requires no ink! For me, that’s a game-changer. Nothing is worse than wanting to print a photo and realizing you’re out of ink. The Canon IVY 2 Mini Photo Printer uses ZINK paper, which features a sticky back, allowing you to get creative and even decorate with the photos.The Pre-Cut Circle Stickers are my favorite for creating classic stickers you can put anywhere.

The Canon IVY 2 would be the perfect gift for all ages, but especially teens and young adults! It’s a great way for them to bring their camera roll to life.They can use the photos and stickers to create albums and journals, decorate the inside of their lockers, and personalize their computer to name a few. It comes in both white and the prettiest shade of pink! The app also allows you to get creative and customize your photos by adding text and fun borders. Its compact size also makes it perfect for travel. You can throw it right in your purse or carry-on bag and take it with you wherever you go.

Next up is the Canon SELPHY CP1500 compact photo printer, which is quite honestly the gift I personally see myself giving to quite a few people on my list this year. It’s a wireless compact printer that prints high quality 4×6 photos, as well as 2.1” x 2.1” squares and stickers. I feel like in today’s world our photos live in our camera rolls and very rarely make it into albums.The SELPHY CP1500 changes that because it allows you to print photos right in the comfort of your home whenever you want. And it’s incredibly easy.You can use the Canon PRINT app to print with AirPrint, your camera’s memory card or from Instagram or Facebook.There are tons of different options. The SELPHY CP1500 uses Dye-Sub Technology which allows your prints to last for up to 100 years, and they dry instantly which is definitely a plus.

I find the SELPHY CP1500 to be the ultimate gift for parents, grandparents, and in-laws. I know from experience how much my mother-in-law treasures photos she receives from her kids because everyone lives in a different state. If she had the ability to print them from home, I know she would have every single one on display (which is why we grabbed her a SELPHY CP1500 for Christmas).

If you have a Canon IVY 2 mini photo printer or Canon SELPHY CP1500 compact photo printer yourself, there are tons of fun ways you can use them this holiday season to level up your gifts.You can create stickers and add them to your gift wrap for the perfect personalized touch. Or consider creating a photo album for someone you love and print all of your photos at home using the SELPHY CP1500. A scrapbook or album will always be one of the best gifts to receive in my eyes.

Both the Canon IVY 2 and the SELPHY CP1500 would make amazing gifts this holiday season, for recipients of all ages.And the fact that family & friends can use them to print years worth of memories makes them even more special.You can shop the Canon IVY 2 here and the Canon SELPHY CP1500 here.
