Unique 3D print ideas

So let your creativity run wild and think about exactly what it is that means the most to that person; Christmas doesn’t have to be the only time for giving, so use the print ideas we’re about to run you through for inspiration and give a little – or a lot - in the year of 2015!

DECORATIVE PIECES

Decorations, whether they are part of an overall theme or placed as individual stand-out pieces, are the perfect way to set down a marker of a person’s individuality. Not only will it remind them of you every time that they see it, but it'll be a reminder to yourself of your creative side whenever you see it, too!

CHARACTER REPLICAS

Character replicas are a great way of tapping into your passion for a particular film, TV show or video game. Mixing a little of your own creativity with an already beloved character might just be the perfect way to ensure that a childhood hero or an adulthood movie favourite is forever immortalised.

JEWELLERY

3D printed jewellery guarantees that, whatever you make, there's only ever going to be one of them in the world, giving it a unique charm that can’t be readily bought. Whether for yourself or a significant other a piece of custom jewellery is a unique statement with the added twist of being crafted using cutting-edge technology. With the option to design everything yourself, custom jewellery could just be the perfect way to show that special someone just how much they mean to you – even if that special someone is you.

ORNAMENTS

The best houses reflect the personalities and lives of the people that live within them and surely there is no more fitting way to put your mark on a room than by displaying something that really reflects your personality. Especially effective as a sentimental reminder, a 3D printed, creative ornament is the perfect choice for anyone wishing to be always present in the lives (or houses!) of their loved ones.

CUSTOM ACTION FIGURES 

Children are always looking for the next best toy or the next big trend, so it stands to reason that action figures and toys will, in the next few years, make big a big splash in the world of 3D print. With a toy you create there’s no limits to where yours and or your child’s imagination can go, so let it loose and create something that makes its owner feel one of a kind.

BITS AND BOBS

Bits and bobs and pieces and trinkets can sometimes hold a real sentimental value. Even something as simple as 3D printed cutler could mean an awful lot to the right person. It could literally be anything; make a comb, a pair of chopsticks, even a custom key-ring and it could turn out to be the most useful thing you’ve ever owned.

So, what are you waiting for? Now that you have a few ideas and inspiration, get out there and start creating your own 3D prints.
