A photo fridge magnet is the smallest personalised gift that gets looked at the most. It sits on the fridge door, where the whole family walks past it a dozen times a day. At Gribzy you design it yourself: upload a photo, add a name or a date, and see the result straight away. Each magnet is 5.5 × 7.5 cm and costs 5.90 €.

How it works

1. Open the photo fridge magnet page and add your photo (JPG or PNG).
2. Drag and zoom until the framing is right.
3. Add text if you like, and choose the lettering, colour and position.
4. Check the preview and add it to your basket.
5. Want several? Change the photo and add the next one.

The magnet is printed by sublimation, so the colours bond into the surface and won’t peel or fade. The flexible 2 mm sheet sticks to fridges, whiteboards and metal cabinets.

Christmas: a magnet for every grandchild

Magnets make a lovely Christmas set. Order one per grandchild, each with their photo and name, and grandma gets a whole row of faces on her fridge. Other Christmas ideas:

• A photo Christmas card that stays. Put your family photo and “Merry Christmas 2026” on a magnet and send it instead of, or with, a card.
• Stocking fillers for children: a magnet with their pet or their favourite holiday photo.
• Teacher and kindergarten gifts: a class or group photo for each teacher.
• Small gifts for clients: your logo and contact details, seen all year.

Other occasions for photo magnets

• Save-the-dates for weddings. Photo, names and date. Guests keep them on the fridge for months.
• Wedding favours and thank-yous. A magnet with the couple’s photo for every guest.
• Birth announcements. The baby’s first photo with name, date and weight.
• Birthdays and parties. Party favours with a photo of the birthday child.
• Valentine’s Day. A small photo of the two of you for the office fridge or a locker.
• School and kindergarten. End-of-year group photos, one magnet per child.
• Holidays and summer cottage. The best travel photo of the summer, as a souvenir.
• Moving house. A “we have moved” magnet with your new address for friends and family.
• Pets. A photo of the dog or cat, with their name.
• Businesses and clubs. Logo, phone number and opening hours on the fridge of every customer.

What to put on a magnet

Close-ups work best at this size: one or two faces, a pet, a logo, a short message or a date. If you want a collage, keep it to two or three photos.

Tips for great photo magnets

1. Use the original photo, not a screenshot or a picture saved from Facebook.
2. Choose portrait photos for the upright shape, or zoom in on a landscape photo.
3. Keep text short and readable. One line of name or date is enough.
4. Check the preview carefully, especially names, before adding to the basket.

Frequently asked questions

What size is the photo fridge magnet?

5.5 × 7.5 cm with rounded corners, on a flexible magnetic sheet 2 mm thick that won’t crack.

Can I order magnets with different photos in one order?

Yes. Design one magnet, add it to the basket, change the photo and add the next. This is how most people order sets for family members or wedding guests.

Will the photo fade in the kitchen?

No. The photo is sublimation printed, so the colour bonds into the surface instead of sitting on top. Wipe it with a damp cloth to clean.

Can I use a photo magnet as a save-the-date?

Yes. Add your photo, names and the wedding date, order one per guest household and post them or hand them out. Guests keep them on the fridge, so the date is hard to forget.

Is a photo magnet a good Christmas gift for grandparents?

Yes, especially as a set: one magnet per grandchild, each with their photo and name. It is small, inexpensive and seen every day.
