If you’re looking for cute, personalized gifts that you can design yourself, you’ll probably run across large sites that have a lot of corporate logo stuff. But if you go directly to Zazzle, you’ll find plenty of options for customizable template designs that you can edit yourself. You don’t have to start designing from scratch, and it’s easy to use. Plus, you’ll be supporting a small business owner when you buy from our designs!

How does Zazzle work?
Zazzle is a site that lets independent designers upload templates and finished deigns to an individual shop, and then customers can come to edit the templates to add their own information. Zazzle prints and sends the products, so they do quality control and customer service. They have everything from party invitations to home decor and sports equipment.
As a customer, it’s easy to customize things because you do it on the site before you order. There’s no need to download instructions after purchasing and then use a third-party tool, which is pretty common for other sites and editable templates. Everything is on Zazzle, and if you need help you can contact them or the designer directly, or go through their extensive help section.
