With more and more of the world's population, especially in the US and other
developed countries, living longer and staying active long past traditional
retirement age, celebrating a 75th birthday has become more commonplace than ever before.
And more and more 75th birthday celebrations are taking place in retirement homes
and condominium-style retirement communities.
Assisted living communities and full care facilities have become practical alternatives
for seniors who could no longer manage alone in their family homes. In many cases
moving into a smaller living area relieved many burdens but opened up possibilities
for meeting people, making new friends and staying active well past seventy five.
Leaving a family home that was filled with possessions and memories was understandably
very difficult, and getting rid of possessions accumulated over the years was no
doubt a relief mixed with some regret.
If someone you know is celebrating a 75th birthday in a retirement home or assisted care
facility and you are considering special birthday gift ideas, here's a unique 75th
birthday gift idea that is guaranteed to please that special parent or grandparent
and be a perfect addition to his or her new home. And this outstanding gift will
become an instant family heirloom.
Give your loved one an original oil painting, watercolor, pastel, acrylic or
pencil drawing, especially commissioned and handmade from a photograph by the
professional artists of www.PaintYourLife.com .
Commissioning an oil painting for a 75th birthday gift might at first sound like a
difficult and expensive undertaking, not to mention a time-consuming process. On
the contrary, you can instantly submit the digital photo of your choice (or more
than one photo if you request a composite portrait) to
www.PaintYourLife.com with your
choice of medium.
Take a look at the many samples in the online gallery to get a clear idea of
which medium suits the photo you want painted. Ordering is easy and quick, and
all the information you need is fully explained on site. You will be amazed at
how inexpensive a painting is and how quickly it will be completed and shipped
directly to you. You can even order the frame together with the painting.
The only difficult part of the process will be deciding which photograph to send.
Perhaps a current family group photo or an old wedding or anniversary portrait; or
maybe a composite of all the grandchildren using the best photos of each.
Another suggestion which has met with a wonderful response from older customers
is an oil painting, pastel or watercolor of the family home from a photo taken
during past times rich with memories. A richly colored painting of a beloved
home hung on the wall of a small apartment or private room will become a source
of comfort and memories that will be enjoyed every day.
A painting is a unique 75th birthday gift that will surprise and delight the recipient
and give pleasure every day thereafter.
