Choose the ArtPix 3D Crystal Shape that Matches Your Personal Style
The best part? It’s going to take you all of 2 minutes to place your order with ArtPix 3D.
Or so you think.
There’s still one decision you have to make, and it might be the most important one. What crystal shape is the best fit for their personal style?
At ArtPix 3D, we do our best to provide plenty of options when it comes to our custom crystals. We believe that every person is one-of-a-kind, so we curate our collection to ensure that anyone can build a personalized keepsake that’s as uniquely beautiful as their photos. Our online shop features five distinct crystal designs, each made to showcase your 3D image in a different captivating shape.
How do you decide which 3D crystal is right for your picture? In this post, we’re going to offer you a little guidance. After all, with great variety comes great responsibility. Or something like that.
The first thing you need to think about is the shape of your image. This isn’t the same as the shape of your photo. When you upload your picture to ArtPix 3D, we always remove the background unless otherwise specified. That way, the people and pets in the picture take center stage inside your crystal. The shape of your 3D image is going to be the shape of the subject of your photo.
Imagine for a moment that your background has already been removed. What shape do you see in the outline of your figures? Is it a long, full-body shot? An expansive image of the whole family standing together? Determining the general shape of your subject can help you narrow down your choices.
Now that you’ve eliminated the crystal shapes that don’t fit the composition of your 3D image, you can move on to the next phase in the decision process. What crystal best represents the person in your photo?
Each one of our crystal shapes has a character of its own, so you’ll want to think about the person you’re buying for and what aspects of their personality and style you want to highlight with your choice. How would you describe them? Are they introverted or extraverted? What are their hobbies? How do they prefer to express themselves? Answering these kinds of questions can help you select a crystal that reflects who they are.

Below, we’ve summed up some of the key features of each of our crystal shapes and matched them up with corresponding personality traits. Read through each description to see which crystal is the best choice for your photo!
Keep in mind that these examples are subjective. Two people can look at the same shape and feel completely different things. The most important aspect of your crystal keepsake is the 3D picture inside, so as long as you’ve selected a meaningful photo, your gift is sure to be well-received.
However, this guide can be helpful if you’re having trouble deciding on a crystal. We had a lot of fun writing these descriptions, so we hope you have fun choosing the crystal shape that matches the personality of your photo!
