The pet design on a square glass ornament with your photograph. The square is the shape for the animal photograph that is wider than it is tall, which covers most of the good ones: a dog lying down, two cats on a windowsill, a horse in profile.
Round, heart, bone and paw all crop inwards from the sides, and on an animal photograph what gets cut is usually the tail, the paws or the second pet. A square takes almost nothing off a rectangular picture, and the largest size is the biggest piece of glass in this range. For a full body shot rather than a head, this is the only shape that will hold it.
If the picture is a close head shot, the bone or paw versions say what the ornament is about from across the room, which a square cannot. The square is the choice when the photograph is doing the work and the shape is simply a frame around it. Both approaches are valid and they suit different pictures rather than different people.
The image goes onto the glass in full colour, which matters more for animals than for people. A black labrador or a tortoiseshell cat is recognised by its coat, and in full colour the coat stays the colour it actually is. Light travels through the glass, so hang the ornament with a bulb behind it rather than in front.
Dark coated animals are the difficult case for any photo ornament, so send the brightest picture you have, taken outdoors or beside a window rather than under a lamp. The middle size is where most orders land, large enough to hold a whole animal clearly and small enough to hang among ordinary decorations. The same design is made in round, heart, octagon, bell, bone and paw shapes. Households with several animals usually order one ornament each rather than a group photograph, which reads better on a tree and avoids a crowded square at any size.
The range runs to seven shapes. Heart, round, square, octagon, bell, bone, paw. You can build a set from whichever shapes you want.
