Personalized Tactile Pictures for Blind/VI with Optional Braille
Send a photo of a loved one, pet or special place and it's turned into a raised tactile picture that someone who is blind or low vision can explore by touch. Available in three sizes, with an optional Braille caption at no extra charge.
Free shipping. Printed to order in Springfield, Illinois, and ships in 5–7 business days.
Because every item is printed to order, returns aren't accepted. If there's a problem with your order, please contact Joe.
Send me a digital photograph and I'll turn it in to a tactile photo. Sizes vary from 6x4.5 inches, 5x7 inches and 6x8 inches.
These are perfect for someone who is blind or has a vision impairment to feel pictures. The best photographs to use are high resolution
Once you place an order, please send me the picture you'd like to use through the contact form on this site, and include the name on your order. If you'd like braille added to the bottom of the photo, type it in the Braille text box before adding the picture to your cart. Although it's optional, it's no additional charge. I do find it best to keep the braille to 15 characters or less for portrait photos and 20 or less for landscape photos.
Note: I use my best judgement when editing the photo. I tend to zoom in on faces and remove backgrounds that may be confusing for the user. If you want your photo exactly as is, or want to ensure something important stays in the photo, please let me know.
I make these on my 3d printer using PLA, which is like plastic but eco friendly! 3d printed objects can have layer lines or minor imperfections.
Feel free to send me a message with any questions!
