Our top tips for creating unique gifts to celebrate siblings day

Happy Siblings Day everyone! Not heard of Siblings Day? For those who aren’t in the know, Siblings Day originates from the US. The day was first held in 1997 and was launched by a woman called Claudia Evart in memory of her brother and sister who both died at a young age. Claudia selected April 11th as the date for the holiday as it was the birthday of her sister. Though the holiday is not recognised as a national holiday in the US it is recognised by many states. On the day families are encouraged to celebrate the relationships between siblings of all ages, wherever they may be.

Thanks largely to social media, the celebrations now seem to have made it across the Pond. Search Instagram and Twitter and you’ll find photos of siblings galore and Facebook timelines have been filling up with sentimental photos of brother and sister combos too. If you’ve not yet snapped, shared or sent a special photo of you or your sibling to let them know how much you care, there’s still time. And of course, save your best snaps to create your own personalised canvas with.  Some of the best sibling shots are those taken when brothers and sisters are unaware a camera is loitering. They capture secret smiles, laughter, a moment of play or even a temper tantrum in action and it’s these instances that make the sibling relationship so special.
