Who says graduation gifts have to cost a lot? With today's economy, many families are barely getting by. A graduation gift doesn't have to make a person broke. it just has to be something with meaning to the graduating student.

Personalized Photo Collage and Graduation Poem

Grab some pictures of the graduating student. Pictures can be from just the school years or throughout the student's life. Put them together in a fun photo collage. All that's needed to buy is an inexpensive picture frame and a wonderful, personalized gift has been created.

Another great graduation gift idea is to write an original poem. Include both funny and sentimental moments of the student's life. Find some pretty or inspirational background paper to print the poem up on and then place in a frame.
