When it comes to gift-giving, there’s nothing better than giving someone something so perfectly them it makes them laugh out loud, shed a proud tear, or snort tea through their nose.
The best gifts aren’t off-the-shelf—they’re the ones that say, “I know you,” “I remembered that joke from that 2009 hendo,” or “Here’s your face on a T-shirt… again" do you remember that night?
That’s precisely why we created the design-your-own experience at Cows Corner.
Whether you’re uploading your own masterpiece or summoning some delightful chaos with our AI tool, this is your chance to get seriously creative with your gifting, and nothing says personalised like a mug shot on a mug!
Where to Start: Pick Your Playground
First up, you get to choose what you’re putting your design on. We’ve a variety of products ready and waiting to become your next hilarious gift.
T-shirts are always a crowd favourite, but we’ve also got mugs for the morning grump, baby grows for the newest arrivals (or the most immature adults), hoodies for the homebodies, and greeting cards for the finishing touch whether you are celebrating a birthday, anniversary or just sending a 'thinking of you' card, we have something for everyone.
Each one is a blank canvas for your mischief. Pick what you fancy and let’s get going.
Upload or Create? You’ve Got Options
Uploading your own stuff
Got a photo that never fails to crack you up? A screenshot of your mate pulling the weirdest face known to man? Or maybe you made a design in your Notes app at 2am and you’re pretty sure it’s comedy gold?
Just upload it.
Drag it into place.
Add some text if you fancy.
Whether it’s a one-liner or a quote from a night no one remembers properly, you’re in complete control of how it looks and reads; we don't change a thing.
And don’t worry, we’ve made the editor super simple. You can resize, move things around, and generally faff about until it feels right, it's so simple even my 90-year-old grandad could use it, and we tried.
Using our AI design tool
Now, if you want to go fully rogue (and we highly recommend it), the AI tool is your new best mate.
You type in literally anything, seriously, try “a dinosaur DJ with glowsticks in Ibiza”, and let the tech magic happen.
Within seconds, the AI will whip up a design that’s unique, hilarious, and sometimes so weird, it just works; you will absolutely love it.
This tool is perfect for when your brain has an image you can’t explain… or when you want to create something so specific it could never exist anywhere else.
The more detail you add to the AI prompt, the more detailed the image it generates. Go wild, fill your boots, and get those creative 'prompting' juices flowing. You will be blown away by what it can generate. Once you're happy with it, pick your product (mug, Tee, hoodie, etc.) and we'll do the rest.
Say It How You Mean It: Add Your Words
Once the visual side is sorted, it’s time to talk text. This is your moment to be poetic, sarcastic, heartfelt, or brutally honest.
Whether you’re adding someone’s nickname, a catchphrase from your group chat, or something totally random like “Certified Spoon Enthusiast,” this is where your gift starts sounding as good as it looks.
Our design tool lets you easily add, move, and resize your text until it feels just right. And remember, the sillier the better; this isn’t Hallmark.
Preview, Approve, and Smugly Admire Your Genius
At this point, you’ve designed something totally unique. But before we fire up the printers, we let you preview exactly what it’ll look like on your chosen product.
You can spin it, zoom it, admire your creativity, and tweak anything that’s not quite hitting the funny bone.
Think of it as a final “wow, I actually nailed this” moment. You deserve it, and then, before you can say boo-to-a-goose your custom, personalised AI merch will be on your doormat ready for you to wear down the pub with your mates, perfect!
The Gifting Upgrade: Add the Finishing Touch
Once you’ve added your creation to your basket, you’ve got one more way to level up your gift: our Cows Corner gift box option.
For just a little extra, we’ll pop your present into a branded box, add your custom message (typos and all, we don’t judge), and ship it straight to the lucky recipient who will be blown away with the thought you've put into the design and gift box.
This is a lifesaver if you’re sending gifts long-distance or if you want to look extra fancy without lifting more than a finger. Honestly, it’s the easiest way to make your gift look premium without spending hours wrapping it yourself (or worse, attempting to find tape, we all have that drawer in the kitchen).
This is what we do at Cows Corner, we make your gifts look beautiful and send them on your behalf, it's that simple and the best thing, it doesn't cost a fortune, and we absolutely love it.
Why Custom Gifts Are So Brilliant
Let’s take a moment to appreciate why this whole thing works so well.
Gifting can be stressful, especially when you’re buying for someone who says, “don’t get me anything” (but definitely wants something, we've all got these people in our family, usually a Dad), or when you’ve done the usual gift cards and socks five years in a row and are now struggling to get something unique or that they will love.
We get it, and that is why we create Cows Corner, for the unique gifts, but better than that, for the unique sporty gifts.
Designing a custom product makes it personal. You’re giving something no one else in the world owns. Whether it’s inside jokes, shared memories, or the unique way they say “chimichanga,” this is your chance to make the gift about them, and that’s what makes it special, they will love it.
And it’s not just about the “funny” factor (although we’re big fans of that). It’s about making someone feel seen. It shows effort, thought, and creativity—all while letting you laugh in the process.
Life can be tough, and lots of people struggle in silence, so what can be better than sending a unique and special gift to somebody that doesn't cost a fortune but shows them you are there and thinking of them?
Who These Gifts Are Perfect For
Honestly? Everyone. But let’s break it down into a little more detail:
-
Best mates: For that one friend who still quotes something you said in 2012. Immortalise the memory on a mug so they can read every day in their morning brew.
-
Siblings: Especially the ones who enjoy a bit of banter. Nothing says “happy birthday” like a hoodie with their worst photo on it.
-
Partners: Whether you’re going romantic, rude, or ridiculous, you can create something that fits your vibe.
-
New parents: Design a baby grow that’ll make the whole family laugh. Bonus points if it makes the grandparents slightly uncomfortable.
-
Colleagues: When you want to go beyond the “world’s best co-worker” nonsense and give them something that’ll actually get used to and laughed at, either in the office or at home.
-
Yourself: Who said gifts were only for other people? Treat yourself to a T-shirt with your spirit animal (a sloth on a jet ski, obviously), which you know will brighten up your day.
Go Create Something Glorious
Whether you’re commemorating an inside joke, designing a new wardrobe piece for your weirdest mate, or just feeling creative, our custom design tool is here to make your ideas real.
It’s easy. It’s fast. And it’s the most fun you’ll ever have creating a gift.
So grab your idea, no matter how random, petty, or poetic, and start designing. We’ll handle the printing, packing, and posting. You can sit back and wait for the “OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS” text.
Ready? Let’s make some chaos.
