# Viral Christmas Cheer ElfYourself By Bianca | Published 2007-12-08 | Special Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elfyourself References: [elfyourself](http://www.elfyourself.com/) & [elfyourself](http://www.elfyourself.com/) Why don't you go [ElfYourself](http://www.elfyourself.com)? Personalized gifts and greetings like these are just way too much fun! Even if you're too shy to turn yourself into an elf by putting your own mug on a dancing holiday cartoon, you can be just as amused watching your friends to a merry jig on your screen with these viral e-greetings from OfficeMax. You can also add a personalized voice greeting! To customize a prancing elf, simply upload the silliest facial shots of you and your crew, and let the site append them to the forest freen velvet-suited elf bodies. When else are you going to get a chance to indulge your secret desire to wear candy cane socks and a pointy little hat? ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.3/10 - Popularity: 90% | Activity: 91% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Special](https://www.trendhunter.com/special) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Personalized E-greetings:** The trend of personalized e-greetings is growing, providing opportunities for businesses to create unique and interactive marketing campaigns. - **DIY Digital Gifts:** The rise of easy-to-use digital tools for customization is creating a new market for DIY digital gifts for every occasion. - **Augmented Reality Gifting:** As AR technology advances, businesses have the opportunity to create interactive and immersive gifting experiences. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Retail:** Retailers can leverage the trend of personalized e-greetings and DIY digital gifts to increase online sales and customer engagement. - **Entertainment:** The growing popularity of personalized and innovative gifts provides opportunities for entertainment companies to create unique experiences and merchandise. - **Digital Advertising:** Augmented reality offers new opportunities for digital advertising, as businesses can create interactive and immersive ad experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Personalized Holiday Videos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/naughty-or-nice-video.md) - [AI-Powered Digital Gifting Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magical-moments.md) - [Virtual Holiday Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wishfultree.md) - [Personalized Holiday Audios](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/santas-voice-message.md) - [Personalized Video Cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/video-cards.md) - [Festive Elvish Clogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elf-classic-clog.md) - [Interactive Gift Tags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interactive-gift-tag.md) - [Personalized Video Greeting Cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/video-greeting-cards.md) - [AI-Generated Holiday Messages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/personalized-communication-from-santa.md)
