Turning 18 deserves its own front page. Personalise a vintage-style Australian newspaper from their exact birth year — the milestone birthday gift they'll actually keep.

Eighteen is the one birthday everyone remembers — the shift from kid to adult, first vote, first proper night out, the birthday where "well, you're an adult now" finally applies. It's a big one to get right, and a gift card doesn't really cut it.

Our 18th birthday newspaper recreates the actual front page from their birth year, filled with the real headlines, prices, and pop culture that were making news the week they arrived. Add their name into the headline, a photo, and a short personal message, and it becomes something they'll genuinely want to hang on the wall — not just something they open and forget.

Whether it's for a daughter, son, godchild, niece, nephew, or best mate turning 18, it's a keepsake gift that says a lot more than "happy birthday."

  • Built around real Australian news, prices and headlines from their exact birth year

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the questions we hear most about our personalised prints.

What format do I receive my print in?

Your design is delivered as a high-resolution digital file (JPEG), ready to print at home, at a local print shop, or through our optional Print & Frame service. Framed orders arrive ready to hang.

How long does personalisation and delivery take?

Digital files are typically ready the next business day after your order confirmation. Framed prints include additional production and shipping time — see the estimated delivery date at checkout for your postcode.

What print sizes and framing options are available?

Digital files can be printed at A4, A3 or A2. Framed prints are available in A3 with a matte black or oak frame.

Can I preview my design before it's finalised?

Yes — you'll receive a digital proof to review before your final artwork is printed, so you can check names, dates and details are correct.

Can I make changes after I've ordered?

Minor text corrections can be made at the proofing stage at no extra cost. For changes after a proof has been approved, contact us as soon as possible and we'll do our best to accommodate.
