We all want to feel special on our birthday. Sometimes it’s the little things that make us feel EXTRA special.
Like getting to use a personalized birthday plate while every else uses paper plates.
Kids will especially love this tradition. All year long, they will anticipate getting to eat a big slice of cake on their custom birthday plate.
Think of the fond childhood memories this fun tradition will create!
This perfect birthday gift can be used year after year to celebrate someone’s special day.
Simply put, my husband enjoys his rain gauge.
Randy is not only curious about how much it rains, but he also finds it useful to know how much to water the yard and flower beds.
In a previous post for Father’s Day, we purchased Randy a new E-Z Jumbo Rain Gauge to replace his father’s old gauge that eventually became weather worn.
Well… after three years that rain gauge stem broke while inserting it into the ground.
Instead of replacing it with the same brand, I found the World’s Coolest Rain Gauge that features interesting science behind it!
Archimedes of Syracuse, a Greek mathematician, physicist, engineer, inventor, and astronomer, discovered the principle of water displacement, and it is demonstrated in this unique copper rain gauge (aka pluviometer).
3D Pop Up Greeting Cards are so beautiful and mesmerizing, they are almost a gift in itself. And they’re definitely keepsakes!
When you open one of these cards, instead of seeing words, you see the card magically come to life as it POPS UP into a unique design. They are truly miniature works of paper art!
You can buy 3D Pop Up Greeting Cards in all sorts of designs for all sorts of occasions. Some of them are designed to hold a gift card.
Although, do you even need an occasion to send a 3D greeting card with a pop up dragon, a pop up pirate ship or a pop up rocket? Send them just because the cards are badass and you want to surprise someone!
We’ve all experienced closing an umbrella while getting in and out of a car. What happens? We get wet no matter how fast we can close it.
How about giving someone a better designed umbrella as a gift?
I just happened to come across the video below that shows how an inverted umbrella design folds the reverse way to prevent the splash of rain as you enter or exit your car.
As you can see, your car door only needs to be open a crack for you to be able to open and close your umbrella.
Umbrellas are wonderful to keep you dry while opened but what happens when you close them? They drip rain water all over the floor.
The cool feature of the inverted umbrella is that it folds upward leaving the rain water trapped in the inward folds rather than getting your car floor or any floor wet.
It’s designed to self-stand upside down so it will air dry instead of leaning up against a wall which prevents the mess of rain water all over the floor.
When my son, Axl, turned one year old, my father arrived to the birthday party with the most clever and thoughtful gift!
It didn’t come wrapped up with a big bow or in a gift bag with tissue paper like the other birthday gifts.
Because it actually wasn’t for my son…
It was for his parents – my husband and me. It was a gift card to a local restaurant with a handwritten message that read:
Happy Birthday from Axl
Thank you for having me!
A gift “from my son” to his parents so we could go on a date night. Talk about a thoughtful twist to a first birthday gift!
We all have our favorite childhood books or the ones we enjoyed reading aloud to our own children.
If you’re like me, you love certain titles so much you want other children to read them and fall in love with them too!
When thinking about what to give my best friend for her baby shower gift, I wanted it to be meaningful and special. I reflected on what things my two boys really liked when they were babies and also what things I really enjoyed as a new parent… Definitely books!
Certain books I’ve read to my boys more than 100 times so I decided to give her copies of the children’s books that were favorites in my own family.
I picked out a cute wooden crate and glued painted wooden letters that spelled MY FIRST LIBRARY.
For my birthday, my sister-in-law gave me a Betsey Johnson purse. Talk about a Purse with Pursonality! It’s definitely a conversation piece!
Everywhere I go, someone will comment, “Is that a smiley face?” I reply, “Yes, it is!” and we both share a wonderful, big smile that turns into laughter.
I’ve never had a purse make me so happy or random strangers! It’s an amazing feeling.
Women for various reasons have a love/hate relationship with their purses. Purses can be too small because many of us carry way to much stuff.
Or too big and we dig around for our ringing cell phone until the caller hangs up! Some purses have too many zippers and you can’t remember which pocket you placed your keys.
Since I’ve received my purse with pursonality, I’m over any trivial annoyance. It’s funny how things change when you have a different perspective. Continue Reading
A individual’s name is near and dear to its owner’s heart. For children, especially so since they love learning the letters that spell their name.
The authors of the Lostmy.name books figured that out and created a magical story based on the letters of a child’s name.
When a boy/girl wakes up to find his/her name missing, he/she must go on an adventure to find it. Every story is different since it is based on the letters in a child’s name. For example, my son Aiden’s book has him meeting an Aardvark, an Imp, a Dragon, an Elephant, and a Narwhal.
When creating a Lostmy.name personalized book to give as a gift, you can choose from the titles “The Little Boy Who Lost His Name” or “The Little Girl Who Lost Her Name.”
