Functional Jewelry

Traditionally in the old generation jewels are used as gifts to royalties, dignitaries and for bride-to-be. The sparkling pieces of precious stones are one of the most desired gifts and dowries when a girl is asked for engagement. This tradition is passed through many generations and until now in our modern times precious jewels in several forms like necklaces, rings and bracelets are used to give to special someone on special occasions. Time changes but even in the height of this high-technology generation the practice of giving jewels remains the best form of showing your care and importance to a special someone. Engagement ring is still the most in-demand item to give your loved one when you’re asking her to marry you. 

Well now it’s not only known gifts, engagement or dowries but for functional usage as well. As we’re so much aware that jewels are so fashionable there are also those that can be used as a therapy for some illnesses. I also came to know about customised rings for career and occupation like police rings or the Joy Jewelers firefighter jewelry which is not only stylish but represents a certain uniqueness of its kind just like when firefighter fights to save people and properties from fire. Things are different nowadays and in this modern generation you’ll get more choices.

Birthday Gift for My Kid

Now that Josh’ birthday is just a few weeks away I’m thinking of how can I make him happy on his special day. I’m planning to invite his classmates and let them enjoy the day on our house eating, chatting and playing with Minecraft theme. For the gift I promised him a new keyboard even though I didn’t enroll him in music class this year. He’s graduating from primary school and he has plenty of school activities. He has recently joined the Publication club and I was relieved he didn’t have Saturday classes. 

Anyway with or without music class he still practice his musical pieces at home continuing what he learned from last year’s keyboard class plus little techniques from his sister Gen. The keyboard I was planning to buy has a stand already, not as beautiful as Yamaha P105 but nice enough to complement his musical instrument. Best thing about the package is the free acoustic guitar that they will give when you purchased the keyboard with stand and songbook. Good promo for the store and nice gift for my big boy.

5 Gift Ideas for Your Crafty Kids

Kids of all ages love to make things. Whether they are using remnants or building blocks, children take absolute delight in creating something. They get so much satisfaction and excitement from their finished project. Imagination and expression is a very important aspect of a child’s development. By expressing themselves creatively, they will attain a sense of achievement. Gifts made by children are something that will be greatly appreciated and treasured.

Calendar

Use a rigid piece of cardboard and attach a 12 month calendar to the lower half. Then get your child to draw a picture around the calendar. Attach a loop for hanging the calendar. This is a great Christmas present.

Bath salts

Recycle a nice glass jar. Decorate the lid with stickers or paint. To make bath salts, add food colouring and essential oil or perfume to Epsom salts. Mix well to distribute colour and spread mixture out on a sheet of baking or wax paper to dry for a couple of hours. Make enough to fill the jar. Tie a ribbon around the jar and you have a great gift of bath salts.

Bookmarks

Take a length of ribbon a bit longer than a book page. Knot at each end of the ribbon, beads, buttons or charms. This is a great way to mark a page of a book.

Hand prints

Paint the palm side of your child’s hand in a bright non-toxic colour and then press the hand firmly onto a paper plate. Let the paint dry completely. Attach a loop to the top of the plate for hanging and the outer edge or bottom of the plate can also be decorated with ribbon. With permanent marker, you may like to write the date and child’s name on the plate.

Love Box

This is a great present for grandparents, parents or aunts and uncles. Choose a tin, jar or box with a lid. Decorate the outside and glue a small picture of your child on the lid. Use the computer or handwrite sayings relevant to the person receiving the gift. They can be things like ‘I love it when you visit’ or ‘I love you reading stories to me’. Cut into strips and fold roughly and place in a decorated container. Small hand drawn pictures or small photos can also be added. Make sure to include one strip of paper with the date that this gift was made. These boxes will create many happy memories. 

Making crafts is a hobby started young that will take you into adulthood. As your age progresses, so will your skills. Starting crafty activities at a young age will teach children how to use glue, scissors and will encourage their creative mind. Crafty kids would also enjoy having their own self inking stamps. Custom rubber stamps can be ordered online from websites such as Vistaprint, and you can have them personalized with your child’s name or for younger children, stamps of their favourite things, such as flowers or shapes, will make it easier for them to do crafty activities.

Gifts for Sister

I’ve been thinking about my gift for my little sister which is a little late now but I just want to be sure that my gift would be just what she needs. She’s my only sister and every birthday that she has I always want to give the best I could afford. She’s not that choosy but I’m thinking of a nice gift that she didn’t have for now like this pretty carrera tag heuer I found online or other things that she’s fond of. I’m dropping by tomorrow to shopping square that we love buying our clothes and shoes from. I remember her spotting the black cardigan she will use when we go to Baguio so probably I’ll buy one of those and add some nice accessories too. When you really think of gift ideas to your loved ones your mind will fly to various kinds of possibilities and it’s worth all the effort and cost.

Kids’ Sweet Treats

The kids are asking me about our Father’s Day celebration and I laughed at them because they’re the ones who are very excited about the occasion and you know why? Because I have collection of vouchers and gift cheques on food stores usually cakes and pizzas and they want to claim them all. Last week we had two boxes of Cellos Doughnuts and they enjoyed every bit of it. I can say that it has the quality of expensive doughnuts and love their presentation and the looks. 

Anyway we’re thinking of nice gift for their daddy and some foods for the occasion say a treat like Sharis Berries as the husband has sweet tooth and he’ll surely love the taste. Just wondering if he wants it dark or white as I would want dark one. We all love berries and if dipped in choco and other goodies it would so yummy. Celebrating Father’s special day would be sweeter with this kind of treat. Nice gift for Father’s Day don’t you think?

Personalized Food Gifts

I’ve been thinking of making my own sweet and delicious desserts and delicacies for gifts to my friends but when I count the days that I’m free before our vacation I backed out. Anyway I still have to clean my set of kitchen utensils for making my desserts because I didn’t used it for months now. I have a separate kitchen items for making my sweet delicacies like my molds, baking pans, my ever reliable sieving utensil to sift my flour, rolling pin, scale and a lot more.

Craft and Gift Items

I’ve been rushing about my gifts for school party and some small giveaways last week when I saw a site that offers beads, charms, jewelry and craft supplies. All are nice, and cute and very flexible if you want to create your own craft or gifts. They also have this variety of stamps to choose from like different shape punch for stamping metal blanks. I love the heart shape as usual as I always go for heart-inspired bracelets, stamps and other things. Well I also noticed the 4-leaf clover design which is not ordinary for me. This month is a very busy month for me and I have to rush things up because we’re going on vacation fellowship in Baguio end of this week.

Gifts For Special Men

My friend asked me to give her ideas on what to give her husband on their 12th wedding anniversary which is approaching this last week of October. Since they’re both working abroad we only communicate online and she’s asking me to help her find the best gifts for men to choose from. She wants to surprise her husband but they’re always together even at work so we’ll be working hand in hand to order it online.

Oh well it’s actually an easy task because there are many online sites where you can find the best and unique gifts for your special loved ones especially our beloved partner in life. For the men there are wide varieties of choices for them like watches, bags, car gadgets, accessories case and a lot more as the gift would depend on their preferences and hobbies.

Gift Ideas for My Siblings

I’ve been thinking about my siblings’ birthday and they’re just two if you must know. I have one brother and one sister which I thought in the past very few compared to my other friends’ siblings. They said that we’re perfect in numbers just like what you will see in the nursery books where there’s an elder brother, an elder sister and the youngest kid. We have harmony in our birthdates we have every other month birthdays starting in August and ending on December. We’re three kids in the family and we have 3-year gap each which you might say very organized and planned but it’s really a coincidence that we have 3-year difference in age.

Anyway what I’m thinking now is my gift for them on their coming birthdays and been searching the net for some accessories for ladies and men like bulova watches, bags, shoes or their favorite type of clothing. It’s much easier to think of gift for my younger sister as we have more or less the same penchant for things except that she has more class in taste lol! She goes for more trends in fashion while I opt for simple things. I prefer gadgets than women’s accessories while she fancies accessories. If I have more financial blessing this month I want to give her what she really wishes for her birthday as I’m her only sister who knows her wants the most.

Promise Ring

Every time I see the ring on my finger I remember how Ed and I have vowed our promise on our wedding day. Even before we got married we already said our vows that we will love each other come what may but the ring has symbolized the strength of our promise and our love. As our officiating Pastor said when we slipped the ring on each other’s finger that the circle shape of the ring symbolizes infinity meaning endless and boundless love.

And so love should be like that between couples, their love should see them through the storms of life and in every trial that they will meet along the way. Glad to find more about promise ring and how its meaning became the promise of one’s love or loyalty in makemypromisering.com. I love reading about love, marriage, symbolism of ring and everything about the promise ring. I even love seeing several beautiful rings which can also be your choice of promise ring to your loved ones.

Gifts for Mom

I’m super busy with having online and offline jobs but don’t get me wrong I’m not complaining because it’s what I want for now. I’m enjoying my work although I’m deprived of afternoon siesta and some other privileges like being with my family at home, having my ‘Me’ time, having workout sessions and waking up in my chosen hour. Well I’m an early riser anyway so it’s not really hard for me to go back to office employment. I just miss hubby and kids especially now that they’re all on school vacation. I enjoyed it last month but now I’ve started a full time schedule 5 days a week. 

Now that Mother’s day is approaching I’m surprised that my kids are the ones so excited about it. My sister promised them something on the weekend, something like a small celebration of the occasion dedicated for Moms and they’re happily discussing it this morning. Well if they’re thinking of gifts for me I also want to decide on my gift for Mom. I’ve visited some nice online sites and found plenty of gift ideas for Mom like custom photo frames, mugs, shirts, canvas, jars and a lot more. Just looking at the choices makes me want to buy some of them for my Mom. Well since it’s only three days before the occasion I should decide now which one I like best. The problem is I love them all.
