My Secret to Baby Gift Giving…

I am often asked, what do you get someone who has just had a new baby and you’re not “close” with them but feel you need to acknowledge the birth of their new baby?

This is a tough thing for everyone but, I am sneaky. Being sneaky not only helps you out tremendously, but when people get their gift they always are amazed that your gift matches their new babies room and you don’t even know them. What do I do? I go to the “Babies R Us” website and I search their name under the baby registry. I’ve never known anyone that hasn’t registered there. I browse their registry looking for the baby bedding, which is ALWAYS there. Once I find the baby bedding I know exactly the colors of the babies room, I know they decorated in sports or butterflies or monkeys. So now all I have to do is personalize a blanket with those colors and maybe a similar design!

Simply as that! Now let’s keep this between us;)

Favorite Gifts #12 – Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day always brings a lot of stress for me. My mother, as most do, has everything she really needs. If she doesn’t have what she needs she just goes and buys it herself. She rarely will drop hints and always says “I don’t need anything” or “don’t spend any money on me”. So what do you do in this situation? Well…

The gift I always recommend to others are family tree blankets. I’ve given them to my grandmother, my mother-in-law and my own mother. Anyone that has given one has always said that they were very appreciated and are always the source of conversation when anyone sees it in the house. Below are examples of some of our family tree blankets. Family tree blankets depending on how many names you need can add up in cost quickly. We suggest giving them from a group of people to help make them an affordable gift that will be cherished for many years to come.

The Family Personalized Blanket, Item #2525 is one of my favorites. It allows you to group families onto different branches. It also has a dedicated area for the name of the mother, father, year of marriage or another date and the family name. http://www.personalizedpresents.com/the-family-personalized-blanket.html

Proud & Strong Personalized Family Afghan Item #4258 is another popular choice. In the photo below you can see how we number the apples so that you can very clearly identify which name you want in any location. Some people group according to families, some start at the top and go down the tree based on age and others randomly place names. There is no wrong or right way to do it and they all turn out beautiful. http://www.personalizedpresents.com/proud-and-strong-personalized-family-afghan.html
