Cute and Personalized Kids T-Shirts

January 19, 2010 By

I came across a neat site awhile back, Hopscotch Tees. They have the cutest personalized kid’s t-shirts and they are so simple to order. That is what I love: cute, personalized, and at the click of a button. I am a firm believer that gifts are more special and thoughtful when they are personalized and I must admit, I’m a softy for them (My husband seems to forget that!) It shows the gift-giver was thoughtful and took their time, rather than running to the store and picking out the first thing they see.

With graphics like cupcakes and fishing lures, an infant shirt from Hopscotch Tees would make any new mother smile.  I absolutely love cupcakes and since I don’t have a girl (but that cupcake shirt is seriously making me contemplate trying for a girl…  :) ) I ordered it for my 3 year old cousin.

Everything is so darn cute, the graphics, the personalization, and the packaging. Your order even comes with the cutest, colorful lollipop. With my new job, I have been thinking a lot about businesses and “brands” and Hopscotch Tees is a perfect example of someone who knows their niche and “brand”. They are the company you want to go back and buy from because they’ve “got it all together.” The shirts are easy to order and personalize, the customer service is great, prices are reasonable and they have a unique product.

Canvas Keepsakes and Modern Custom Printing

December 14, 2009 By

erincondrencalendarerincondren.com makes me happy.

Seriously, Just go to her site.

You’ll see.

Everything is so colorful and cute and just puts me in a good mood… although I would be in a better mood if I was able to purchase every single item on there! Erin has everything picture perfect, right down to the packaging she sends your custom item in. With all of that attention to detail, you know you are going to get top notch quality, and that is exactly what I experienced when erincondren.com sent me this super cute personalized calendar.

During my time working for a photographer, I became familiar with printing quality and color. I am extremely impressed with the vivid colors on each page of the calendar as well as the thickness of the paper. I was expecting a small, thin calendar… but this is huge! (The perfect size for the fridge) And only $30? What a find!

I am also oh-so-totally-in love with the canvas keepsake prints. You can find a selection of canvas prints at erincondren.com, but to upload your own photos, Erin’s exclusive collection can be found at chiccanvas.com. The great thing about canvas prints versus regular prints, is that you don’t need a frame. The erin condren collection takes that to the next level and utilizes the sides of the canvas for personalization. You can personalize with a color scheme or words. I love the idea of having the event and date on the side of the canvas like below.

Be sure to check out all of Erin’s other stylish items like: address labels, gift labels, book plates, stationery and more.

The Perfect Gifts for Graduates, Father’s Day, Birthdays and More

June 1, 2009 By

I love Things Remembered.  TJ and I bought our groomsmen and father’s gifts there for our wedding a few years back.  I think personalization makes a gift special and shows the person you put thought into it.  With all the graduations, weddings, and father’s day coming up, you should check out Things Remembered.   They have an online website as well as a store probably near you.  Below is a personalized flash drive… a great gift for a high school graduate.  My husband and I are currently in college…(15 credits to go for me! yay!) and we use flash drives all the time.  You can personalize it with their name and number.

Another neat gadget for a graduate or father is a personalized mouse.  Keep your Dad’s day bright at work with a special message or send a personalized mouse along with your new graduate to college.

 A money clip is popular among Dads.  I know my Dad uses one.  Replace his plain old money clip with a brand new personalized one!For the Mom or Grandma in your life, Things Remembered’s new line of Charms is a must have.  How cool would it be to add charms to a chain that represent your mother, along with personalization.  The charm bracelet could become a family heirloom!  If you don’t know what to get your Mother or Grandmother for their birthday’s, check out the charm line and find ones that fit their personalities.  The key to a great gift is personalization!
