Whimsy & Spice lives up to its name. Based out of Brooklyn, NY, and run by husband and wife team, Mark Sopchak (pastry chef extraordinaire) and Jenna Park (marketer, packaging and we...
You've just gotta love high school sweethearts! Skylar and Shane have been together for ten years and their love story started at a school dance (note the Tom Petty coolness of that). Th...
I love Claire Pettibone! Over the last several years, she has definitely become one of my favorite bridal designers because of the way she puts a modern twist on vintage romance. So, whe...
There are times when you just have to go with what’s given to you and, dear readers, this is one of those times. I had another post all ready for you for this afternoon when this little ditty came through my inbox (via the geniuses at Thrilllist) and I had to share it with you immediately. Pretty tiaras can wait until Monday; this feels like the Friday afternoon treat that’ll get you through to the weekend.
Gift Rapped is a service that creates personalized raps for you (I’ll just give you a second for the awesomeness of this service to sink in). You send them suggestions, inside jokes, and a set of photos; they send you back a personalized rap in video form that you can use to impress your loved one.
And believe me, I know I have a weakness for all things over-the-top and dramatic, but…
The holidays are coming up fast (but you don’t need me tell you that, do you?) and one of the more meaningful gifts you can give your new husband/wife is something that commemorates the Big Day. And take it from me, your first holiday together is a great time to do it. The wedding and all of the surrounding excitement is still fresh in your mind; your probably still know where your wedding photos are; heck, you probably still look like the people in your wedding photos (can you tell I didn’t take my own advice, opting instead for good intentions?).
These customized canvas art pieces from esty seller GeeZees may be just the thing. She has several options available, but my favorites are the ones that feature your wedding vows (because I don’t know about you but mine passed in a blur…). Hanging up in…
I don’t know about you but, personally, I find buying a meaningful gift for the men in my life very, very difficult. It seems like you either go the X-Box style route and get something fun but not particularly meaningful or you go the photo album route and do something very meaningful but that doesn’t get used every day. Throw in the pressure of a wedding or anniversary and suddenly my head is spinning.
Well, today, my dear readers, all of our problems are solved! May I introduce you to the perfect wedding or anniversary gift? Fun, meaningful and useful, the Everyday Special from Mr. Jones Watches is a true triple whammy! (Plus, it’s killer-looking.)
On first glance, it looks like just a nice looking watch. But upon closer inspection, you will notice that the hands actually feature a date. A very special date. Your wedding date, perhaps?…
I can’t believe I’m about to say this but isn’t this the prettiest pig you’ve ever seen? When I saw these pigs at Renegade Craft Fair, my immediate thought was, “What a guest book!” Instead of putting out the usual book and asking guests to sign it, wouldn’t it be so fun to have friends and family leave you advice or share their dreams for the two of you? Or even leave you a Polaroid snapshot of themselves at your wedding? Then in a year, or ten (depending on how patient you are) you can crack open the piggie and get a little taste of your wedding all over again.
And these are definitely a keepsake made with love. Jessica from Speechless Studios hand-crafts each memory bank in slip-cast ceramic with a white glaze and offers two options – one with a cork hole so you…
