    Pretty Personalized Jewelry From Onecklace #TMMGG16

    What’s in a name? Well, a lot actually. Your name is tied to your identity. You hear it or read it probably hundreds of times a week. Paula seems like a fairly common name, but honestly growing up I was rarely able to find my name on things like personalized jewelry. My girls know this well. They both have fairly unique names that are not available on the kind of products you find in catalogues. That’s kind of why I love Onecklace. They have the prettiest silver and gold pieces that you can make personalized jewelry out of and give…

    Christmas Guide to Cover Everyone on Your List

    We could all use a bit of help figuring out what to gift this time of year. A Christmas guide is a useful tool. With so many people on our respective lists and so many different interests, it can be hard to get the right gifts for everyone. It seems that every year, we fall more and more into the “gift card rut,” that place where we say, “You can’t go wrong with a gift card.” While gift cards are great to receive, it’s always nice to give a physical gift. This Christmas guide features companies than span the gifting spectrum to…

Their Playmobil Advent Calendars are every bit as amazing and unique as their toy sets. There are several options, from Christmas on The Farm to Christmas in…
