As technology advances rapidly, knowledge of related topics will become more and more important. Most parents and professionals already know that.

    If you’ve ever travelled at Christmas then you have also undoubtedly travelled with Christmas gifts too.

    Charm Her With Valentine’s Day Jewelry

    January 28, 2019 / 23 Comments

    I’m a gal who loves jewelry. Jewelry and flowers – these are the way to my heart. Valentine’s Day jewelry is a winning gift every time in my opinion. Some of my favourite gifts have been charms for my bracelets. Necklaces and earrings always work for me too. For me, the beauty of a new piece of jewelry lies in the memory or emotion attached to it. Sometimes that’s as simple as recalling how happy and loved you felt when your kids, or your partner, gave you that new necklace or pair of earrings. Every time you put it on, you remember where you were and how it felt to receive that…

    Ah Tweens. That comical challenging stage between childhood and the teen years. When you can almost see what’s about to come, but still there are many days when they happily slip back into their childish pursuits.

    Merry Christmas! With the snow on the ground, its beginning to feel a lot like Christmas finally. There are several pretty gift tag printables here on the site, and on Pinterest too, should you need any to decorate your gifts this season. These silver and gold Christmas gift tags are bound to look gorgeous on any of the presents you have to give this season.   Are you a theme decorator at Christmas? Blue and white? Red and Green?
