Creative and Personal Wedding Gifts!

This post is brought to you by Target, but all opinions and content are my own. Follow along with #TargetWedding on Twitter and discover how to "Be Yourself, Together".

Get inspired with Target's Wedding Registry! When looking for the perfect wedding gift, I like to take traditional gifts from the couple's wedding registry, and make them unforgettable. Sure. Gifting towels is very nice, but it isn't very creative or memorable. Have fun and use your imagination! As you can see below, I've taken the gift of beautiful bath towels to a whole new level with a towel warmer. Oooooh. The new bride and groom will enjoy wrapping themselves in warmth when they step out of the shower. Sooooo comfy! And best of all, they will both enjoy it!

It's Not Too Late For The Perfect New Year's Eve Dress!



Dazzling New Year's Eve Dresses!

Dazzle your date in a classy and elegant New Year's dress and a pop of sparkle on the lobes. Choose a dress that you feel comfortable wearing. There's nothing worse than pulling up your dress all night or wearing something too tight and feeling self conscious. Also, don't forget to wear a comfortable shoe! A shiny patent platform pump adds both height and comfort, so you can dance the night away in style.

    Hang Your Precious Posters & Artwork!

    Do you have a place in your attic or closet where you keep rolled up posters and artwork from the kids? I wish I were organized enough to have them all in one place. Some are under the kids' beds, in closets, and who knows where else. I have some artwork from the kids that are too large for their memory box, but I wouldn't even think to part with those precious memories. So, this coming year, I've made a New Year's resolution to hang these amazing pieces of art up on my walls. Houzz has a variety of eclectic ideas on how you can add artwork and posters into your home decor (see photo above).

    A few weeks ago, my son purchased a video game and received a poster with it, I know that poster is somewhere in his closet. He has commented to me a few times how cool the poster is and how much he likes it. I know he would be thrilled to see it up on his bedroom wall. If I have the poster framed, he would be happy to have his favorite video game poster on the wall and I would feel like I'm starting the year off with a bang and getting organized. Keeping your space organized and clutter-free is practicing good Feng Shui and according to The Social Rules, it is very important in keeping a good energy flow in your home.

    After doing some research on poster and artwork framing, I found that posterframedepot.com has bulk packs with a flat rate shipping fee of $9.95 on any size order! Woohoo! That means I can frame several posters and get them shipped for one low price!  I can't wait to get started. Now, if you really want to give a framed poster as a gift for Christmas and live in the mid-west to the east coast, you just might be able to have it done. posterframedepot.com is still offering delivery in time for Christmas. to some areas. Check the "Christmas Delivery" map to see if your area is still accepting orders for Christmas delivery. 

    I'm already inspired just thinking of all the posters and artwork I can have framed and up on the walls in the new year! My gallery awaits! How about yours?
