Searching For A Unique Gift – Baubles & Bling

By Jan Carroll

Christmas Gift Countdown Day Four….

I must admit that this is one of my favorite pages. I love jewelry. If I could I would wear more jewelry than Johnny Depp (and I bet he would love the great personally picked selection we offer!)

Here you can find jewelry pieces for both woman and men. The jewelry I have selected range from traditional to ‘way out there’. A great selection that to fit all tastes and all budgets.

Here is a montage illustrating just a small sampling of the jewelry we offer. Ones I know anyone on your Christmas list will love.

For woman check it out here

For men check it out here

If she will only wear diamonds check this out here

Some say that Diamonds are a girl’s best friend but I say bling on the bling baby. Any bling is good bling and throw in a few baubles too.

Happy Shopping!

Of course we have sharp looking clothes, accessories, jewelry galore and pretty much everything for even the hardest to buy for woman… But another category we have is ‘Fun’ and as Cindy Lauper once wrote in song, “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun”.

Avant-garde Gifts For The Wild & Wooly

By Jan Carroll

Avant-garde describes styles that are cutting edge, progressive, ultramodern, bizarre, extravagant or simply hot. Sometimes controversial but always evocative, they push the boundaries of generally accepted standards of fashion and home decor, and oh how we love that!

Think of Lady Gaga outrageous outfits, or Jaden Smith (who calls his style ‘gender fluid fashion’).

Fashion, home furniture and decor leads the way when you are looking for a present that is:

experimental and innovative
pushing the boundaries of what is accepted as the norm or the status quo
a piece of art guaranteed to stimulate conversation as well their environment
for someone as outside-the-box as the furniture or décor they surround themselves with

Does she love ahead-of-the-times fashions? Does he love groundbreaking fashions. Do they love trend-setting home furnishings?

Avant-garde creativity, whether fashion or home decor is a wonderful present to give someone who loves the wild side, something that is different and as unorthodox they are. Avant-garde transcends fashion, floats above it, mocks it and occupies a space in its own continuum.

It will never be out-of-fashion because it’s never in fashion.

Innovative, weird, unorthodox, unconventional, bizarre, push the boundaries, sublime, wildly imaginative, ground-breaking styles… however you want to describe them; they are exactly right for a certain type of person and we all know at least one.

Abandon the mundane and give them the gift of something truly unique and exceptional. They will love you for it!

We have a great selection of avant-garde goodies here

New styles are added weekly!

A Ring Can Make An Incredible Fashion Statement

By Jan Carroll

Clothing and shoes/boots are what we tend to think of when we hear the word “fashion”. But when a woman wants to make a ‘fashion statement’ she looks for that and more.

A few examples are a scarf, belt and jewelry.

With jewelry, woman tend to look at earrings, a necklace or a bracelet to enhance her fashion statement. Certainly there are so many wild styles these days that she can change her look just by changing one or all of them. But even more than that…

A ring can be one of the most important addition to her fashion statement.

Now some of you will say that you knew that about rings already. Yes, cocktail rings have been around a long time. I’m also not forgetting engagement rings which do make a fashion statement and more, of course. What I am talking about is beyond a cocktail ring, and these could even be the ‘new’ engagement ring rage, who knows!

Which brings me to the incredible rings I have found that I want to tell you about.

These rings are not only unique and incredibly unusual but cover a wide range such as stackable rings, diamond fashion rings, eclectic gemstone rings, trendsetting rings, vintage rings, and so many more outstanding styles. Stunning rings from all over the world.

Fashion rings that give her endless possibilities to flash a bit of bling.

On their own they stand up and say ‘look at me’, while a ring on ever finger is screaming ‘check these out’. Anyone that sees one, or more, of these rings on her would go ‘WOW’.

Give her the gift of a unique or unusual ring. She will be thrilled to wear it and show it off. Her friends will be envious!

Pick A Gift – Any Gift

By Jan Carroll

I was thinking tonight of what it feels like when you are looking for a gift for someone who is hard to buy for, or for someone difficult to please. It is like the magician who says “pick a card – any card”. If you don’t know what you are looking for that is exactly what it feels like. A trick.

Well I know that you don’t want to ‘pick a gift – any gift’, not for these folks. So let tell you of some of the great items you can find at our site.

For him – how about a Flavor Enhancing Home Beer Frother. Unlocks the flavor by producing flavor-enhancing foam like draft – check it out here

For her – how about a .54 ct. t.w. DIAMOND Bypass SWIRL RING in 14kt White Gold – she will love this – check it out here

For him or her – how about a Hand-Carved Wooden Book/Tablet Easel, so unique – have a look here

Still not unusual enough? How about a R2D2 Talking Pizza Cutter – yes you heard me right have a look here

As BTO sang “You Aint Seen Nothing Yet”

So don’t just ‘pick a gift – any gift’ – pick the perfect unique one for your special someone.

Artisan Gifts Are Unique In The True Sense Of The Word

By Jan Carroll

Why do I say that – because they are made by artists in many types of forms, styles and different media.

Even if they make more than one of a design, because of the way they create their work, each one turns out slightly different and is actually one of a kind!

Did you know that you can find artisan gifts in all creative categories, not only crafts, which most people think when they think of artisan items. In fact you will also find exquisite handmade jewelry, clothing where every step of process from dying to tailoring is done by the artist. The same for furniture, home decor and more.

I never considered myself an artist, though I did needlework, knitting and for over a decade have created web sites.

I have come to understand that art comes in many forms and anything that is created by an individual can be art.

It’s not the type of item that determines whether it is art, it’s the talent, creativity, level of craftsmanship and finally the love they pour into it that elevates a craft to art. Whether it is appreciated by one, or many, it really doesn’t matter when it comes down to the fact that it is art.

So if you are looking for unique, this is it.

Also, when you buy an artisan piece you will also be supporting the artist and their craft, so in many ways you are paying it forward. Helping artists in countries all over the world continue to work on their craft and bring beautiful items to us.
