06: Let's get personal

Personalized gifts and where your money goes.

As always, every item listed below is from a small business.

Everything feels bad this week! I don’t really have anything new to say about the election, but if you haven’t already, it’s time to get serious about who you’re giving your money to. We live in a country with a capitalist economy, and I think we should teach those who do not respect us what that can mean for them. Be mindful of who you give your hard-earned dollars to (as well as your attention.)

Anyways, today I’m covering personalized gifts. If there’s anything in particular you’re looking to gift this holiday season, DM me and I will find a small business that sells it.

Tina’s Stitchery Oval Name Patch

I just ordered a patch from this brand and the quality is great. They offer tons of color options, shapes, and fonts as well. Did I choose my dog’s name? Yes. Did he try to eat it just seconds after this photo was taken? Also yes.

World Famous Original Custom Mini Heart Patch

I also love these!

July Rose Jewelry Pendants

I love everything this brand creates, and for $40, they offer an engraving add-on for almost all of their pieces, so you can personalize any of their jewelry which is very cool.

Studebaker Metals Lovestruck Pin

This pin is so charming! I think it would make a really sweet wedding gift, or even a cool accessory for your wedding day.

Suma Jewelry Co. Column Signet Ring

This a cool alternative to the usual signet shape. You have a few choices of fonts for personalization too.

I’ll leave you with this:
