Valentine's Day Guide 2023

I don't know if it's the cold temperatures that got me thinking about a warm night in by the fire. Or maybe it's because Valentine's Day is just around the corner! Looking for some great gift ideas for a loved one? A special friend? Or maybe even for your kiddos? Then you've come to the right place.

Let's Talk About Summer

One of my favorite parts of summer are the memories that are made with friends and family. From trips to the park to vacations here and there summer is always a big part of our year. It's something we start planning way in advance so we don't miss out on going places we really want to see. Another favorite part of planning for summer trips is getting some new gear to take with us. Whether it be accessories to make travel a bit easier or even a new swimsuit for the beach it's always fun getting something new to enjoy. Even when summer is over we still get to enjoy it all through the memories we've made and the gifts that will last a lifetime.

Father's Day is just around the corner!

Click here to read Love, Mrs. Mommy's Stamped Canvas review!

About Stamped Canvas:

Stamped Canvas was created by four moms, for all parents. And when we say all parents...we mean ALL parents. Before we were moms to our precious two legged babies, we were moms to our rambunctious four legged babies. Fur and human alike, our love was universal. Stamped Canvas was the result of failed attempts at arts and crafts, and a desire to capture early moments of life and love. So here's to the simplicity of stamping, the ease of a ready made canvas, and the love that makes it all come together. Life is messy; your memories don't have to be! Our kits come with everything you need to create your own sweet memento with your child or fur baby's actual footprint; pre-printed 8x8 canvas, ink pad, full directions and wipes for a quick and easy clean-up.

Custom gifts are my favorite!

I have to say out of all the gifts I purchase for family and friends custom gifts have to be my favorite to give. Not only do I get to use my personal photos, but I also get to tell them stories that go along with the photos so they can enjoy them too. And I can honestly say I've never had anyone complain about receiving a photo gift either. I like them for myself too because it's a great way to remember events and cherish the moments displayed in the photos. I recently made a photo blanket for myself and am so excited about how awesome it looks. I used photos of my family and can now sit back and enjoy thinking of the memories from each of them while I'm all toasty warm under my super soft Sherpa blanket.

When creating a photo gift such as the Sherpa Blanket I made you get to choose not only the photos to include, but how many you want to include. I didn't choose too many photos because I wanted them to be a little bigger and stand out more. Looking back I probably would have added just a few more than I did though after seeing just how big they are on my 60" x 80" throw. I could have done up to 80 photos if I wanted, but didn't want them so small that you couldn't tell what they were without being up close. The process of creating the blanket was actually as simple as picking the photos and placing them where I wanted on the blanket layout. If you're in a hurry or don't want to spend a lot of time with photo placement you can actually have them auto arranged for you. If you like you can even add text to the blanket to further customize it or add a date if your collage is specific to a day or year. The process is pretty much the same no matter what product you order, and once you've uploaded photos once they are there for future projects.

Buy it: You can customize and purchase your collage photo gifts right on the Collage.com website. Be sure to check out their deals section of their website for hot specials through out the year to save big!

There's still time for Christmas delivery if you're looking for that special gift too, so be sure to hurry on over to their website and check out their final deadline dates by product page.

Gift them a memory for a lifetime

I've always enjoyed painting...as long as there is a picture for me to use as a reference or numbers on a canvas to follow. I've just never been one to start from scratch with a blank canvas because I can't seem to choose what to paint. And I'll be honest I'm just not that creative. Thankfully there are places like Gifted Custom Art that will turn one of your personal photos into a paint-by-numbers canvas ready for you to paint at home. I was truly amazed when I saw how awesome my daughter's picture looked when it was transformed into a custom wrapped canvas. They were able to take everything out of the background and just focus the photo on my daughter which really was impressive. I had planned on painting it myself after it arrived, but when she saw me pull it out I could tell by the look on her face that she wanted to "paint herself". So I put it away and told her I just didn't have the extra time right now to paint it and am going to give it to her for Christmas as a surprise gift and let her paint it. I'm sure it will make her day and it will make mine when I get to hang up the picture that she painted.

Valentine's Day: Make your phone unique with a custom Case! #casetify

If you like to have a case on your phone that stands out, and want something that shows off you and yours then you'll definitely want to check out Casetify. I recently had the opportunity to create my own custom case and couldn't be happier with the results. I've actually gotten a ton of compliments since I put it on my phone. In just a few simple steps you can create a case of your own too! First you choose the model of phone you have, then you choose the case style you want, and finally the layout for your photos. After that you just drop in the photos from Instagram, Facebook, or directly from your computer. They even have a "stamps" section if you want to add a cute emoji or quote to your case. From there you save your case layout and place your order. It truly is as simple as it sounds.

Casetify offers custom cases for iPhone, iPad, Galaxy, and some other cell phone models too.  Plus they have lots of other great phone accessories you might want to check out too!

Buy it: You can create your own Casetify case on their website or with the Casetify App.

It may be too late to order for a Valentine's gift this weekend, but how cool would it be to make a case using photos from your actual Valentine's day/date/party?

Holiday Gift Guide: PhotoThrow Color Throw Blanket

I bet you have some really awesome photos on your computer just sitting there waiting for something to be done with them. I know I sure do. I take a lot of photos when we are on outings and when we have people over for cookouts and family dinners. And of course there are school activities and field trips, Girl Scouts, oh yeah and all the activities we do for holidays. Needless to say I have a bunch of photos and I'm sure several of them would make really nice photo gifts. One choice for a photo gift is a really cool Color Throw from PhotoThrow. The one shown in the photo above is The NEW Color Throw.

About The NEW Color Throw:
This new ColorThrow measures 40” x 58”, it’s softer, weighs less, and with more than 70,000 additional stitches, the new size ratio improves the resolution of your knitted image beyond anything you’ve seen before. The colors are brighter, more vivid and alive, plus you still have the option of personalizing them with names, messages or any other desired text. Machine wash and dry, and produced with the same quality standards you expect. This Throw is made using a special process that is also available in the SWEETHEART Throw format, and both will only be sold for a limited time.

I love that it's the perfect size to lay over the top of my husband's recliner. It's a little older and well, not quite as beautiful as it used to be. Toss on the throw and it looks great again! Then it's on display for everyone to see, and is convenient to use if he gets a little chilly in the evenings. The other thing I thought was pretty cool was that the throw actually makes us look a little thinner. I took that as an added bonus because it helps remind us that we've both put on a little extra and now we can see and remember how we want to look again.

Buy it: You can order custom photo throws online at http://photothrow.com. Make sure you enter code CT-40 for a really awesome deal. It makes the throw go from $90 down to $39.60!!

I'm gonna make mine a Collage.com One-Click Photo Book

Select photos of any size from Facebook, Instagram, Flickr, or your computer and they will instantly suggest a clean, professional layout that you can further customize.

With Collage.com all I have to do is upload my photos and let it start the book for me.
