 This necklace is one of my absolute favorite finds. I can't believe how inexpensive it is and the fact that you can personalize it.
Show your love with this My Heart Belongs In... Necklace from Brickyard Buffalo for only $14.99.
This is a savings of 50% from the original price of $30.00, but DON'T WAIT! You only have 3 and a half days to order it before the deal is gone.
 All you guys out there, "LISTEN UP!" and ladies, this is for you too if your significant other doesn't know what to get you for Valentine's Day, you can drop them a little hint with this gift.
Ultimately, there's no woman that's going to argue getting jewelry for Valentine's Day or any day for that matter, but this takes it to a whole other level with how personalized, special, and unique this gift is.
It is on the pricier side, but it's so worth it. It's a Signature/Handwriting Bracelet that you can get personalized to say a name or whatever you'd like it to (to an extent), and in the handwriting of your choice. You just send them a picture or email of the handwriting you'd like to use, written in whatever you'd like it to say. You can find this awesome gift on Etsy and you can get the bracelet in 14K or 18K gold or white gold.
Order now before they get backed up for Valentine's Day, and it generally takes 7 to 10 business days before it's ready to ship since it is a handmade/personalized item.
Make this a Valentine's Day to remember!
Ladies, wedding season is quickly approaching and for all of you brides and future brides out there, it's never too early to figure out what to get your bridesmaids.
I did this for all of my bridesmaid and was so pleased with the look in the end. It turned out great in pictures. Not to mention, we got lots of compliments at the salon.
I ended up getting each of the girls a men's button down shirt with their initials monogrammed onto the pocket. I stuck to my colors and got all of the girls a pink shirt, and then a white shirt for myself. A great place to find a color you'd like, for cheap, is Kohl's (Other great reasons for going to Kohl's is they were also doing $10 in Kohl's cash for every $50 when I bought these and you might be able to get 30% off if you have a Kohl's card). As for sizing, I just asked all the girls what their shirt size was, and then I went down a size since it's in mens, and if they were already a small, just go with small since they typically don't make extra small in mens. (Also, you could do robes instead of shirts, but that would be a bit more expensive.) Once I got the shirts, I took them to a local embroidery place. I recommend putting post-its on each shirt with the initials so the shop knows which shirt/size goes with which initials. For the thread, I did my own shirt with pink thread and the girls with white.
Overall, I was very pleased with how these turned out and you can see for yourself below. We all had them on getting our hair and makeup done. I had all the girls pair the shirts with black leggings/pants because I figured they'd all have this, and it was perfect! I wouldn't have changed a thing about this gift and the girls seemed to love them too!
 Unfortunately, and understandably, a lot of stores aren't open today. This gift will only work if you're planning on celebrating Christmas this weekend. You'll have to wait to go out and get the materials tomorrow.

I hope everybody had a very Merry Christmas and enjoyed the 25 days of wearable, handmade gifts!
 Merry Christmas Eve! Now if you're a last minute shopper and need to get that final gift for your mom, sister, aunt, or friend, here you go! This is quick, easy, and of course, wearable.
Have it done by today and they could even wear it tonight. So chic, vintage, elegant, and pretty! Just a few of my favorite things.

 This pendant would be perfect for any family member, especially if you pair it with a little personalized note about family.

 Here's something different that I haven't had as one of the 25 days of gifts yet. It's a belt, or if you want to do it on a smaller scale, you could make it into a headband. Also, you could do as many or as few flowers as you want.
This project requires little expertise in sewing and it doesn't require that many materials. Always remember... you can change up the color to whatever you'd like. In addition, you could add pearls and rhinestones to bedazzle it up a bit. This especially looks great worn with dresses and skirts. This would be a perfect gift for a friend that may be getting married in the near future.

 Nobody can ever have too many maxi dresses. I absolutely love them and now, you can make your own and one for a friend in different colors and patterns. It's also nice because now you can make it the perfect length to fit any person's height.

 Even though I already posted a ruffle tee for one of my days of wearable, handmade gifts, I like this one because it's just a little bit different, especially since they use two different colors for the fabric and the shirt. And.... you can never have too many ruffled tops! http://sayyestohoboken.com/2009/10/diy-plum-ruffle-tee.html*If you happen to make this or any of the 25 days of Christmas Wearable, Handmade gifts, please feel free to post pictures and share how it went.

 This could be genius! I love finding new ways to use jeans that you just don't love as much anymore, but can't stand to get rid of or you might not have the money to buy new pants. If you're doing this as a gift, Goodwill, Savers, or any thrift store is perfect. Don't go out there and buy a brand new pair of jeans that you're going to end up bleaching and dying anyways.
Disclaimer: Just be sure you bring about asking your loved one/friend for their jean size gently because this could backfire if you go about it in the wrong way. As you know, this can be a very sensitive subject for some ladies.http://www.thelittlegiggler.com/2012/05/pink-skinny-jeans-re-fashion.html#.UrL6PNJDua8*If you happen to make this or any of the 25 days of Christmas Wearable, Handmade gifts, please feel free to post pictures and share how it went.
