Very Clever Gifts

The Custom Wine Source. This clever Web site customizes wine labels for any occasion: Anniversaries, Birthdays, Graduations, Housewarming Parties, Retirement Parties, or Weddings. They make fun gifts. I selected a tasteful label, personalized it with my company’s logo and information, and selected Mini Champagne Bottles. The customized bottles were the talk of our annual company gala. We distributed them to our vendors in appreciation for their business. They make perfect keepsakes and a great corporate gift. And…one of the guests at our party gave out wine at her wedding with their picture on it. Many other labels and styles from which to choose. Click above to examine the collection. They are tres cool!

Something for Everyone - Hammacher Schlemmer I have a new gift-giving destination: Unique Gifts - Guaranteed for Life at Hammacher Schlemmer for 158 years. My brother and sister-in-law recently had a baby. My husband and I got them this Portable Wireless Day or Night Video Monitor, so they can keep an eye on Michael from another room while he’s sleeping! The unit features an internal speaker that detects the slightest noises, so they’ll know as soon as he wakes up. This Wireless 2.4 GHz Video System provides sharp vision in daylight and can see up to 10′ in total darkness thanks to the camera’s eleven infrared LEDs that provide the non-visible light source that enable its night vision optics. Versatile enough for home security surveillance and baby monitoring, the device has a 2 1/2″ display that provides a large viewing area for crisp images. The camera and monitor plug into AC, or operate via four AA batteries each. Includes RCA Cables for connecting to a TV or VCR.

The Perfect Gift for Children of the 80’s I admit, it I grew up in the 80’s and remember being addicted to the stylishly simple Rubick’s Cube. I felt nostalgic the other day and Googled Rubik’s Cube. I came across this Photo Rubik’s Cube. This ingenious gift idea is the same size as the original Rubik’s Cube and features up to six of your photos, one for each side. Each photo is divided into nine ¾” individual squares. The cube is imprinted with the Official Rubik’s Logo. I bought one for myself and one for my twin brother, Andrew, for our Birthday. I had identical photos of us from our childhood placed on the Photo Rubik’s Cube. All of my co-workers can’t resist playing with my Rubik’s Photo Cube when they pass my desk! They all want to know where I got it.  My husband also loves this unique gift and has proposed to his boss that they put their logo on it and give them away as corporate gifts.
