2009 Holiday Gift Guide

A Cowboy's Wife — Sun, 29 Nov 2009 21:24:59 +0000

First let me say that I was overwhelmed with all the gift ideas I received this year which makes it extremely hard to narrow it down to just a few but I did get it done. I chose items based on uniqueness, functionality, style, and practicality. I think with the economy like it is, most people are looking for items they can use to get the most bang for their buck.

The 2009 Gift Guide is up but needs some tweaking so bare with me please. I’ll be adding products to the gift guide every day so keep checking it out. There will still be a few featured here over the next couple of weeks as well.

If you are looking for gift ideas for the foodie & kitchen lover, check out My Wooden Spoon’s 2009 Holiday Foodie Gift Guide (which also needs some design tweaking). I’ll also be adding products their daily as well.

I did some shopping myself over the weekend for Black Friday, how ’bout y’all? You can see my story via Whrrl! I participated in a fun shopping trip to find the best Black Friday Deals and had a blast doing it! I’d love to hear what you got if you went.

Cowboys on a Bag

Okay, I got my bag! I LOVE it and I’m so glad I chose the diaper bag because it fits EVERYTHING! My camera, my flips, bottle water, snacks and so much more. The outside pockets are perfect for my iphone. I chose to put my cowboys on it, which also happens to be my husband and my boys. LOVE IT!!!!

The quality of the print on both sides are perfect and I couldn’t ask for a better job. SOOO worth the money and it really would be an awesome gift.

If you are wanting to order a bag as a gift idea, say for Mother’s Day, then you need to act fast! In fact, you MUST ORDER BY APRIL 30 in order to receive by Mother’s Day. And I also have a coupon code, SHAC10 for 10% off at SnapTotes.com!

I’m not gonna lie to you guys, it’s a bit on the more expensive side but you have to remember, you’re getting a handbag that is personalized with the photo(s) of your choice! It’s of great quality and something you (they) will have for a very long time!

Your Favorite Photo on Tote!

I have an obsession for bags. Totes, handbags, whatever…it doesn’t matter ’cause I love them all! I was introduced to Snaptotes.com recently and of course, had to get a bag. You can basically put an image of your choice on the bag. They even have the option for you to create a collage out of a few photos to put on your bag. Not only is this a very cool gift idea, the site was extremely easy to use.

I’ve played around on several websites where you can upload a photo and had the darndest time figuring it out and getting my photo to fit just right! At Snaptotes, it really was a breeze. I mean, you upload your photo(s), you can crop, nudge up and down or side to side and like I said, even create a collage. Once you’re done, you get to preview and add to cart. Super easy! Wanna see mine?

Because I love my cowboys so much, I just had to put my favorite pictures of them on my handbag!! Speaking of bags, they have a lot to choose from. Very cute little handbags to big diaper bags like the one I chose. What? NO, I don’t have a baby but I do have a camera which is practically the same thing and it needs ample room for it’s lovely attachments!

I will be following up once I receive my bag and let you know of the quality of the bag and the custom photos that I had put on it.

Have you thought about a gift idea like this?? Or are you like me, selfish and thinking about getting one for yourself??
