She's registered at a couple of stores and I could just go get something on the list, but I would rather make a present or buy something handmade-- keeping the couple's tastes in mind, of course. That's where the registry list can come in handy: look at the sort of things they want, and then find something similar... No one will care in the end and you might come up with a better present!
Anyhow, since I've been doing all this searching I figured I would share some cute things I came across! I haven't decided on anything yet - I'm giving myself a week, and if I haven't made a gift myself by then, it will be time to buy something! [I'm going to try to paint some pottery next week - hopefully I can think of something nice to do!]
lab partners card by cutiepiecompany - $4
botanical cocktail napkins by Kainkain - $26
super sweet cream and sugar set by soule - $26Just some ideas! I think cloth and ceramic gifts are my favorite. To be honest, I've become smitten with everything in all 3 of those shops...

I LOVE the cream and sugar set. Just saying.
ReplyDeletethe cream and sugar set is adorable!
ReplyDeletei used to hate gift lists and things .. until i got a couple of really weird, random gifts that just arent me at all (from my parents of all people!)... so now i do give lists when they ask for them!
oh i adore those napkins! lovely!
ReplyDelete@Lexie: totally agree! I'm getting married in a couple months and am torn about making registries. While I inherently dislike them, I fear the gift-creativity of our families!
ReplyDeleteI like that first picture - cute! I think ceramic is a lovely idea - especially as it will last forever (that is if it's not dropped!) and they will remember their wedding and you when they use it!
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous!! I have a wedding to go to in January that I need to start thinking about. Least of all christmas gifts!
