My daughters birthday is coming up, and with the holidays just leaving us and trying to find gifts for her, I’ve got that big question in my head “What the heck am I going to get her THIS year?” She’s already got a billion toys, I guess she could always use more clothes, I could go on and on, the list of ‘thoughts’ of what could I get her for a birthday gift could go on forever and I still probably would change my mind a million times!

At least she’s only turning 6, I’m sure I’ll figure something out, it’s not a huge problem. But gift giving seems to be a problem for just about everyone, you always have that “what should I get them” question no matter the occasion or the person.

The key factor to gift giving is KNOWING that person. What would they like to have that they won’t buy for themselves? But it’s not always that easy, sometimes we’re not that close to the person, sometimes we don’t have the opportunity to learn about them as much as we’d like to, so that’s when you need to depend on someone else to help you out. Sure there’s still effort, and you’ll have to think, but it may be a lot easier than thinking on your own and trying to figure it out.

When we get into the situation that I’m in, a gift for a child you have to remember their age. Age appropriate gifts are a must for children. Think of things they currently play with, or hobbies they have. Think of when you were a kid, what did you like? Bigger, colorful gifts. With kids, visual impact is everything!

Anniversary gifts are another struggle for people. What to get your spouse for that special day, or maybe it’s a friend you need to get a gift for. You could go by the age old ‘year of the anniversary’ gift, but those are sometimes hard to come by and could get expensive. Be creative! Think of the person, or the couple, what are they into? Hobbies? Anything special they like to do together? Couples gifts can be a surprising great gift for an anniversary no matter who it’s from.

Don’t let gift giving be stressful. It’s always the thought that counts, and hey, if they don’t like it, they’ll appreciate that you actually thought to give them something anyways. What are your best gift buying tips?

1 tablespoon dried oregano

1. In a large soup pot simmer the carrots in the broth until tender.
2. Add the tortellini and simmer until tender.

So, I’ve found a new time wasting site, as I’m sure many of you have. No longer am I wasting my time solely on Facebook, but now it’s more of wasting my time on Pinterest!

I’ve found so many great recipes, and although I’m not a ‘crafty’ person by far, I have so many new ideas for do it yourself home décor thanks to Pinterest! I think soon, my husband is going to kill me with all of the new projects I want to do…

Thing is, as much as I want to do, if I did it professionally, or by buying the actual décor items, I’d be spending massive amounts of cash! So instead, now I’ve found some creative outlets that will let me turn everyday items into amazing décor pieces.

With the ideas below, I just have to get some simple craft supplies from a place like Factory Direct Craft and I’m on my way to creating some amazing pieces. Some examples of some things to do on your own are below:

Turn an old picture frame into a vanity tray -  Whether you keep the frame “as is” with old photograph and all or insert patterned gift wrap in the frame, picture frames make a terrific vanity tray. The frame edges keep items from sliding off, while the glass top can be easily cleaned. Try painting the frame if you need a quick color boost.

Re-use a sleek wine bottle as a vase – Once you’ve enjoyed your favorite wine, turn it into a great home décor piece for fresh flowers. Bonus: Try adding champagne colored stones into an empty VOGA Moscato bottle to match the gorgeous champagne colored detailing.

Turn cake pedestals into decorative displays – If you think cake pedestals look gorgeous with a tasty Red Velvet cake on top, try using them as a decorative piece for candles, flowers and more. You’ll free up a ton of space in your kitchen cabinet, while adding an exciting touch to any rooms’ décor.

Turn old clothing into throw pillows – Turn outgrown, outworn or stained clothing into great throw pillows. Just because the elbows are worn on that flowered top you love, or those lipstick red skinny pants no longer fit you, doesn’t mean they should hit the can. Cut two squares of equal size from your clothing of choice, sew the edges and fill with pillow stuffing.

Reuse glass bottles as soap dispensers – Use a glass soda bottle, wine bottle or liquor bottle to dispense your hand soap, body oil or body wash. Opt for your favorite liquor bottle for an edgy feel or try a basic clear bottle for a clean and fresh touch.

Turn old jam jars into hanging candle holders – You’ll be reminded of your childhood days chasing fireflies. For an elegant, yet fun touch to your indoor or outdoor décor, wrap wire around the lip of old jam jars and create a hanging loop. Display under porch beams, curtain rods or anywhere you need a playful touch.

Some amazing ideas! And that’s just the start!
