I believe this Swarovski cake figurine was a gift that my brother gave me, because I asked for it. But that was quite a few years ago, so I’m sure that it was less expensive than it is now. On the Swarovski website, it says that this piece costs …

I purchased this glass paperweight in Bloomingdale’s at a time when they carried Caithness art glass. I don’t think they carry it anymore. Caithness is a company from Scotland that produces gorgeous handmade glass paperweights. I have a few of them, and I think they are all fascinating in …

I was just given a fantastic gift by a sales representative, who sells a great deal to our company. It started out as “Isn’t that the cutest thing you ever saw?”. It ended with, “that’s the best candy I’ve eaten in ages!”! This is the perfect gift, if you …

Prestige Art Glass Studio creates handmade glass pieces (paperweights, figurines, etc.). I actually have two of these glass teapot ring holders — one in blue and one in pink. Yes, that’s right. You can use this little teapot to hold some of your rings. But it will only hold …

I remember buying quite a few of my Crystal World figurines in Cape May, NJ, because there are two or three gift shops in that little town that carry (or at least used to carry) Crystal World products. I believe this butterfly figurine is one of the pieces that …

Crystal World calls this piece “Whiskers,” but I think that is confusing, because it sounds like they are referring to a cat. Actually, they are referring to a rabbit that has long whiskers. I fell in love with this piece right away, because it is adorable. The cute pieces …

A friend bought this for my (then) weeks old son - she was on a shopping trip to New York and this was his ‘birth’ gift, along with other similarly themed decorative presents. It’s not the largest piece of wall art, measuring just 9″ high and 7″ wide but …

I know that all generations have certain toys and games that cause a huge craze. In my experience, these fad toys are usually ridiculously expensive and over-priced for the quality. Such is the case with the Zhu Zhu Pets. This toy gained popularity in 2009 and was a huge …
