'Tis the season of gift giving, bringing joy into each-others' hearts and spreading smiles with sparkles!

It's a very special time of year, when we open our hearts and truly feel the magic of the season!

Where we take time to admire the twinkling lights, make special memories and where we genuinely feel uplifted inside. It's a fun time to express our creativity and where we can appreciate bringing delight to others with hand designed gifts, delectable treats and sweet cards bestowing notes of joy and prosperity.

Where a simple smile can make others smile, and where you feel all warm and fuzzy inside when you genuinely wish people the very best for an extra special, sweet, sparkly, fun, love-filled Holiday Season and a prosperous New Year!

Sometimes it can be tricky to know what to give all of those special people in your life. So here are a few ideas that will hopefully spark your creativity!

Glueing Swarovski Crystal Flatback Rhinestones to picture frames is a great gift for all types of people! Adding that extra special touch of elegance and sparkle to a treasured moment is wonderful way to show how much they mean to you.

Surprise your loved one, friends or family with a beautiful and thoughtful gift that would be sentimental and unique. A gift that keeps on giving by bringing the feelings of love and friendship into the hearts of those you love...now what's better than that??!!

Making personalized gifts is exceptionally fun, memorable and rewarding for both the giver and the receiver!

It shows that you have taken the time to think about what they would like and to create something valuable with those special personal touches, shows how much you really care. Whether it's a uniquely exclusive piece of jewelry incorporating a special picture, charm or sparkle that you know they will love, or embellishing a small pair of baby shoes for that "WOW...Awww How Cute" factor, it's the intention behind your gift and your beautiful gift itself that will be so appreciated!

Embellish shoes, picture frames, pens, apparel, purses...whatever you can imagine with Swarovski Crystal Flatbacks using E6000 glue and the Crystal Katana tool, which makes it so easy. With a little time and attention to detail, you can create the perfect gift for each special person in your life.

DIY fancy, sparkling pens for your co-workers or friends at the office!

Beautifying the little things in life can make a big difference in your day. Turning a normal boring pen into a sparkling, fun, delightful piece of usable artwork, transforms ordinary tasks into cheerful tasks! (Be sure to use refillable ink pens)

I hope these sparkling, creative ideas have helped you in your endeavor to make the perfect gift for this wonderful gift giving season and have fun spreading smiles with sparkles!
