Looking for a unique and memorable gift idea.

Forget boring flowers or chocolates, a message in a bottle is the most unique and memorable gift that you will ever receive or send!

A great way to send a special message that will never be forgotten and will last forever.

Why not tell that special person you love them, or thank someone for a special day, a unique marriage proposal idea or just to say sorry!

As a gift or as an invitation, nothing conveys your feelings, your emotions, your sentiments better than your message in one of our bottles, so if you’ve written the ultimate love quote or a friendship poem that’s too good not to share, if you want to get someone’s attention with a romantic gift, if you want to stand out from the crowd and make that great impression, if you want to give something that lasts a lifetime and will never be forgotten, send them a personalized Message in a Bottle.

“I think the thing that blew me away about this gift was that I had NEVER told him about my dreams as a little girl to one day find a bottle with a letter from my true love. I would see it in the movies but never thought it would happen to me. Well yesterday it did! Besides my son, it is truly the most precious gift he has ever given me”

“I just wanted to let you know that the message in a bottle that you sent to my Mum when she was poorly in hospital had an amazing effect on her …. You have made a very difficult time a bit lighter. Many thanks.”

“Id just like to say thank you very much for sending the item I ordered the other day. It was 4 my girl friend she loved it.

I only ordered it on the sunday and she got it to day. Thanks very much once again.”

Sling That Baby – Why ‘baby Wearing’ is a Smart Choice for New Parents

 

Baby slings and baby wraps have been in use for hundreds of years, but are receiving new attention thanks to celebrity parents like Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. Jolie and Pitt have been spotted carrying their newborn twins in baby slings while shopping and dining out. The babies look very happy and calm while their parents look stylish and unique.

What is it about these baby pouches that have made them so popular lately?

Two of the main reasons for recent increases in sling sales are an increase in mobility for the parents and a decrease in crying and general fussing for the infants. With the baby in the sling, parents have both arms free to do chores around the home, get through the grocery store quickly, and even have a nice dinner out – all while cradling their baby in a loving and healthy manner. The babies love being in their wraps because they feel safe and secure right next to their parent’s body and have a nice high vantage point to look around and get maximum visual and audio stimulation. Which would you prefer – being strapped into a rolling cage low to the ground or being right next to your mother’s heart in a beautiful sling made out of soft, luxurious organic fibers?

The slings and wraps are also light and highly versatile – they can go almost anywhere including tight aisles in clothing stores, crowded outdoor marketplaces, and even up and down stairs with no problem. Imagine getting in and out of your SUV without the hassle of unloading the stroller from the back, putting it together, loading up your child, strapping them in, and then closing up the three doors you had to open to get all that done. With a baby sling, you just slip the sling over your shoulder, gently cradle your child inside the soft fabric, get your handbag and go.

Another reason for the huge popularity of baby wraps today is their unrivaled versatility. You can carry your child facing you up near your chest, down on your hip, facing away from you on your belly like a kangaroo, on your back like a backpack, up high on your shoulder, or even in a nursing position. Think about how convenient it would be if you could nurse your child while shopping with both arms free in your local market? Your baby is warm, secure, and eating lunch – all with 100% privacy due to the extra fabric included in his wrap just for this purpose.

If you have not experienced the freedom, comfort, and convenience of a baby wrap you need to order one immediately and put it to use right away. You’ll find yourself lugging around a lot less equipment, your back won’t hurt at the end of the day from stooping and lifting repeatedly, your baby will sleep and eat more while crying less, and you will look fantastic the entire time while wearing your new designer sling.

18th Birthdays: How’d You Celebrate Yours? (18th Birthday Gifts)

While some societies have momentous coming of age ceremonies (boys in Papua New Guinea wear a conical hat draped in leaves which reach to below the waist), we in Britain stick to the tried and tested routine of opening 18th birthday gifts in the morning, then spending the day in the pub getting merry.

But while that’s fun, it’s hardly original – and many of us do that every weekend, birthday or no birthday. If you want to be a bit more creative, there are all sorts of ideas for celebration themes which are entertaining, and they don’t have to feel like a kid’s party. Here are just a few ideas, along with some suggestions for suitably themed 18th birthday gifts.

A country theme: There are a couple of ways to do this. One is the classic of picking a country and getting everyone to wear appropriate clothing and eat themed food and drink. For example, a Japanese theme could see guests dressed as sumo wrestlers and geisha girls, eating sushi and drinking sake.

Another twist is to do a global theme where every guest comes as a different country. You can even award prizes for whoever manages to wear the most different items relating to their chosen country. And to make things fun, challenge everyone to find 18th birthday Gifts that relate to the country.

A celebrity theme: OK, so you might have been to quite a few parties where guests dress up as famous people, but there are other ways to do it. One is to limit it to celebrities and public figures from the year the birthday guest was born. Another is that everyone has to pick a famous person with the same first name as the birthday guest.

A Krypton Factor theme: Anyone receiving 18th birthday gifts in the next couple of years should still remember this classic show hosted by Gordon Burns. You can adapt it into a day-long event with your own twists, and either make it a contest for everyone, or just a challenge for the person celebrating their birthday.

The mental agility, observation, intelligence and general knowledge rounds will probably be best during the evening when a few drinks will make them more challenging.

That leaves the co-ordination and physical ability rounds for the day time. If you don’t have a flight simulator in your back garden, you could always pick one of the many flight-related ‘experience day gifts‘ on the market as one of the 18th birthday gifts.

A football theme: If the birthday boy or girl is football crazy, you could arrange a kick-about, go to a game, wear replica shirts or hold a soccer-based quiz. The beauty of this theme is there are dozens of suitable 18th birthday gifts based around football, so that’s one less thing to worry about.

A tube station theme: Challenge guests to find a costume that relates to one of the London Underground stations. This might seem hard, but there are plenty of possibilities. You could come dressed as Paddington (Bear), Victoria (Queen or Victoria), All Saints or Grange Hill - or if you’re really stuck, just sling on a West Ham shirt. If you live in London, you can make the birthday guest go on a station-based treasure hunt before they get all of their 18th birthday gifts.

An £18 theme: Guests have to come in as stylish, fashionable and trendy a costume as they can put together. The only catch is that their entire outfit – from head to toe, including underwear and shoes – has to cost less than £18. It will challenge their creativity, and it leaves everyone a bit more cash for those all-important 18th birthday gifts.

A casino theme: This has plenty of possibilities. You can serve Vegas-style cocktails, hold a buffet (though it’s unlikely to be all you can eat), and play a variety of games, whether for cash, drinks or just forfeits for the losers. The dress code is up to you: you can theme it with the black and red of roulette, or go the whole hog with evening dresses and dinner suits – and don’t forget that cufflinks make classy 18th birthday gifts.

A golf theme: This can be as simple as a night out dressed in polo shirts and plus-fours or something more elaborate. We don’t recommend visiting 18 watering holes, but an 18-round quiz could make the day memorable – particularly if each round is about a year in the birthday guest’s life. Lessons with a pro make great 18th Birthday gifts for golf-lovers.

A party themed around the year of birth: For those getting 18th birthday Gifts in 2008, this gives you the chance to celebrate 1990 with a German-themed party to celebrate the country’s re-unification, or a Russian-themed event to mark the Soviet Union’s collapse.

My personal favorite in the top 10 Christmas gifts list is the Nerf N-Strike Vulcan EBF-25 Blaster. It gives you the auto-blasting advantage when you’re at foam-filled war with your friends and enemies. Children and adults ages 6 and up will love the EBF-25, the largest full auto blaster that Nerf makes. It lets you shoot 25 sonic micro darts at up to 3 darts per second for an offensive assault.

Playing ‘mommy’ is even more realistic with this top 10 Christmas gift. The very sweet Baby Alive Learns To Potty doll! Press the doll’s bracelet to ‘wake’ her up. It’s time to eat! Mix her special food and feed her, using her bowl and spoon she’ll really ‘chew’ her food and even ‘drink’ from her bottle and tell you how much she likes it! And since Baby Alive is also ‘potty training’, she’ll also let you know when she needs to go. You’d better hurry, though! Put her on the potty and she’ll ‘pee’ and ‘poop’. But if you don’t get there in time, you might hear her say, ‘Oops. I had an accident!’ Change Baby Alive’s messy diaper and she’ll be happy once again.

Elmo-Live By Fisher-Price

Elmo Live deserves to be one of the top 10 Christmas toys this year, and, Elmo fans will delight in Elmo Live. This latest version of everyone’s favorite Sesame Street character has Elmo talking, singing, telling jokes, and a lot more.

Bakugan Battlers Battle Pack

Kids 4 and above (even adults!) will enjoy the challenge of earning points by rolling their Bakugan (or shooting them from a launcher) onto magnetic cards where the plastic spheres burst open to reveal the fearsome warrior apparatus inside. The popular and fun TV series “Bakugan Battle Brawlers” has spawned this strategic game that pits a variety of Bakugan Warriors – such as “Juggernoids,” “Fear Rippers,” and “Robatallians” — against each other for points. I have a feeling this will end up top of the top 10 Christmas toys list by the end of the year.

Spark kids’ creativity with this magical Color Explosion Glow Board where your drawings appear and disappear, creating cool 3-D effects like a neon sign.

Naming Stars in Different Cultures

While modern astronomers refer to most stars solely by catalog numbers and astronomy coordinates, many people informally name stars using name a star services. In fact, throughout history people from various cultures have used star names of their own choosing: Many civilizations explained their existence through mythological stories passed from generation to generation, and often associated these stories with the stars in the night sky. As we’ll see, even a major car company is named after the stars.

To illustrate, let’s start with a constellation (an area of the night sky) modern astronomers have named after a character from Greek and Roman mythology - “Orion,” the Great Hunter. Orion is one of the most well known and easily-identifiable constellations, and can be seen from just about anywhere on Earth: The best time to view Orion is during the evening hours between roughly December and March. Many classical mythology stories are told about Orion and how he came to be placed in the heavens. One such story is that Orion had no fear of any animal and therefore threatened to exterminate all of the animals of the earth. When Gaia, the goddess of the earth, heard this she became enraged and sent a scorpion to kill Orion. When Orion encountered the scorpion he was unable to kill it, and the scorpion stung Orion and sent him falling to the earth, fatally wounded. In honor of this story, Orion was placed in the night sky as a constellation, as was the scorpion - known as the constellation “Scorpius.”

While 21st century astronomers refer to the constellation “Orion” after a hunter from classical mythology, other cultures have had different interpretations of these same stars. One of the distinguishing features of Orion is a line of three, bright stars that form what is called “The Belt of Orion.” The ancient Egyptians thought these three bright stars were the resting place of the god Osiris. The Dogon people of West Africa viewed the three stars as the stairway to heaven. These same three stars have been associated with Christmas, viewed as representing the Magi - “The Three Wise Men” (The Three Kings) from the Bible. The people of the Marshall Islands viewed Orion’s stars as an octopus and a fisherman: The story told was of a fisherman who was attacked by an octopus. The fisherman defended himself by using a stone to stab the head of the octopus. Although the octopus was wounded he was able to spray his ink, behind which he hid and was able to escape. The Chimu Indians of Peru believed that the middle star of Orion’s belt represented a thief or mischief maker that the Moon Goddess punished. The Moon Goddess punished the wrongdoer by sending two stars to capture him and send him to four vultures that would eat him. This mythological story served as a warning for those who would commit crimes.

Another interesting example from classical mythology is related to a beautiful group of stars in the constellation Taurus called “The Pleiades,” or “The Seven Sisters.” These stars are visible in the evening sky from roughly November through April, and are often confused with “The Little Dipper” (which is in another constellation) as the bright stars of the Pleiades together resemble a very small dipper, or ladle. The story from classical mythology is that Orion, the hunter, became enamored of these seven beautiful ladies, and relentlessly pursued them throughout the world. Taking pity on the young women, Zeus placed them in the heavens where Orion continues to pursue them in the night sky.

Many cultures have also associated the Pleiades with females or femininity. The Australian Aborigines saw this group of stars as a cluster of girls who were musicians. These girls play their instruments for a group of young boys who are represented by the stars seen in Orion’s belt. Some Native American tribes viewed the Pleiades as seven mothers who were looking for their seven lost sons: According to the Chumash Indians of California, these seven sons had become the stars of the Big Dipper. The Kiowa Indians saw these stars as young women who were placed in the heavens by the Great Spirit so as to save them from attacking bears. In Norse mythology, they were the hens of Freya, the goddess of love, beauty and fertility. In Japan the Pleiades were known as “Subaru,” after which a Japanese car company is named.

Naming stars, then, is an age-old custom that has been practiced by different civilizations around the world.

Top Valentine’s Day Gifts

With Valentine’s Day fast approaching, it’s a good idea to start preparing in advance by considering all of the possible Valentine’s Day Gifts available for you to choose. Whether or not you’re a fan of the big day yourself, it’s probably safe to say that your partner - or your prospective partner, if you’re looking for love - is probably into the whole Valentine’s Day Gifts thing - even if he or she says she’s not. This being the case, it’s always a good idea to consider the ten most popular or potentially successful Valentine’s Day Gifts available; but not without looking at some of the worst.

While some bad Valentine’s Day Gifts should be quite obvious, there may be some others that aren’t quite so clear. Indeed, while flowers - particularly red roses - make for excellent Valentine’s Day Gifts - they won’t be quite so successful if they’re made from either plastic or wood; even in these troubled times of economic uncertainty, flowers that last forever are not great.

Similarly, if you’re looking to impress that special someone with some top quality Valentine’s Day Gifts, steer clear of things that could suggest negative opinions on that person’s appearance, or levels of personal. Within this category, Valentine’s Day Gifts that include gym membership, hair removal products, or deodorant are things that really won’t be appreciated. Last minute items from petrol stations or supermarkets, and any kitchen utensils should also be considered as inappropriate Valentine’s Day Gifts, no matter how much he or she usually loves to cook. Other awful Valentine’s Day Gifts might include divorce requests, but if you’re seriously considering that option, you’re clearly far beyond caring!

However, if you are trying to make a good impression, there are many different Valentine’s Day Gifts to choose from that are bound to hit the right note. Even for guys, flowers - specifically, roses - could we be one of the best options to go for; providing, of course that they are the real thing and not fake. Secondly, for anyone choosing great Valentine’s Day Gifts, jewellery is pretty hard to beat; obviously, success depends upon the type and quality of the jewellery in question, but that’s a decision you’ll have to make yourself.

Thirdly, if you’re looking for top quality Valentine’s Day Gifts, seriously consider giving chocolate. While a budget box of crèmes is not going to stand you in good stead, going for a little bit of luxury will help you earn those all-important brownie points. Fourth and fifth could well include underwear and perfume for ladies - or aftershave for men, but these carry their own associated complications.

However, in terms of the five greatest Valentine’s Day Gifts, one possible entry would have to be a bottle of Luxury Personalised Vintage Year Champagne; created from a delicious blend of Meunier, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, it’s one of those gifts that’ll have them bubbling with joy.

Number four in the league table of top Valentine’s Day Gifts could be great for those on a budget. Dubbed the Kiss Kiss Rubber Stamp Set, it’s a great gift for literally smothering romantic love letters in kisses. For number three, how about The I Love You Hamper; and for number two, why not go for the Personalised Romance Calendar. With every month of the year featuring a themed picture, personalised with a name of your choice, the romance can last for the whole year, rather than just the one single day.

However, for the ultimate in great Valentine’s Day Gifts, Lunch in Paris for Two is pretty hard to beat. As part of the trip, the lucky recipient - hopefully with you in tow - will get to spend a whole day in Paris, enjoy a fantastic boat trip, and at the same time enjoy a three-course meal. The meal also includes a bottle of wine, coffee and a musician and singer to keep you both entertained. And even though the day will eventually come to an end, its memories will last a lifetime.
