From a teens point of view, I want to rave about Blamtastic, especially for guys.  Fill up the stockings with these for your teen guys! 

Lip Balm for guys…who cares?  Well they do, but they’ll probably never admit it, and chances are when you go to the store, most all of the lip balm products on the shelf are “girly”.

Five reasons why your male teens will want to find Blamstastic in their stockings:

You’re having the family and friends in for Christmas dinner or the New Year’s party, but want to spruce up your seating area a bit.  You may not be able to consider buying new furniture, but you can find some decorating answers at CushionSource.com, for your seating needs.

Soft toys are fabulous gifts.  They are cuddly, soft and huggable.  They are great additions to the toy room, especially when they can be machine washed.

It’s impossible not to like the Fabler line of soft toys from IKEA, they are suitable for ages one year and up.  An ideal Christmas gift for the young girl is the Fabler Bag.

Christmas is just 5 weeks away, and you might be nearly finished with your shopping or just barely started!  I find the last things I get around to are the stocking stuffers, because I don’t just want them to be ‘fillers’, but something my family will find useful.  Now is the time to order if you are looking for a personalized product for those stockings.

Lovable Labels are an excellent stocking stuffer and a practical gift.  Their labels can be attached to just about anything, and by using labels (especially on your children’s items) you can save money, by not having to replace items that would otherwise end up lost.

Funny, witty, and ingenious.  All of these words can be used to describe Cosmic, a book written by Frank Cottrell Boyce.  The word ‘cosmic’ could also be used to describe Cosmic, in light of the fact the main character often uses the word in the place of ‘awesome’.  Which is exactly what this story is.

We start off in the world of Liam Digby, a twelve year old boy who finds himself wandering in space in a rocket with the earth nowhere in sight.  He’s talking to his cell-phone, trying to make sense of what’s happening, and eventually delves into an explanation of how he got there.

You know, paper goods don’t really get the recognition they deserve.  They’re something most of us still use everyday even if we have a netbook, pda, or smart phone.  Notes to the teacher, shopping lists, holiday cards, are so much more expressive then e-mails or text messages.  There’s just something special about a tangible product that you can handwrite upon.

Here is another post that I had great fun writing for my Christmas Gift Guide.  11:11 has unique products to gift for Christmas.

11:11’s founder Jamila Tazewell began selling her wallets and card holders on the street.  Quickly realizing she was making more money than waiting tables she made a business go of it.

I am very pleased to have SIGG as part of my Christmas Gift Guide.  Famous for their reusable and durable water bottles, SIGG has ‘cool’ graphics for kids too!  They have challenged the juice box mentality with designs kids will want to tote with their school lunch or in their backpack.  As a parent you can feel good about letting your kids drink from a SIGG bottle, since SIGG’s EcoCare liners are made from BPA-Free and phthalate-free ingredients.

I always wanted to have a butterfly collection.  Seeing all the unique and beautiful wing patterns displayed.  Of course I didn’t want them pinned up on corkboard, I wanted them in a glass house, so I could watch them fly around. Gemmy has made my childhood dream a reality with their Butterfly Collection.  The collection has 4 different types of butterflies, inside a mason jar, under the control of …batteries!
