2012 Holiday Gift Guide - For the Mommas!

1. Kristine's Keepsakes Hand Stamped Sparrow Necklace
I design and create hand stamped jewelry and keepsake pieces. Each one is individually stamped, so no two pieces are identical. I am a single mother to an amazing little boy! He is the one who has inspired me to create so many of my pieces. Order by December 10th for guaranteed delivery by Christmas! I have ordered a necklace from Kristine and plan on ordering more - they are so unique and special!

2. Jac & Elsie Small Pearl Silver Earrings
My name is Jaclyn, and I'm a features reporter for a daily newspaper by day who found that making jewelry is an incredibly relaxing, and fun, pasttime. The style of the jewelry I make has changed over the years, and it's become very vintage-inspired -- I love taking old pieces and updating them -- and easy-to-wear. You're much more likely to find an awesome long necklace with bold beads or a funky pendant than you are the little beaded pieces I started out making. The pearl earrings are so dainty, they match everything! Be sure to check out Jac & Elsie's best-selling friendship necklaces as well.

3. Inlite Bags Silver SolClutch
Inlite brings you Light-Up purses and bags that illuminate with the click of a button. The patent-pending technology features LED lights that make it possible to see what's in your bag so you'll never have to fumble around your purse looking for your items again. Add some light to your holiday season with Inlite! Makes a perfect gift for friends and family. Receive 15% off of your order and free shipping with code HolidayLights! If you lose things in your purse and can't see them in the dark (like me) this is the bag for you. A geek girl's dream. They have a number of awesome styles, too!

4. Saving Grace Designs Diaper Clutch

I'm a stay at home Mama to four little ones who enjoys creating baby items that I, myself, have found to be useful and fun. This clutch is perfect for those quick trips when you just want to carry around your giant diaper bag. It fits a diaper, some wipes, a binky, and snack perfectly. Be sure to check out Danielle's muslin swaddling blankets, too!

5. Awkward Designs Plastic State Charm
I am a Californian stay at home mom with a passion for crafting. Selling my favorite Scrabble tile jewelry online has allowed me to keep busy and do what I enjoy. Until 1/1/13 use code GEEKY for free domestic shipping on any purchase. These state charms can be customized with a little heart or star over your hometown and make great necklaces or keychains. Kira makes fun scrabble pendants as well.

6. Something Sweet by Tay Royal Icing Holiday Cookies
Something Sweet by Tay is a small specialty bakery located in Arizona. We offer all kinds of yummy things, but we're famous for our Royal Icing Sugar Cookies, which can be shipped nationwide. This bakery has been a dream of mine since I was 7 or 8 years old, and it was a family-wide effort to make that dream a reality. Get 10% off of your order with code GEEKYHOLIDAY. All I can say is YUM. At only $1-1.50 each these cookies are a steal and would brighten anyone's day. I think I'll be ordering some for Carina's birthday party (and hopefully I won't eat them all myself...)

7. Jennifer Tingwald, Independent Origami Owl Consultant Living Locket
In June of 2012, I started selling Origami Owl as a way to fund-raise for our second adoption, with hopes of bringing home our second child from Colombia! Living Lockets are an extension of YOU - because each and every piece is custom designed to tell a story of your life + of what's important to you. I fell in love with the product and have been so blessed to help women across the country tell {their} story! Through November 30th, any order that is emailed to me {SimplyCharmedJenn@gmail.com} directly will include a free chain 18-20" ball chain with every locket purchased. Origami Owl lockets are so unique and customizable they make the perfect gift that you can add to over time! Check out all of the adorable charms.

8. Claire Lakin-Koel Independent Tastefully Simple Consultant
Bountiful Beer Bread Mix
Tastefully Simple is a direct sales company that features convenient, easy to prepare foods such as appetizers, soups, dips, spices, desserts, and drink mixes as well as wonderful gift packages. I love Tastefully Simply because it has always made my life easier by allowing me to make delicious, easy meals that have a homemade feel to them. From now until December 10th, Tastefully Simple is offering a peppermint stick for $1.99 and a special holiday recipe book called "Make the Holiday Sparkle" which make great additions to any gift! The Bountiful Beer Bread and Nana's Apple Cake are my personal favorites. So quick and easy!

9. Jennifer Moran, Independent Thirty-One Consultant Timeless Beauty Bag  I am the happily married mom of an almost two year old rambunctious little boy. I joined Thirty-One because I loved the product and also liked the idea of making extra money for my family. Through November 26th spend $35 and you can purchase a medium utility tote for $5. From November 27th through December 31st, for every $31 you spend you can purchase a timeless beauty bag, timeless wristlet, cinch sack, thermal tote, or mini utility tote for $5. While the Timeless Beauty Bag is perfect for makeup, ours is used for storing some of Carina's toys. She loves it and will not stand for Mommy using it for anything else ;)
