January Birthday Kit –
Hey babes!!
Have you ever taken the 5 Love Languages test? It tells you how YOU best give and receive love. Here’s a link for you. Totally free! Once you’re done, you will realize that you and the most important people in your life give and receive love differently. Props if you are the same as the ones you love! My hubs and I are complete opposites. I am a gift giver and acts of service person, and he… is not. 😉
Side Note: Todd and I read the 5 Love Languages book at the beginning of our marriage, and it changed how we look at loving one another. We are coming up on 20 years of marriage, so I tell you what, that Gary Chapman knew what he was talking about, and still does!
I love love love giving gifts.
SO… I’m rolling out a fun new set of gift items for you each month because even though I can’t buy every one of you ALL.THE.THINGS, I can post a curated, well thought out list of items every gal (and maybe some guys) in your life would like. And it will be geared toward each birthday month birthstone color. I wish I had thought of this sooner! (I know other companies like Etsy do the birthstone thing, but I’m giving you all sorts of options!!)
This is so so so so so my jam, y’all.
Also, worthy to note… it is our daughter Hannah’s 16th birthday in a few weeks, so some of these ideas will most definitely be used for her.
I hope you are as excited as I am!
Here we go.
- These super sweet Victorian garnet drop earrings. They are sterling silver, and real garnet, AND under $20.
- These garnet toned stacked ankle booties, with side detail.
- This super deep garnet Essie Nail Polish shade in Carry On.
- Or this more natural polish by Mineral Fusion in Garnet.
- LipSense shades in Plum, Mulled Wine, or Sheer Berry. (Holla at me for a discount if you are a January birthday, or buying for a January birthday. Mention this post, and I’ll hook you up!)
- This fantastic shade of eyeshadow by ColorPop in Paradox.
- This burgundy journal, with gold gilded edges, embossed with the names of Jesus. (Hannah is SOOO getting this)
- This unisex stretchy real garnet gemstone bracelet.
