Make it Personal: Make it Yours

Do you want people to spot your name in your jacket instead of seeing the usual popular fashion brands? Do you feel a need to express yourself through custom printing and designing your own invitation cards for a weekend party? Sometimes, you have to break free from purchasing items for the reason that you like them but doesn t express a bit of yourself.
When you wake up early in the morning, what do you usually do while waiting for breakfast? Grab a newspaper or a favorite magazine and then get yourself a hot cup of coffee. If your mug is personalized, then good for you! If you don t have one, why not buy a plain mug that is your favorite color and get it personalized. You may put an uplifting quotation to inspire you for the rest of the day.
One powerful way to express yourself without speaking is by dressing up. Fashion has been one the ways of showing one s personality. Fun-loving teenagers wear bright shades of dresses and accessories. The emo community chooses items with black and dark colors. Somebody who creates customized tees and wears them, are undeniably creative. There are so many ways to customize a shirt. You can make embroidered style, create cool designs using fabric paints, tear or cut the fabric in some parts to come up with an edgy look, sew in shiny beads for extra glam, or buy iron-on decals to make a plain T-shirt become fabulous in an instant. Believe me, anything related with fashion is fun for customization.
Are you having a hard time thinking of what gift are you going to give for a friend? Why not let your trapped creativity work? Making personalized gifts isn t difficult at all. First, you have to know your friend s field of interest. Is she crushing on a famous football hottie? Gather photos of the hottie in the internet or cut pictures of him in magazines then make a collage. The collage will serve as a wrapper for an old box (or maybe an empty shoe box). Voila! Now she ll be happy to receive an all-purpose box! To add more from the surprise, place a tiny item (which is your gift 2!) then fill the box with confetti and other stuff to confuse her. Let her experience a mini treasure hunt! You may get fresh gift ideas from magazines or websites on the Internet. You may craft your own too!
Having personalized items and customized stuff is a pleasurable way of adding significance to things. Entrepreneurs purchase customized stuff as promotional items to advertise. Thoughtful people send gifts with their personalized touch. You can make your own identity too. Aim to stand out from the rest of the crowd. Make it personal. Make it yours.
