Woodgroove‏ Personalized Gifts Review and Giveaway

I just love getting special gifts that are personalized just for me or for the gift recipients. I make every effort when giving a gift to someone special to make it as personal as I possibly can so when I ran across Woodgroove Personalized Gifts I knew this was a company that I would love to learn more about.

About Woodgroove Personalized Gifts (Taken From Website):

Inspiration.
Our first daughter was the inspiration for our first growth chart in 1998. The growth chart became a special place for us to record not only her physical growth, but also her life's milestones - her first steps, her first meaningful word (daddy!), her first day of preschool, her first piano recital (at age 5!). Soon, friends and family were asking for personalized growth charts - both to receive for their young children and to give as personal and memorable gifts to others; and so Woodgroove™ was born. It is our pleasure to provide you with unique, creative and cherished gifts.

Passion.
Our early growth charts were hand carved. Today, our personalized gifts are laser engraved with computer-controlled lasers. We blend functionality and personality into showpieces for your home. Our products allow you to express your style and your thoughts. So go ahead and express yourself with an original gift from Woodgroove™!

Designed by You. Crafted by Us.
Whether buying for yourself or as gifts for friends and family, every Woodgroove™ product is unique because it is designed by you. Choose your favorite font, design and more to personalize your order. Get creative!

My Thoughts:

Kristen was kind enough to send us a Baby (Newborn) Block personalized with my son’s information including his Full Name, 3 Initials, Birth Date/Time, and Birth Weight/Length. I was so excited to have it arrive in the mail and it was just so beautiful, almost too much for words to say!! It was packaged in a nice little box with blue and white confetti paper which I thought was very elegant! Before I go to far into my thoughts I’d like to tell you a little more about the Baby Block (taken from the website):

Solid natural wood block measures 2 x 2 x 2 inches. Personalize all six sides. Inscription is case sensitive (use upper and lower case letters as desired). Order is for one block. Comes packaged in gift box.

Suggested inscription:
Side 1: Baby's Full Name
Side 2: First Initial
Side 3: Middle Initial
Side 4: Last Initial
Side 5: Birth Date & Birth Time
Side 6: Birth Weight & Birth Length

We are extremely pleased with our block and will be getting another one once our other child arrives! “Bug” really liked his block as well and we have it setting on his desk along with a few of his other favorite things. The block is so beautiful I wanted to share a few pictures of it:






This is where "Bug" wanted to put his block in his room:

I will defiantly in the future be ordering these as new baby gifts for my friends and family! But they not only offer just Baby Blocks they also offer Answer Blocks, Chinese Blocks, Invitation Blocks and Teacher Blocks! I’m really considering sending out the Invitation Blocks for “Bug’s” third birthday party!

You should really check out Woodgroove Personalized Gifts because of all the wonderful gifts they offer!
