Gift Ideas from CrystalWorld.com

“What can make you feel more loved than snuggling up with your favorite pooch? We often tell our pets how much we love them, and hear in the back of our minds, “Oh, yes, I love you too!!!” But, when I found Puppy-Gram on the Crystal World website, I knew I could capture that feeling when I am away from home simply by sitting Puppy-Gram on my desk and gazing at her `beauty throughout my day. 

“Puppy-Gram melted me the moment I saw those dazzling black eyes staring back - what could be more endearing than an adorable crystal carved puppy boasting the sign “I ‘heart’ you.” The red lettering gives it the perfect pop of color to catch your eye over and over. This crystal sculpture of love is absolutely adorable and will pull on your heartstrings. Standing only 1 ½ inches tall, its brilliance will enthral you - just place her under a lamp for a little extra burst of love (and don’t forget your sunglasses!!).

“I am thankful I chose Puppy-Gram as my very own. The ability to gaze at this beauty as a constant reminder of the love of my own best friend often brings a smile to my face, especially on days when I wished I had stayed in bed. Crystal World has an impressive selection of our fuzzy pets, captured in brilliant sparkle, and they all inspire different feelings of “warm and fuzzy.”  If you fall in love with Puppy-Gram as I did, you will be excited to peruse through the entire Crystal World collection, as they are definitely gifts made for both keeping and giving.”

Crystal World recently asked a group of bloggers to look at our site and comment on the crystal figurines. We were astounded by the thoughtful and interesting posts they created. Here is a sampling:

“Crystal Figurines have always been a favorite of mine, both to give as gifts and to receive as a special gift. My good friend and I at work both have a passion for Snoopy and have collected various forms of Snoopy, such as stuff toys, sun catchers and I have a Snoopy hanging from the mirror of my car.

“However, crystal collectibles are the best of all and I love “Best Friends” the most because I can get it to give to my best friend for Christmas and she will just love it. It will remind her of all the . . . special occasions when we gave each other Snoopy gifts for birthdays, Halloween, and Christmas, and will remind her that we will always be Best Friends . . . “

“Need some good holiday gift ideas? Tired of the same old ideas: the power tie, the foot massager, the cashmere sweater, and the fruit basket? Yeah, me too. You can’t go wrong with knick-knacks. Knick-knacks are what I call cute little decorative things that you put on your window sills or in your china cabinet. I love them. My grandmother used to have many of them in her house, and passed some of them down to my mom. Unfortunately, a house fire destroyed a lot of the knick-knacks I hoped to inherit and pass on to my daughters.

“Knick-knacks make delightful gifts. I love the glass or crystal kinds that you can set on your windowsill. When the sun shines in, the crystal figurine literally glows with the sun’s brilliance and spreads the light and color throughout the room. It makes washing dishes a little easier on the psyche, lol.

“Well, if you think a gorgeous crystal figurine is on your holiday shopping list, check out the beautiful models at Crystal World crystal figurines. Some of the figurines are the cutest little things
. . . I love this little penguin. I think he would make a kitchen glow with the sunbeams streaming in. Isn’t he adorable?! . . .”

“I found the cutest thing shopping on the internet the other day. It was a set of turtle crystal figurines. I love these because when I used to go to the mall as a kid, I would see the kiosk selling crystal figurines and there would always be some small animals that were just too cute to pass up, but of course I always did.

“But now that I am older, have my own money, and found a place where I can get a great price on these figurines, I think I’ll be buying some. And not only for myself . . .

“Besides the turtle trio, I think I am in love with the Peanuts Collection. Snoopy is my favorite cartoon character, so if you love him as much as I do, you will want to check out that as well

“If you still need (gift) ideas then how about one of the Crystal World crystal figurines available at CrystalWorld.com? I think they make rather cute and unique gifts because you can personalise them to the receiver’s taste and make them relevant to them and your relationship with them — not only good for Christmas but also for many other occasions. I think it’d be a great gift to receive from work colleagues on leaving a job. I know my mum would have loved the crystal iris rather than actual flowers when she left her job recently…a crystal figurine lasts forever . . . “

“One of my favorites in their Holiday collection is “I’m Cool!” an exquisitely cut crystal snowman. I have alot of snowman collectors on my list so this pick would be ideal! In fact I wouldn’t mind splurging and getting this cute guy for myself! . . . “

There are many crystal collectibles from Crystal World that make perfect holiday gift ideas for special people on your gift list. The beauty of Crystal World’s crystal figurines is that there is something for everyone. In Part 1 of this article we offered a few holiday gift ideas for men.

Women, as a rule, are much easier to buy for. Focus on their interests, and don’t forget that women often appreciate something that’s beautiful - food for the soul - rather than boringly practical (very few women want a new vacuum cleaner for Christmas!).

For example, gardeners, and anyone who loves flowers and that has less than good luck growing them, will appreciate something from the Crystal Gardens Collection.

Crystal World’s crystal roses are a beautiful way to proclaim your affection, and won’t ever wilt and turn brown.

Teddy bear collectors will enjoy one of the charming selections from the Teddyland Collection.

And, don’t forget the affordable elegance of the Towa Pearl Jewelry Collection.

That exceptional hostess will appreciate your thoughtfulness when you give the Golden Pineapple crystal figurine, universal symbol of hospitality and the finer things in life.

Special teachers would bask in the appreciation conveyed by the gift of one of Crystal World’s exquisite crystal apples.

Commemorate the arrival of a new baby this year, or a first birthday, by giving parents and grandparents A Birthday Beagle.

And, don’t forget Snoopy and Charlie Brown! Peanuts collectors are sure to break into smiles when they open their new Peanuts Crystal Collection crystal collectible.

For that truly special gift, select a personalized base for your crystal figurine. Your text can be custom engraved on a crystal base for the selected crystal collectible - creating an impressive, timeless, and memorable gift.

Crystal World crystal figurines make thoughtful and much-appreciated gifts that will stand out in the recipient’s mind. The artistry behind these stunning pieces is sure to impress. There is truly something for everyone on your gift list in Crystal World’s extensive collection of crystal collectibles.

Is there someone on your list that’s hard to buy for? Maybe you’re stumped for ideas for Uncle Fred, who has everything (oh, no - not another tie!). Or, you may be searching for an unusual gift for a special teacher or an exceptional hostess. Holiday gift ideas are everywhere you look, but which one to choose?

Make an instant and lasting impression by giving crystal figurines. These collectibles are not only impressive, but small - meaning everyone has a special place to display one of these treasures. For example, we know an Internet business owner who has the Compu-Bear crystal figurine sitting next to her computer where she can appreciate its artistry daily.

Crystal World’s collection of crystal collectibles is so extensive that you’re sure to find something for everyone on your list. Let’s start with those notoriously hard to buy for creatures - men.

Mind you, these holiday gift ideas apply to women too, but we do want to point out a few of Crystal World’s crystal figurines that typically appeal to men.

Does he slave over his motorcycle, keeping it polished to high sheen - or wish he’d never given his up year ago? The Small Classic Motorcycle is a work of art to rival the ‘real thing’.

Does he long to be on the water? Consider a stunning crystal sailboat or a crystal lighthouse to commemorate a favorite summer or vacation.

How about something from the New York Collection for those, like Sinatra, who “wanna wake up in a city that doesn’t sleep”?

What little boy didn’t wish he could fly, long for a train set or want to grow up to be a fireman? The Bi-Plane crystal figurine is phenomenal! (This product is retired and only available while supplies last.)

Patriots, armchair politicians and history buffs are sure to appreciate something from the National Treasures Collection. The U.S. Capitol Building crystal figurine is stunning!

Then there is the Wildlife Collection for nature lovers, orchids for the horticulturist, and the Games of Chance Collection for those waiting for that once-in-a-lifetime jackpot.

For desk jockey’s, the Crystal Pen Stand is a very impressive and affordable crystal gift.

The key to selecting the perfect gift is to hone in on the recipient’s interests and treasured memories. Take the time to look through the Crystal World catalog an discover the many holiday gift ideas we don’t have room to mention. You’re sure to find just the right gift for those special people on your list.

Ruth Jacob, a teen from Virginia, sent us this thoughtful note:

“I was browsing the Crystal World website at the recommendation of a friend the other day and came across the Grand Piano with Bench. It stood out to me not only because of its beauty - it is beautiful - but because of the nostalgia I could see one day tied to an unusual gift like that. My sister is graduating this spring from high school, and about to move on to college as a piano performance major, and I could see many years of a special gift like that sitting on her music cabinet.

“The beauty and accuracy of this and all of the figurines at Crystal World really astounded me. The Castle on a Hill and Penguin Chick also really stood out to me as gifts I could see myself giving.

“All of the crystal figurines looked beautiful and special, gifts that I could see given to one person I know, or another. Each one is so elegant and unique; they would make a perfect gift that is sure to be treasured for years to come. And though these three especially stood out to me, they were by no means the only ones that did. I can see how collecting some of these unusual gifts could become addicting; once you’ve had one, you just can’t stop.”

Ruth reminds us that people of all ages appreciate the artistry of Crystal World crystal figurines. These collectibles are truly ageless!

Guest Contributor Emma had these interesting thoughts to share after visiting the Crystal World website:

“I have to say, when I came across this website, I spent a long time looking at the wide range of crystal figures. The Angelfish really caught my eye, with its graceful form caught suspended in the crystal sea, and the colors so delicate…

“But Snoopy grabbed me from a whole different direction. He is perfectly captured, with all the light-hearted energy of the original Snoopy character. My very favorite is A Birthday Beagle, but I can see that if I have one Snoopy, I would soon want the rest!”

Thank you, Emma, for sharing your reactions to our crystal figurines. We always love to hear from new visitors. You probably won’t be surprised to learn that A Birthday Beagle is one of our most popular Snoopy crystal figurines.
