Goldenhills Jewelry has a good selection of designs on display from earrings to necklaces and, of…read morecourse, engagement and wedding rings. If you are not content with their display items, you can choose designs from brochures. They also do custom made designs if you want a particular finish, thickness or gem to make your jewelry truly your own. We were quite late in buying our wedding rings (late as usual, LOL). It was good we ended up going to their shop in February though. All their jewelry was on sale! Discounts were from 20% to 60%! The moment we sat down, the ladies were there to walk us through the different rings they have. We tried every ring that fit our price range but nothing really "wow-ed" us. That's when the ladies offered that we have custom rings made because, with the discount, we would get it at a good price. Awesome! So, our rings will be made of white gold ring in a matte finish with yellow gold edging; my ring will have a gem because I didn't get an engagement ring (because Carlo gave me an "engagement house"). Super simple the design is very me and Carlo. :) From the discounted price, we paid for the reservation fee. Part of the service is also engraving for the rings. Just make sure the message will fit inside the ring. Also, Goldenhills gives you the option to pay for your rings in installment basis up to 6 months. That is very convenient! Lastly, the adjustment of the ring size and cleaning is free plus a Lifetime warranty! I have to say, I was very happy with the service of Goldenhills Jewelry. I really recommend this shop if you plan to buy your own " special occasion" ring or jewelries :D

My dogtag means a lot to me. I never take it off. If I'm walking about or just lounging around the…read morehouse, it's always around my neck. I'm not a military junkie or an army wannabe. I'm just a person with great sentimental value and I know good work when I see it. These guys do good work. Their dogtags aren't like the tags you see sold in tiangges or most fashion botiques. These are the real deal: military grade steel dogtags. And they're sturdy. They don't bend, they're not liable to break... they're made to last. These also aren't plain dogtags, either. Along with your order form, they'll have you add text to your tags. Apart from the text, you can pick between steel, brass or copper and the color of the silencer that comes with it. Their prices have gone up since the time I had mine made but if you want a way to keep your info on you (just in case) or want a unique accessory all your own, this is a great investment.

I was walking around SM Megamall not looking for anything in particular when I came across this…read morekiosk that sells customized name tags. I thought of having one made for my dog Frankie. They specialize in engraved name tags, and I got one that wasn't metal (I found the metal ones too large and might be too heavy for my dog, who is just a small sausage dog haha). Their bone-shaped tags come in several colors, and you get to choose the typeface used as well. I must've annoyed their staff because as a graphic designer, I am PARTICULAR with fonts. I am somewhat of a font nazi, and will judge you on your use of typefaces (HAHA kidding, but no really... give that Curlz MT a rest). After what seemed like an eternity, I finally settled on a font called "Porky" which is a round, all-caps type with wonky, angular kerning. The font really represented my dog's personality (he is bouncy and makulit and makes the funniest stick out tongue face). TIP: Choose a readable font! They have a lot of typefaces to choose from, but you know, I'm just a picky, snobby graphic designer. I'm sure you can find something that will suit you. You can get your tags in a few minutes, too! I was very pleased with my dog's name tag, though a comment I have is that it's not very scratch-proof. But it looks great!

Artistically presented, often with an antique touch. That's how I would describe the gifts and…read moredecorative items displayed in this rustic, country-style store: Simple notebooks made special because of the brown recycled paper used and the beautiful lettering of the lines inscribed on the cover. Cuckoo clocks which help you keep time in style. Card and envelope holders individually crafted, clearly not just factory produced. Unique earrings to bring out a quirky, creative you. Period paintings on wooden frames to help your relive the spirit of a romantic, bucolic age. Small lamp shades to bring a touch of class and historical context. Wooden panels, fixtures and cabinets that can bring the store's rustic vibe into your own home. In a quiet but effective way, these items grow in the consciousness of the receiver. That's probably the reason why, despite having been around for quite some time, Papemelroti has never lost its charm. So, whenever I am in search of a gift, I always put among my first options a purchase from Papemelroti.

I was really impressed with my purchase at Robee Stickers in SM Megamall. I went there to have…read morepersonalized thank-you stickers made for my nephew's first birthday. I was the only customer that time so I really had ample time to choose the size, font, and design of the stickers. Before they started printing, I made several more changes to my order and the staff was accommodating and patient enough to attend to my new demands. In less than a minute after we finalized the sticker design, my order was done. But that's not the end of it. What surprised me more was the fact that Robee's services were really affordable. Upon seeing the thank-you stickers, my sister told me that she also wanted to have her own personalized name stickers to label her books. Of course, I went back to Robee Stickers the very next day and I had the same neat experience. I ended up buying labels for my niece too. Aside from stickers, Robee also offers customized bagtags, business cards, and invitations.
