Are you stuck for good birthday present ideas? This happens all the time because we never know what the person has or hasn't got already. Here are seven (7) great birthday present ideas that you can be pretty sure they probably don't have:

1. Digital picture frames. These have only been recently been introduced in the last year or so and are starting to gain in popularity. You can download the pictures for them and all of their family and friends so they are on it already when you give. If you are at a party, take some pictures then and put them on. Great way to personalize them.
2. Personalized plates. This one is more for the younger person (or older person). Your own one of a kind present with your choice of background, font, font colour & symbol in the middle if one is desired. Kids seem to really appreciate this one as it gives them a sense of ownership.
3. Custom jigsaw puzzles. They are made from your own snapshots, personalized holiday greetings, children's name puzzles and more! As one of our birthday gift ideas, this one is interactive and keep the gift receiver busy for a while.
4. Name a star. Have you ever heard of anyone getting a star named after them? There are Star Registries that sells gift packages that sell certificates for the person you are dedicating them to by date and telescopic coordinates of the star. One of the more romantic birthday present ideas.
5. Customised toys - this is the way of the future in toys. Toys like; Styled by Me Barbie, Create Your Own Steiff Bear, Elmo Knows Your Name and Make Your Own Maclaren stroller. For all these toys you can personalize just the way you like.
6. Personalised sneakers - you can design and personalize more than 100 shoes by choosing from hundreds of colours and styles for laces, soles, thread and shoe fabric combinations. You can even put your own name or saying on the back of the shoe. One of the most popular sites to do this on is Nike.
7. Custom Figurines - as birthday present ideas these are great. Using your photo for reference, a professional sculpture will create a custom caricature figurine in your likeness. The figurines are about 5 inches tall and are made of a fine polymer clay resin that are sculpted with tiny tools. They are then hand painted with expert finesse to make them look like you. One of the really fun birthday present ideas.

Hopefully one of these birthday present ideas will inspire you to find something that's suited to the person you're buying for. If not, you can always resort to a cheesy gift voucher - oh wait, you can get those customised too!

Truly Unique Wedding Gifts: Custom Figurines

How many times has this happened to you? Deciding what to get the bride and groom as a gift, but have been stumped because you don't want to get the same thing as another guest? This challenge of selecting unique wedding gifts turns wedding cheer into wedding fear for many.

Obviously you want to make the gift special, and to stand out from all the others. To show that you've actually put some thought into it - not just a last minute dash to the store and quickly having it wrapped. However if you purchase unique wedding gifts that stands out from the others the couple will always remember the thoughtful gift. And you'd like to be that person to be remembered right?

To do that, one thing you have to understand is in a nutshell; unique wedding gifts are gifts that come straight from your heart - not just your wallet (although it does help). And you can choose the unique wedding gifts that will absolutely blow the newly wed's away!

The solution that I've come up with is custom iMiNiYou figurines.

What the Hell Are Custom iMiNiYou Figurines?

These are very amusing and entertaining handmade polymer clay miniatures. They are made to look like you and are great talking pieces. iMiNiYou Custom figurines are made to your specifications in a caricature format and are a cool alternative to boring white goods or cutlery...not that these are unwanted things.

The amazing thing about iMiNiYou custom figurines is that they are created in your requested image. This is all done by a highly trained artist straight from your photo. Each figurine is totally unique and you can rest assured that nobody else can have one like it. No more worries about getting the same thing as someone else, and you'll be sure that the bride and groom will remember it.

You can pick the hair color, the eye color, the skin color, and even the clothing if you choose to. So if you wanted to get creative, you can pick a cartoon or movie character, or draw one up if you choose. The choice is yours because you can let your imagination run wild. Whatever you can think of, the artists in the studio can create for you. Just be aware that there are many pre-designed templates that you can choose from that will speed up the process and lower the cost.

Imagine sending couples to wed special and unique wedding gifts that represents their love instead of slavery in the kitchen (this is a bad joke, I hope you understand). It will last forever and they can look back at it and reminisce.

For example;

- If they are comic book fans, you can request them done in wonder woman & superman outfits - Fans of the Matrix? The bride and groom can be dressed to look like them too! - Are they crazy tennis fans? Dress them up in tennis gear - If they are car fanatics, make them up in their favorite car - If they like horse riding, get them made up with horses etc

Conclusion

iMiNiYou Custom figurines (as unique wedding gifts) are a great option for guests that don't want to give traditional wedding gifts - or for couples that already have all their household goods. Unique wedding gifts as ideas are not just for those with unlimited budgets. And rather than gambling on a gift that someone else might have gotten, make your life easier and go for the unique wedding gifts by personalizing.

It does not matter if you are looking for a unique valentine gift, unique wedding gift, or even a unique birthday gift, custom figurines ensure your gift will be a unique gift idea for a long time to come.

What do I need to make a homemade clay figurine?

I'm looking to make some fan art work using clay.
Now its been a long time since I did any clay work.
And I also don't have accesses to firing it. (Unless some one knows of any in Bradford UK)

What I'd like to know is:
What kind of clay should I use?
How can I colour it?
How do I varnish it?
And where I can get these items from?

I recommended Polymer Clay to someone else, but I haven't used it myself. It's not real clay, more like play doh, I suppose.

The benefits are that you can actually color the clay itself as you go, you can put it in your oven and "fire" it. See the link. And I've seen some cool stuff with it:

As far as regular clay, I've never been a fan because there's so many stages of it and it's messy. Slip (watered down like mud), normal wet clay, bone dry, and then fired. When it drys, it can start cracking. If you can't fire it, you can probably get away with letting it just naturally dry, but it will be more brittle. I think acrylic paint would do for. Don't fire it with that paint on it, it would most likely just burn. I would see your local arts & crafts store for what materials they have and what they suggest. If you can't find anything, search online. Maybe even see about a public school for firing the clay. My middle and high school in the USA all had firing ovens. I later even found my church had a firing oven I didn't know about. There may even be a place in your town.
