Gift Wrap Those GIft Cards!

If you are like me, this year a lot of people on your list really just want gift cards for Christmas.  My daughter and my niece want gift cards to their  favorite stores and for downloading music and  my sisters-in-law enjoy getting gift cards for buying fabric and sewing notions, books, groceries, meals at great restaurants and for going to the movies.

It used to seem like giving a gift card was not a very thoughtful gift, but with the current changes in the economy, more and more family and friends are asking for gift cards so they can use them for what they really want or need, when  they are ready to shop. It makes perfect sense,  and you can get a gift card just about anywhere for anything!

In fact you can buy gift cards right here at Mama's Pocketbook!

And what better way to "wrap" and present those gift cards than with a multi-purpose Mama's  Pocketbook Card Case! You'll find a variety of fabrics, or choose the Misc. Florals option to be surprised! 

Christmas Tissue Covers and Holiday Tissues

Adorable Holiday Tissues and Dottie Tissue Covers

These are not your ordinary tissue covers, they are from Mama's Pocketbook, so you know they are of the highest quality and made to last. There are no raw seams even on the inside - my special technique for making these cute little accessories results in a durable, washable, functional, and fashionable cover. 

The red dottie or green dottie fabric is a great cotton canvas that works for boys and girls, men and women. These make great gifts for teachers, bus drivers, mail carriers, delivery people, neighbors, co-workers ... friends, family, young and old alike! Everyone can use a nice tissue holder! And everyone enjoys the holiday printed tissues included!

HURRY to order, at $4.75 each and with free shipping via first class mail. If you want Priority Mail, please email me and let me know or add to comments and I will invoice you $4.75 regardless of the number of covers ordered. These are bound to sell out fast and Christmas is just around the corner!

OH GOODIE! The time has come to dive into your Christmas shopping head first! And there's no better place to shop than from the comfort of your own home, browsing at your leisure all the fabulous shops participating in Christmas at Make Mine Pink , a Pink Friday Christmas shopping extravaganza!  Today we kick off our Holiday Shopping Series of Pink Fridays! 

I am so excited about Christmas and I can't wait to shop with all my friends at Make Mine Pink to find perfect gifts for my family and friends. Doing the bulk of my shopping online really eases the stress and makes the holidays so much more enjoyable. I have more time for parties and fellowship, baking cookies, decorating the house, visiting with family and friends, and yes, I do venture out to the shopping centers and town squares to shop as well, and having already taken care of much of my shopping online, I'm able to relax and take in all the sensations, smells, sounds, and just breathe in all the wonder of the season.  

Did you know that Mama's Pocketbook and ALL of the Pink Friday Shop Owners are meticulous about packaging and customer service? Oh yes!!  That is a big deal to us! We take great pride and extra measures to make our customers happy. Every purchase is carefully packaged and many include little extra gifts with purchase, or free gift wrapping, gift certificates, customized products, and above all, excellence in customer service. That is always the RULE, never the exception. Our customers are our the best and we treat them like royalty! 

So let's get moving...  Go to my PINK FRIDAY HOLIDAY SALES PAGE NOW!!

Don't hesitate when you find that perfect gift, many are one-of-a-kind and you don't want to miss out on the chance ... you know you'll be smacking your forehead later if you wait!! And no one wants to sport big bruises on their forehead in their holiday photos!! 

I have really gotten into the holiday spirit with deep discounts on lots of great items!  Like $10 off this One of a Kind Victoria Black Rose Pocketbook. I expect someone will grab this beauty by the end of the day today! Don't forget it comes with accessories, a matching tissue holder and I'll even throw in a matching card case! 

And of course there's always the mints, and some of the sweetest smelling soap from my friend Marie at SavonMarie! Oh it is heavenly! And who knows what else I might pack up with your lovely new pocketbook? Christmas is all about the giving in my book  - and in my pocketbooks!

I also have some treasures for the sewing enthusiasts -Mama's Pocketbook Gift Baskets! One is overflowing with vintage sewing goodies and fabrics, and the other contains an adorable kit for making Mommy & Me Aprons! 

There are more photos of these lovely baskets on the website. You won't believe all the wonderful itmes I've stuffed into these baskets! 

Anyone who sews will absolutely adore either one (or both!) of these gift baskets.

And there's still so many more great Christmas bargains to find... 

Do you love to pour over Christmas magazines from year's past to find great recipes, decorating ideas, arts and crafts, and gift suggestions? I know I can't be the only one who loves collecting Christmas magazines! But I've memorized many in my collection and it's time to share! So I've put together two lots of Christmas & Holiday issues of our favorite home, garden, arts & crafts, and womens' magazines. Check them out from my Pink Friday Christmas Page!

Whew, I just can't cram it all in here, I'll be here typing all day!! Just GO, and shop and see for yourself all the goodies and deals I have for you today. And remember, these prices are good TODAY ONLY!!!  HO HO HO!!! Merry Christmas and Happy Shopping!
