Personalized Gifts for Mom by Personal Creations (w. giveaway)

By

Mother’s Day is just over a week away and if you’re struggling to come up with a unique gift, think about something that she loves and get it personalized by Personal Creations. Personal Creations features hundreds of personalized gifts for moms that are sure to put a smile on her face.
Having ordered embroidered Easter baskets last month and being impressed by the quality, I was excited to select a gift for Mother’s Day and take a look at the quality of personalization on another item.  Since my mother-in-law is a master pie baker and has passed on the art to our kids, it was only fitting to get her personalized pie baking dishes.
The description:

With an attractive bright red glazed finish and pretty fluted edges, this is the perfect home for one of her fabulous homemade pies! Our stoneware baking dish is lead-free, microwave, oven, and dishwasher safe. Choose from red, blue or green. We sand blast your message on 1 line, up to 22 characters. Measures 1 1/2” H x 9″ diameter.

The kids and I talked about what we might want the pie plates to say and since they’ve always called their grandmother Beema, it was only fitting that we personalized our plates to read Beema’s Pie.
How did they turn out?  Take a look!
They’re even more gorgeous in person than in the photo!
The pie dishes have a bright glossy glaze and are the perfect size. The lip for the fluted crust is just the right width and the pie dish itself is deep enough to hold lots of filling so the pie bakes just right.
Somehow I missed that the personalization was sandblasted into the pie dish but was pleasantly surprised when they arrived and saw that it was etched in, rather than just printed on the side.  Any pie baker knows that a sticky gooey filling that bubbles over and needs to be scrubbed off is likely to ruin any personalization that is printed on so I was thrilled that it was more permanent!
The kids couldn’t wait to give Beema her pie dishes so they were given to her early in hopes that she might bake us a pie as a thank you gift!

    They have such cute thing but I’d definitely get my mom a pie plate, too. She makes THE BEST pies! The crust is always, always from scratch. Ummm….my mouth is watering just thinking about it!
