Using pyrography and 2 very cute little ceramic resin teddies I made this personalised wedding keepsake plaque as a wonderful gift to give to a bride and groom.

It costs £10.

The oval solid wood plaque is 21cm wide, 9cm high and 13mm thick.

It makes a wonderful keepsake and gift to give to the newly weds.
The plaque is personalised with the bride and grooms details, date of the wedding, and place. It also has "Congratulations on your Wedding Day" on.
Ceramic bride and groom teddies, which are appox. 5cm tall, are added also to the plaque.
Hanging twine is added and your choice of gingham or heart ribbon.

It's approaching Valentine's Day so Samigail's Handmade Personalised Gifts has a number of suitable plaques for gifts for a loved one.

Any of the plaques can have your own message added. Simply decide which plaque you like and let us know the message. I've always wanted to personalise a plaque with "Will you marry me?" Will this year be the year?? I'll even add in extra ribbon for a ring to be tied onto the plaque.

So, feel free to have a good browse around all our Valentine's themed plaques and send a unique gift this year.

Personalised Flowergirl or Bridesmaid Teddy


One of my latest gifts added to the website is a gorgeous little teddy which is dressed as a flowergirl or bridesmaid.

It has a wooden heart tag added to it with 'Thank you for being our flowergirl' burned onto it by the art of pyrography.

There is a choice of teddy in either a pink dress or a golden yellow dress. It would make a lovely little keepsake gift for any flowergirl or bridesmaid.

The teddy is found here and costs £8.00 plus P&P of £1.50

My first Blog post! Wow.  Those that know me would be surprised to hear I'm suddenly stuck for words!!
I suppose the impetus for setting up my blog is to spread the word about my fairly new craft business - Samigail's Handmade Personalised Gifts
I make handmade wooden personalised gifts for all occasions by using the art of pyrography (wood burning).
I love all different types of crafts - cross stitch, glass painting etc. Last Christmas I was hunting online for ideas for my husband to buy me for Christmas. I found a pyrography iron. Thought about it for a while then decided actually I just couldn't wait and bought it for myself sometime before Christmas. I had in mind I could make Christmas decorations for my children. 
I enjoyed making the decorations immensely. I then decided for my son's christmas present to his nursery school teacher it might make a lovely unusual gift. The idea of a business was
 planted! 
So, before christmas 2007 I was busy making quite a few christmas decorations which were a huge hit. The idea that they were personalised with the teacher's name and the year was quite popular. My first efforts are shown in the picture!
In January 2008 I wondered what to make next and started thinking about weddings, christenings etc. I built up lots of different ideas and now have over 80 different listings in my ebid shop.
I now sell on MISI and Ebid
