AAPM Top Picks at A Handmade Affair
July 27, 2017
Due to our customs and culture,
June has always been considered the most preferred month for having a wedding.
But as years pass, many couples plan to get married based on their own
convenience and their guests' as well. Hard times would never hinder the couple's
desire to have the best wedding because it's once in a lifetime. When we say best,
details like venue, decors, flowers, food, and most of all souvenirs and
keepsakes can never be out of the picture. It is but natural for Filipinos to
be so thoughtful and most of all, they love to personalize their gifts. As a
giver, he wants the recipient to feel extra special. As a recipient, accepting
personalized gifts makes him feel that the giver has made time and effort
to produce something that he can call his own.
In my visit to a crafty celebrations and wedding expo, A Handmade Affair, a couple of months ago, there
were six unique handmade and personalized gift ideas for the couples,
parents, secondary sponsors, guests, our loved ones, and even for our own consumption that caught my attention. Here they are:
Tomato Time
made my eyes twinkle due to its latest collection and services. Imagine for only
Php950, we could customize our own or our loved ones' watches! It also offers couple watches for only Php1,800 or we could have the leather straps of our purchased Tomato Watches stamped to make them
personalized! Awesome!
The products that we tried on Neutraorganics' booth made us feel that we could have the best of beauty
and health at our age by simply using its products!
The gift of natural skin care products is best for the bridesmaids and secondary sponsors so that they can look fresh and rejuvenated before the wedding.
I fell in love with these unique handmade magnets by The Art Boutique PH! These could serve as personalized table markers and souvenirs for the guests.

Studio 925 made me swoon over its handmade accessories! Their creations were beautifully crafted and super affordable! I would like to get
them all! For only Php8,000, couples could have their own customized wedding rings! The necklaces and bracelets would surely be appreciated by the female secondary sponsors. Yay! So nice and dainty!
Jaz Arts andCrafts was one
of my most favorite exhibitors. On its booth we were able to create our very own floral
headbands for free and shopped very affordable scrapbook materials and tools. Crafters, kids, and young at heart would love its products.
The last time
that I drank alcoholic beverages was in 1999. I didn't even try to do it again
even a sip until Sir Jeremy of AWC Philippines convinced
me to do so. Believe me,
I enjoyed the experience! Codoniu Clasico Semi Sec was the bomb! I really, really liked it! AWC Philippines' wines could make any occasion livelier and they could be the best gifts for the primary sponsors and male secondary sponsors.
