Whether you’re trying to impress the girl of your dreams or looking for a fun way to teach your little ones their Ps and Qs the set of six Lovely Manners Placemats are quirky additions to the dinner table, each covered in guiding sentences that teach you proper table manners.

Each of the six placemats has its own unique set of manners- a total of 24 cute reminders about how to behave your best at the table. Examples include:

Do not begin to eat until EVERYONE HAS BEEN SERVED.

Always ask for food to be passed. NEVER REACH OR POINT!

Please do not use your fingers to push your food onto the fork.

Please use your knife as a helper!

DO NOT PUT TOO MUCH FOOD onto your fork.

NEVER STUFF YOUR MOUTH! You will look rude stuffing all that food in your mouth!

NEVER CUT OR SUCK UP long pasta pieces. A few strands should be twirled on your fork, using your spoon as a helper if you wish.

Gift Giving
We all have our own reasons for giving gifts but regardless of the occasion, the intention is the same: that small smile as the wrapping comes away and the warm fuzzy feeling of knowing that you have made someone feel that little bit special.

Now, with www.kindredgifts.com.au that gift can bring smiles all round, as you shop from a range of gifts which are all helping to support the environment, and the people and animals in it.  

Can’t decide?

Kindred Gift’s "Buy Once, Give Twice” philosophy means that their gift cards aren’t just contributing to some corporate fat-cat’s private island fund.  Instead, they’ve adopted a whole new way of doing business and buying from them means that you’re being eco friendly, buying handmade goodness or contributing to fair trade initiatives and charitable causes.

On top of that, Kindred Gifts also donate 2% of their revenue to charities, so if you can’t decide on one thing in their fantastic range then why not buy a pretty little gift card and let the person you’re buying for decide?

Designer Marcia Maizel-Clarke always dreamed of creating beautiful jewelry that makes a hopeful and happy statement and in 1991 that dream came true when she founded Dogeared Jewels and Gifts. In Marcia’s words, "Our hope is that Dogeared jewels help people connect with one another in a meaningful way, and create an ever expanding circle of joy."

A new and gorgeous Dogeared collection in the spirit of true love and affection has just arrived in Australia. The Dogeared ‘LOVE’ collection is modern, versatile and trendsetting. Each handcrafted necklace is an expression and extension of your love for someone close to your heart.

The Dogeared XO Kiss and Hug Necklace features a hand cast eco-friendly, recycled sterling ‘XO’ silver charm pendant and hangs on a fine sterling silver chain. The XO Kiss and Hug card sweetly says, "a Kiss and a Hug are all I need. Wear your necklace as a reminder that.... I Love You".
