Wedding Gifts from Swarovski

This week's guest post is written by Paige Farrey

This is the season of weddings and new beginnings…. An exciting time for those getting married.

For those tying the knot, congratulations and all the best for a lifetime of love and happiness! As you prepare for your big day, part of the preparation is working on the list of items you need to start your life together. Some couples work on a gift registry at a number of different stores to either start a home or add items that have been forgotten during “single” life. Or, as some get married, you’ve already collected the china and silver from generations before and what you now need are the sources to create a “home” with your new spouse. 

How do you move from the idea of “my” place and “your” place and create the “our” place?


There may be subtle changes needed, new window treatments, new towels, etc; or a complete overhaul to a home may be necessary. Now is the time you can create the home together. Choosing the kitchen of your dreams or just adding a new sink and faucet to update the look. Purchasing a new dining room set or just switching out the chandelier. Creating a spa-like bathroom or just updating the vanity and lighting. These are all some of the choices you can make establishing your nest.

As a guest during the wedding season, there is always the stress of purchasing the “perfect” gift for such a special occasion. A piece for the home is nice as it is something that will be there as a reminder of their wedding day and hopefully is something they can use on a regular basis or appreciate on a daily basis.

Swarovski Crystal Home Accessories offers nice choices adding sophistication and a classic form of “bling” to the home.  The Crystalline Toasting Flutes are delicate, elegant and very festive – perfect for a very special occasion.

The Ambiray Picture Frames are timeless sophistication. With a strong, modern silhouette, the graceful design shines in stainless steel with a large number of tiny faceted clear crystals. The pure shape and clean lines complement any interior.

The Crystalline Red or White Wine Glasses make your private or group dining experience a memorable one. Their stems are filled with clear crystals for a sparkling effect and the base is made of a large faceted clear crystal. 

A wedding picture would pop in the Starlet Picture Frame with thousands of shimmering chatons glittering in the columns of this festive picture frame with silver-tone metal details.

For the couple that enjoys a good cocktail party or just martinis after a long day, the Crystalline Cocktail Glasses turn an evening into a festive occasion. The stems are filled with clear crystal chatons that lend a sparkling effect and the base is a large faceted clear crystal. And if all else fails, there are gift certificates to their favorite home store or restaurant.

Congratulations to all the happy couples!! And to those not getting married, enjoy the parties with wonderful friends and fabulous reasons to celebrate.

LED’s are in! LED’s now take center stage. Now, fixtures with new shapes, sizes and configurations are more popular, breaking old restrictions in design and bringing a refreshed look to your home.
Another great decorative idea is to renew your breakfast nook, bathroom, kids bedroom or foyer by placing a beautiful chandelette.

 Chandelettes may also go by the term, 'mini chandelier'. A chandellete is a smaller version of the chandelier. It is typically 9 to 12 inches in diameter but no bigger, as the bigger version is of course, the chandelier. Aside from the smaller size, chandeliers and chandelettes share many similarities.

Chandeliers have recently gained popularity and they can be found in unexpected rooms, such as the bathroom, a walk-in closet, a bedroom or a home office.

You can also add a tranquil atmosphere to your home during springtime by choosing home accessories and lighting fixtures made of bronze, copper and gold; their warm tonalities are perfect to bring a welcoming mood.
