Bonus Gift Idea

I wanted to show you guys this amazing engraved crystal that I got from Crystal Clear Memories. It would make the perfect gift idea for your best friend!

When you go to their website to order, you are able to choose the shape and size and the crystal and then all you have to do is upload your favorite picture of each other straight from your phone or computer.

I lost my dog this year so I got a crystal with his picture engraved and it turned out AMAZING. If you really want your crystal to pop, be sure to order a light base with it! It even comes with a USB Cord and USB Box. I opted to add a light base and it almost made the crystal come alive (see pictures below).

Shipping is free for all orders and if your crystal happens to get damaged in the shipping process, they will replace it for FREE. Click here to order your Crystal Clear Memory!
