Engraving on gifts and awards
Many gifts for awards, retirements, or other recognitions, are appropriate for engraving. There a few considerations to be made that help determine what to say and where the engraving should be placed.
First of all, is the gift to be placed in a office, lobby, or for the recipients home? Gift that go home should be sublter in both message and placement. For exampe, a clock presented for a retirement often will have the engraved plaque place on the back so as not to make the gift a trophy. Gift that stay in the workplace shuld have the message place in a visible position.
Another consideration for engraving is the message itself. Too long of a mesage makes for an un-appealing engraving. "Joe Smith" thank you for many years of devoted service and helping XYZ Project be a success" That is a bit much. Usually I reccomend "JOe Smith, Project Name, Date if important, Company" The rest of the sentiment should be made at the presentation or with a card with the gift.
Of course, every gift to be engraved has it's own spefic considerations to make it convey the message of the giver. Shulan's will help find the appropriate gift and offer guidance for the engraved message so your presentation or remberance is appreciated and significant.

The 5 pice place setting
Only Americans buy boxed five piece place settings. There are ways to pick china that truely allows you to epress youreself and offer you the flexibility to be able to ask that most important question; "How do I want to set my table today?" When you have those choices, your china is not boring and you look forward to using it.
Get the pieces you will use. With your everyday china, do you really need 12 mug or cups? I just registered a couple today that choose a charger, dinner plate and salad plate for thier china. It is what workd for the way they choose to enertain.
Sincerely,
John Shulan

Birdal Registry
Congratualtions to those newly engaged couples. On the list of a thousand and one things to do before the wedding, Bridal Regisry is one of them. Picking everyday and good china can be a daunting task.
First if you are not thrilled to the gills with it, it is the wrong product. Today's china paterns are so versitle and fun to use, don't take boring as a chioce. Everyday china sould be durable and intersting to use because you use it EVERYDAY! It is the one not to skimp on.
Good china decorates your table top, not your dinning room. You will probable have your good china thru several dinning rooms you will own in a lifetime. If your good china does not allow you to aks "How do I want to set my table today?", you will use it five times and then pull it out when you have to. That is a waste of money. With good china, you should use it often. Having frineds over to cook burgers on a grill and watch a ballgame TV, set a pretty table for three reaseons.:
1. sign of respect for your guests
2. creates an event separate form day to day living
3. kick back and enjoy life.
We all work long hours and have hassles but use your china to take to time to enjoy the beauty of life.
