Review: CrossTimber

Disclaimer: I received a FREE copy of this product through the HOMESCHOOL REVIEW CREW in exchange for my honest review.  I was not required to write a positive review nor was I compensated in any other way.  

When you first hear you are pregnant most moms are already starting the hunt for names. They are looking for a name they like as well as have a meaning that is special to them.  CrossTimber has come up with some amazing products to help you show off what your name means.  I recently was able to order a 8*10 plaque print from them and I was so pleased with the results. They had SO many options that it's easy to find something for everyone.  As a freebie they threw in custom AmazingName Print Activity Sheets.  

When I first went to the website I was a little overwhelmed. I think honestly it was just all the colorful options.  After looking around though I realized that while there are tons of options it's very well organized. That made it easier for me to narrow down my interests. I have to tell you it was hard though with all the options. I ultimately decided that I haven't done much for hubby and I in a while, so why not order a plaque with our names on it. The ordering process was very easy from there.  From the main page I selected Multi-Name Plaques. I originally looked around thinking just for myself, but then realized they could do couples and decided to go that route.  
  

After that it gives you a list of all the different categories for the plaques. I looked around at several of them and ultimately settled with couples & sweethearts.  

After browsing around and going back and forth I chose A Loving Pair.  After it arrived and seeing it in person I was very glad that I went with this choice.  

There are several options that you can choose from when ordering such as with or without a frame and what color frame.  I wasn't sure exactly where I was going to put mine, so I decided to just do the print. It worked out great because once I saw it in person I knew exactly where I was going to put it and what color frame I needed for that room.  When I was in the order process I did reach out to customer service. My husband and I are a multi-racial couple and I was wanting to show that in the print.  John at CrossTimber worked really hard trying to help me out. I ultimately decided to stick with the print as it was, but he really was super helpful and the customer service was great! 

With my order I also received a customized set of AmazingName Print Activity Sheets. I had these made with my son, Issac's, name on them. I figured it would be something fun for him to do while I'm reading out loud in the morning starting our school day.  We spell Issac's name different than most and so when I received the sheets they were made with the spelling Isaac. I debated whether to message them about it, but my son is kind of picky about using something if his name is spelled wrong (LOL) I messaged John and again he was great. He was super apologetic and had a fresh set made up and sent out to us. There are some happy accidents that happen in life and I consider this one of them! I ultimately ended up doing the other pages myself. I haven't done anything like that in a while and it was relaxing and fun.  

If your looking for a special gift I highly recommend checking out CrossTimber. They have some other great customizable items such as mugs, bookmarks, music boxes and even have a new item that is a personalized cartoon! I was really happy with my entire ordering process and will be remembering them when I want that special gift for someone.
