My favorite part, however, is that you can preview your personalized gift online before you place your order! That way you’ll know exactly how it’s going to look, and you’ll be able to make any necessary changes.
And here’s another little tip if you’re looking for quotes or poems for Mom’s 70th birthday…check out any of their items that feature a poem (you can find them here.) Just click on any product, and then click the “View Choices” button on the Choose Your Poem option.
