Super Moon… Super Discount!

Back in March the UK was treated to two big events, first was the amazing sight of a total solar eclipse, and second was the introduction of our beautiful and unique 'I love you to the moon and back' moon print!

This weekend we are in for another special treat from above! A very rare combination of both a total lunar eclipse AND a super moon will fill the skies. This combination was last seen in 1982 and won't be seen again until 2033 so make sure your set your alarm! You can get the complete lowdown on this event here in this great video from NASA...

 

To celebrate this very special event here at The Drifting Bear Co. we are offering customers a 20% discount on all our moon products this weekend (26th-28th September). Simply head on over to the Space section on our site, choose your product and personalisation, and place your order. Use discount code MOON20 to receive your 20% discount and then head on out to watch this spectacular sight.

Sydney's Blog - August at The Drifting Bear Co.

I love the Summer holidays, lots of walks on the beach (the ones I'm allowed on of course) and chances to lap up spilt ice cream at the seaside. It seems that I'm not the only one who's a fan of Summer as the lovely team at The Drifting Bear Co. are having a Summer Sale here on the website! So while you're basking in the sun why not take a look at all the lovely prints and gifts you could buy at a bark-tastic 20% off! Simply use the code SUMMER2015 when you get to the checkout, simple as that.

Perhaps you can use your 20% to help celebrate a friend or relatives academic success with our new Graduation Coordinates Print. Displaying the coordinates for the University, along with the course and grade awarded, this makes a unique graduation gift to cherish. You can also display the name of the diligent student, the University name or any other special message. I know a few pups that have recently passed their agility courses so will definitely be helping them celebrate with this print!

 Also new this month is our New Baby Phase of the Moon Clock. Designed with the exact moon phase on the night of the baby's birth, this clock would be a lovely gift for new parents and a beautiful addition to a nursery wall.

The clock can be personalised further to show the time of birth using a large star for the hour, and a small star for the minutes. When the hands align with the stars the clock acts as a unique reminder of the special moment a child entered the world.

Woof! I've just spotted a break in the rain here in sunny Devon so I'm off out to track down some ice cream.

Sydney's Blog - May at The Drifting Bear Co.

Hello, Sydney here again!

May has been another busy month for everybody here at The Drifting Bear Co. with the start of wedding season upon us and Fathers Day just around the corner.  Whilst I'm pretty sure I'll always be a single pup, I have been pondering what I can buy my dad David for Father's Day.

There's certainly plenty of new personalised products for me to choose from as the Drifting Bear team have had their thinking caps on again and produced a great new range of personalised items.

 

First up is this Personalised Photo Print on Wood, a photo print with a difference!  These natural wood slices come from responsibly sourced Ash trees and make a unique canvas for your treasured photos.  Ideal as a personal and thoughtful gift for any wedding couple or dad, these wooden slices bring the wonder of the great outdoors in to your home.

The tree rings featured on each slice not only make each piece unique, but beautifully reflect the passing of time and would be a great way to celebrate a special birthday or anniversary.

Whilst the traditional gift to give for a fifth wedding dog anniversary is a chew toy, in the human world it's wood!  This makes these wooden slices a perfect anniversary gift for the humans in your life.

Next is our Personalised Wooden Wedding Keepsake which would make a great gift for couples looking to remember a special date and celebrate their love.  Simply provide two names and your special date and The Drifting Bear team will create you a beautiful gift.  

I'm already a bit of a wood fan, and am always partial to a stick or two, so can see that the natural and unique materials of this item would make a great addition to a rustic wedding day, as part of the styling for the day and then as a momento of the day for years later.

Your wooden slice can be displayed in so many ways making this a really versatile personalised gift.  I think I would keep mine in my toy box or next to my food bowl but they would look equally good attached directly to a wall or simply placed on a shelf.  You could even attach a hook and hang the wooden slice on ribbon or natural twine. Alternatively, order more than one and create a unique set of wooden images to compliment your home's style (as shown above). 

These beautiful personalised gifts are proving to be really popular so I better get my order in quick.  I don't even have to worry about getting my paws round the wrapping process as each wooden slice is wrapped neatly in tissue paper ready to be presented to the lucky recipient!

Now to get on to the serious business of picking which photo of me dad would like… there are so many to pick from.
