CrossTimber Review

We tried out a fun product from CrossTimber  that would make a great stocking stuffer. CrossTimber is a company that offers Name Meaning products. They do book marks, plaques, activity sets etc. We received and 8x10 plaque print and a printable activity sets.  You can take a look at some of the different products they offer here:

The first thing I did was go to the website and browse around a little. They have several fun and beautiful things to offer. I loved the book marks and the name cards but ultimately I decided on the 8x10 plaque print with 2 names. I chose the Celtic design that you can find here http://www.meaning.name/NG/8x10/Celtic1.html. I really just loved the cross design and thought it would go well in my home. I choose to do each of the girls first names on the plaque. Then I used my oldest name for the activity set because she likes that sort of thing. Ordering was very simple and only took a few minutes once I settled on a design. From the time I placed my ordered it only took about 10 days for my to arrive at my home. It came packaged in a heavy envelope that had two sheets of cardboard on each side to be sure nothing got bent in shipping. I did not order a frame with mine because well I have a stock pile of frames that I have just waiting to have a use for. 

This is what ours looks like across the top it has both of the girls names, then below that it has each names origin and then what the actual name means. Alyssa means highborn, regal, noble woman: Joy and boldness for Christ. Savannah means From the Treeless plain, cherished: One of an Open Heart. Down below that you see two bible verses. Both of these choses versus were beautifully chosen. The printing quality of the plaque is very crisp and clean. The one we received has an aged look which reminded me of an old bible page. 

Next we have the activity set we were sent. This is a great product for younger kids learning to write and use a pencil. This set was packed full of mazes, copy work, coloring pages, matching games etc. The activity sheets we received were printed in color and that was really nice. It gave them a good quality feel. The pages are Bible themed and most have a scripture quote. I would say the age range for these would be kindergarten to about 3rd grade or so. My oldest is in 8th grade and while she said they were neat they did not hold her attention for long. My youngest enjoyed the color pages and the mazes even thought they had her sisters name on them. 

CrossTimber products would make a beautiful Christmas gift for a loved one this Christmas Season. Click the link below to take a look at some of the other beautiful product options that CrossTimber has to offer.
