I absolutely love products that can be personalized. Not only do I buy them for myself (recent purchase: a new necklace with my initials engraved on a shell at the show via Cash & Carry), but I also give them out as gifts. The fact is, personalized gifts offer gift store owners the opportunity to sell something different than mass merchandisers.

Here are six personalized products that I found at the show:

1. It's a Wrap… cute coffee cup holders and mugs. You can only get a single initial personalized, but I loved the fabrics! It's a great impulse item.

2. Royalty Custom Kids… adorable dresses for babies, toddlers and children. With their fantastic quality and price, it's a cute addition to any store. Available in four styles and eight fabrics, and the baby and toddler dresses even have coordinating bloomers.

3. Gift Giant… they are now offering a new line of hand-painted signs (Door Doodles) for kids' bedrooms. I loved the graphics and the fact they're made in the US.

4. AB Designs… a fantastic line of frames.They can be personalized with a first or last letter initial, and the quality is amazing, as are the fabrics and embellishments. Frames are perfect for a wedding, baby or in-your-home-decor department of the store.

5. Wee Paint… adorable wall art for children. The graphics are amazing for both sexes, and they sell the art on a rod with or without ribbons. Each piece is customized and growth charts are available.

6. The Pink Monogram… a great line of clogs that can be personalized. Not only are they super cute (with a wide range of fabrics), they're also very comfortable!
