Balling on a budget?

Ooh la love. 

You can still do your girl or boy right by gifting them something cheap but chic, something pricelessly priced less.

Check these Photo Jewelry Supplies Italian photo charm photo bracelets. For $12.99 and an afternoon, you can gift your fav human a fingerprint-unique bracelet, a custom bauble of their memories.

“I love this! What a great gift idea and/or great item if you are a mom/dad! Love it,” says Michelle Lamar.

Totally, doll. It’s also great for a girl named Kristopher, maybe I’ll make some charming charms of neon pink K’s and six-dollar soy lattes and photos from Saks’ catalogue…

Though I think my to-be-gifted might prefer to build their own bauble, perhaps starting with a sleek Juicy Couture charm bracelet. “Although I have a certain fondness for the high end designer charm bracelets, I adore this super sweet number by California style maker Juicy Couture,” says Stiletto Jungle. “This simple design is 14k gold plate on solid brass with a heart charm at one end and is a steal at only $35.00. It is definitely stylish enough to wear as is, but if you want to start collecting charms, Juicy Couture makes the cutest ones out there.”

You said it, love. Consider gifting your girl a Juicy Couture “Cheque Book” charm ($50), even sans a matching Juicy bracelet - she can slip it on a gold chain and rock it as a pendant necklace.

If you or your love love hugging trees more than chasing paper, maybe the Trascendentalist-inspired “Live the Life You Have Imagined” necklace ($27.50) is more your pace (though, arguably, a golden check book could help you realize this quote). “I always ride with a necklace my friend gave me with the quote: ‘Live the life you have imagined’ –Thoreau,” says Jessica Ng. “It keeps me in check.”

There’s also this unnaturally natural Erica Weiner “Twig” necklace, equal parts downtown boho romanticism and uptown golden gloss. “I love this vintage brass charm in the shape of a twig. It is attached at both ends to a delicate brass chain, ” says John_and_Rose. “Charm is 1 3/4” long and necklace measures 16” around.  Lovely and delicate,” and only $32.

For $28 more dollars, you can buy your boy (space) friend or girl (space) friend or lifelong fiance a cheeky-chic sterling silver Unwedding ring.  “Fancy makes some really unusual, funny and cute sterling silver products. I especially like this ‘unwedding ring’,” says Laura Sweet. “Great gift for the newly divorced, the ‘living in sin’ couple or the perpetually single. Not only funny, but it looks good!”

Yep, like this DIY evening bag. If you’re feeling crafty, follow Mattie Roberts’s easy steps for at-home couture you can gift your bag lady.
