I am quite ridiculously sentimental in a way that my practicality would hide rather well. Each of my piercings have special memories, as does each of my tattoos. But as I’m not a punk rocker or a teen ager, I don’t particularly want to be covered in metal or pictures, so have had to find a new form of commemoration and remembrance: Jewellery.

I think that’s why Cutey appeals to me. The descriptions on individual items are romantic and dreamy, like “This rich and unusual bracelet is full of remembrance, memory and wisdom” or “this bracelet embraces the soil and foliage, the roots and the branches of life on our planet.” Of course, that’s all fine and well, but it doesn’t really mean anything, does it? Except that it speaks to the intention of the pieces of jewellery, and makes them romantic and classical.

I have the Momus style with beautiful glass beads, two star charms and a tower charm – you can choose tower or bell with this style – to signify a place of safety.

Quality wise, I think these bracelets belie their costume jewellery prices:

They’re made out of good materials, and feel weighty and look expensive. They certainly don’t look like they cost as little as £12.99.

The clasp is the most unusual I’ve ever seen. I can’t explain it, but have a look at the picture. That clasp opens to have two distinctive parts, one that links in to the other. It’s unusual and lovely and looks like another charm.

When the clasp is open, the charms and glass beads can be pulled off the bracelet so you can change the order or add and remove them to personalise it to your own style.

The only downside to the bracelet is that it is a one-sized bracelet, and I found it quite tight fitting on my large-ish wrists. But most watches and bracelets usually sit quite tightly on my arm, so if you’re blessed with delicate bones, or even normal sized wrists, it won’t be a problem at all. Even so, I can still close it – it just doesn’t jangle on my arm.

Apart from the actual appearance, the presentation is nice enough too. Each bracelet comes in a sealed see-through bag, with a ‘Cutey’ tag attached to it with black ribbon. It’s all very elegant and pretty, and at that price, is a total steal.

Today is your last chance to order from Amazon in time for Christmas delivery (you'll be paying £5.99 for the privilege too) and if you're stumped for something a little special for a Peppa Pig fan then this silver Peppa Pig locket may just save your bacon (perhaps I shouldn't use the word bacon and pig (Peppa) in the same sentence!)

• Click HERE to take a look at the silver Peppa Pig Locket

I had a silver locket when I was little and I loved it; I loved that I could keep something 'secret' in it that no one else could see unless I chose to show it to them.

The locket itself is oval in shape and features Peppa Pig on the front wearing a little red dress, which adds a nice splash of colour, and the chain is a 35.5cms silver trace chain.

The original price for this silver Peppa Pig locket is £34.65, Amazon have reduced it down to £10.64 and you have until 2pm to order it and select next day express delivery to ensure it's with you in time for Christmas day.

Well, off you go then! Hanging around here isn't going to make sure you get one in time to wrap up for your special Peppa Pig fan now is it!

Bambino Beads sell customised necklaces, bracelets and lunch bag key rings for boys and girls.

Put something individualised in a stocking this Christmas

• Discount: 10%
• Valid On: Everything
• Expires: 30 November 2011
• Discount Code: PPNov11

Bambino Beads make handmade children's jewellery to order, making it the perfect gift for children. The jewellery is suitable for children aged 3 and over and the clasps are magnetic fasteners, meaning children can take them on and off themselves, and making them safer should they snag on something.

Products are available online and are delivered in a gift box, ready to be handed over or for storing when not in use.

Each design includes pretty ladybirds, butterflies, flowers and even silver ladybird or pirate charms.

While the necklaces (from £13.50) and bracelets (from £5.85) are lovely, especially the bright and cheerful ‘Oona’ style, with its yellow ladybirds, but I love, love, love the lunchbag keyrings. My daughter’s nursery requires labels in all her clothing, but I really don’t like putting labels in everything – she goes through clothes so quickly I’ll spend every evening sewing – totally not my thing. These ‘keyrings’ clip onto the clothing (or bags or whatever) and unclip again, easy-peasy. It’s not full proof for having items taken but should prevent simple loss or picking up the wrong thing. They’re £7.50 each, or £6.75 with the PlayPennies Exclusive discount.

.Friendship Bracelets from Crayola Project Kits are on sale at Amazon for £2.33, a healthy 52% off the usual £4.88.

• Craft a friendship bracelet together with Amazon and Crayola

I'm a sucker for anything crafty or anything that gets children creating. So this little project kit seems like a bit of fun for an hour or so, at a very good price.

The kit comes with 80 different beads so you can create a few different bracelets (there are 40 pony beads and 40 star and heart beads), foam flower shapes and over 16 meters of ribbons and braiding threads. It also includes elastic and a comprehensive instruction leaflet should imagination start to dwindle.

Amazon reviews for the Friendship Bracelets are mixed with some feeling that it was too fiddly for children, and others saying that it kept the children busy for hours.

Because of small parts and somewhat fiddly assembly it is not for children under 6 years, although most reviewers used it with their little ones as young as five.

This funky 4-headed interchangeable Toy Story themed watch is currently £5.46 instead of £8.99, saving you 39%

• Tick over here for this fun little watch

You do sometimes have to wonder if there's anything those marketing types over at Disney/Pixar won't come up with when it comes to children's hit shows. But at the same time, they probably wouldn't be spurred on to creating if we weren't so keen on buying!

Buzz, Woody, Rex and one of those funny little 'you saved our lives' aliens are back again, and this time they're on the face of a watch. The resin band is a standard children's length, and 15mm in width. It features Woody and Buzz prominently on the strap, and has a digital time display to which you can attach each of the four 'heads'.

The Toy Story watch is water resistant to about 30 metres, which is pretty decent for a children's watch, and it has a one year manufacturer's warranty.

It's Amazon, so don't hang about as the price could change at any moment. To ensure delivery by the 24^th, you'll need to choose First Class postage.
