It’s raining brides and babies! In celebration of all those April showers that seem to be taking our calendars by storm, we’ve rounded up some gift ideas to give now, or stock up on for events all spring long.

On a quest for a very personal (and picturesque) shower gift? Voilà! Her favorite picture is transformed into a solid gold pendant necklace. Now (thanks to you) she can keep her fiancé, baby or any cherished moment captured on digital film or Kodachrome close at heart, wherever she goes.

Choose from a round or rectangular pendant, and either an angel wing or star charm. Then simply mail or email a photograph to Ginette_ny. They’ll scale it down, add a sepia tone for a vintagey look and print it on the gold pendant. (Our Little Angels collection; $360 for the solid 14 kt gold pendant only or $590 with a charm and 18” diamond-cut chain; allow four weeks for delivery. To order, contact the Ginette_ny Jewelry Bar at 212-627-3763 or ginetteny@aim.com)

Another gift idea that a glamorous bride (or mom) is sure to treasure is this look-at-me Erickson Beamon custom picture frame decked out in glittery Swarovski crystals. Hello, gorgeous! ($2,393, handmade to order at Curve. Call 310-360-8008).
