Military Matters Makes it Easy for Deployed Servicemembers to Send Military Gifts

August 17th, 2009

At Military Matters, we understand that when you’re off saving the world, it can be a little difficult to find and send gifts back home to your loved ones. One of the best things about the products at Military Matters is that we’ve made it easy for deployed (or geographically-separated) service members to send something lovely and unique back home to their spouses, moms, daughters or girlfriends.

We’ve had husbands deployed and we can literally hear the panic from across the miles when they realize that a special date, like a birthday or an anniversary, is only days away. In places like Iraq and Afghanistan, it can be tough to get computer time, and let’s face it, there’s rarely an outlet mall nearby…. Not to worry, with just a few minutes and a few clicks, you can order a fashionable, customized gift for the lady (or ladies) in your life. Military Matters offers a comment section at check-out. After you select your gift, simply leave a message in the comment section for your lady and we’ll include your personalized message with the gift.

Below are a few suggestions for troops who are looking for gifts. For more great ideas, you can click here to see all of our products.

For the military spouse:

Your military spouse will be dazzled by The Annette, an elegant necklace for your elegant bride.

For the military girlfriend:

The Emerson is a fantastic gift for any military girlfriend. It’s fun and funky, but also highly fashionable with its combination of colorful beads, silver and customized disc.

For the military daughter:

Cosmetic cases are the best selling item at Military Matters. All girls, regardless of age, need something to hold their toiletries, or other personal items, and these gorgeous cases are the perfect solution. As with all of our shells and necklaces, you can customize the lettering to suit your daughter. If you’re a Marine Dad, you can have Semper Fi, Oorah, Marines or Marine Brat monogrammed on your daughter’s case. Your daughter will love this special gift from her dad, and she’s sure to use it for years to come.

For the military mom:

Spouses tend to get more focus, but hey, mom raised you and she worries about you, too! That’s why our products include gifts for military moms. You can’t go wrong with The Sarah. It’s our most popular shell and it goes with anything. Brown is definitely the new black and what mom wouldn’t burst with pride if her son (or daughter) sent her The Sarah, which can be customized to read Army Mom, Navy Mom, Marine Mom, Coastie Mom, Guard Mom or Zoomie Mom. There are also other options available. These gifts are great anytime, but keep Mother’s Day in mind.

The products featured above are some of our best selling items and are merely suggestions to make it easy for you to find something quickly.  Click here to see our full range of products.

Happy Shopping!

Military Matters Supports Soldiers’ Angels

July 23rd, 2009

Military Matters is a company that not only offers the military community unique, customized military gifts and military jewelry, but also a company dedicated to giving back to organizations which support military families. That’s why we’ve decided that during our Grand Opening Sale (July 9 - August 31, 2009), we will be donating money from our internet sales to Soldiers’ Angels.

Soldiers’ Angels supports the military community in a myriad of ways. They have projects dedicated to helping deployed service members and their families, wounded troops and they even have a team dedicated to supporting the families of our fallen heroes. Take a moment to look through the list of projects Soldiers’ Angels is involved in. It’s really incredible.

Military Matters is now offering a special Soldiers’ Angels necklace designed specifically to honor the legions of Angels who donate their time and money to help support military families. We’re proud of the Angels and we hope they will be proud to wear this chic, fashionable one-of-a-kind necklace. Through August 31, 2009, Military Matters will donate $3.00 from each sale of a Soldiers’ Angels shell or necklace to Soldiers’ Angels. But we’re not stopping there. We will also donate $2.00 to this fine organization from every internet sale we make through August. If you’re not an Angel and aren’t interested in a Soldiers’ Angels necklace, you can purchase any of our products and Soldiers’ Angels will benefit from all internet purchases through the end of August. With our Grand Opening special (20% off of your purchase), you can do plenty of shopping, save money and help a worthy organization continue the great work they do on behalf of our military community. To take advantage of our 20% off special, simply enter MMGO in the promo code field at check-out.

Thank you, Soldiers’ Angels.

Grand Opening

June 30th, 2009

Roughly three years ago, a military wife found herself in Killeen, Texas for the second time in 12 years. She was invited to a birthday party, so she set out to find a unique gift to bring. Much to her surprise, she couldn’t find anything military-themed that was truly unique, or that she thought the recipient would enjoy. There was a lot of red/white/blue.  Those are, after all, All-American colors, and as the old saying goes, “These colors don’t run.” Our flag is a very important symbol and reminds us of those who have fought so hard to give us the freedoms we enjoy today.  But, red, white and blue are colors that women don’t wear every day. Plus, there’s no reason that you have to proclaim your military pride in terms of red, white and blue.  A gorgeous chocolate brown, customized disc emblazoned with  “Army Wife” will get the job done. And who says a Navy Wife has to wear white or blue? Not so… What’s wrong with pink and brown? Can’t that fashionable combination be used to make a military statement?  The answer, of course, is yes.

Disappointed in the lack of options on her search for the perfect military gift that day in Killeen, this wife began talking with other military wives and found that many of them felt exactly the way she did. Why aren’t there more options available to military wives, moms, daughters,  girlfriends and female service members? Where is the creativity and fashion when it comes to products available to military families?

An idea was born, a long list was made (one that went through dozens and dozens of revisions) and the hard work began. There were a lot of bumps in the road, and much trial-and-error. It took almost three years, but Military Matters has now opened its doors. We want to invite you to walk right in and take advantage of our Grand Opening Special (20% off your entire order).

Military Matters features unique, fashionable items for military spouses, moms, daughters, girlfriends and female service members. We offer fabulous military jewelry and military gifts. We recognize that you are a unique subset of the population and we’ve worked hard to offer some products that you will enjoy wearing and using.

There are 1.1 Million military spouses and countless military mothers, daughters and female service members scattered all across the globe. We think that’s an audience worth reaching.

Thank you for dropping by Military Matters. Poke around the products page and when you find something you just can’t live without, please an order between now and August 31, 2009 and receive 20% off your entire order. Simply use the promo code MMGO at check-out.

We hope you enjoy our products as much as we’ve enjoyed creating them for you!

And if you’re looking for more creative, military-themed products, we’ve found two companies that we really like. The ladies who run these businesses “get it” too:
