Gift Guide
My brother-in-law once told me that I am an excellent gift giver (the only compliment he’s ever given me - I’m not kidding.), and I have to say I truly love giving gifts. I love paying attention to my loved ones all year long and coming up with person specific gifts that I know will be useful and that they will appreciate.
Here are a few fun gift ideas for the special people in your life.
Gifts for your stationary loving friends:
Have a little Pun Postcards ($10). Punny postcards for anytime of the year!
Bibliophile Notecards ($11). For the book lover in your life, these fun notecards have book illustrations on them.
Marimekko Postcards ($13). For the more modern correspondent.
Metal Pencil Sharpener ($9). A must have for a pencil user!
CW Pencil Deep Cuts Sampler Set ($12). CW Pencil Ent. brings out the office supply nerd in me. Seriously, things like this make me giddy! All kinds of pencils for all kinds of people. Last year they collaborated with Gold Teeth Brooklyn to make a ceramic pencil ornament… I bought it for Isla’s annual Christmas Eve ornament gift. She loved it!
Bookish Gifts:
Personal Library Kit ($18). Do you lend out your books to friends? Make sure they return them with this fun kit.
Vintage Library Jigsaw Puzzle ($17). Puzzles have been hard to come by this year. Check out this fun bookish puzzle… See any of your favorite titles?
Pride and Prejudice Stickers ($2). Fun stickers to add to your water bottle!
Personalised Harry Potter Bookmark ($6). Do you know a HP lover? Personalize a bookmark with their name and school house. If you haven’t logged into Pottermore.com and taken the quiz to find out which house you are in… What are you waiting for?!?
Custom Leather Bookmark ($11). For the more refined book lover.
Pemberley Shirt ($16). Yes, please!
Old Book Pages Candle ($19). Love the smell of library books? This candle is for you!
Cozy Gifts:
Thymes Frasier Fir Candle ($30). I picked up one of these candles at Yuba Blue in downtown Grass Valley, CA, but you can purchase them online as well. The best smelling candle for fall/winter. Smells of trees. Not overwhelming.
Smartwool Women's Cozy Cabin Crew ($25). Everyone needs good quality socks!
HUE Women’s Cotton Legging ($27). Highly rated leggings for around the house or under your favorite tunic.
Cotton Headed Ninny Muggins Mug ($29). Elf. Need I say more?
Fresh Olive Wreath ($76). A beautiful wreath you can hang for the holidays and keep up as it dries.
In-case-I-have-a-wealthy-benefactor-I-don’t-know-about Gift:
Sony Alpha A6100 Mirrorless Camera. I got my first nice SLR camera at age 23 (my golden birthday!). It has treated me well, but technology has changed so much over the last 12 years (you do the math). I am looking forward to getting an updated camera someday!
I hope this list has helped and inspired you in your thoughtful gift giving this year.
