The holidays are quickly approaching and if you are anything like me you are already stressing about it. I've come up with three gift ideas that just about anyone would LOVE to receive this year.
First things first, the kids, any kid loves a good craft. A bored kid is a kid that will find trouble so our first holiday "product" isn't really a product at all, its more of an idea. Put together a craft box/bag for your child include markers, glue, glitter, paint, paper, ribbons, scissors, pretty much anything you can find on
crayolastore.com and let them go to town. Then all you parents can go enjoy all your wonderful holiday treasures.
This year, it is all about personalization.
Sticks and Stones Alphabet Photography gives you the opportunity to create a customized keepsake like the one above for anyone on your gift list. I personally love the idea of putting the last name of your recipient on a piece and giving it as a gift to the whole family. Right now they are offering a buy 1 get 1 50% off deal on these one of a kind treasures. PLUS, just for you wonderful readers, if you enter discount/consultant code
CEBGGE at checkout you will get an additional 10% discount off your order. (
Sidenote: want to become a consultant with Sticks and Stones? email me or leave a comment to find out how.)
A candle? Now, that's not original, right? Wrong? Even my husband loves
these candles. They burn a real wood wick that crackles when lit. It really sounds like you are sitting next to a warm, cozy fire and *bonus* they smell great too, just two 10 oz jars are all I need to feel the entire house with the smell of fresh out of the oven frosted cookies (my personal favorite from
Woodwick). A unique and useful gift. One of you lucky readers will win a 10 oz
Woodwick candle from The Virginia Candle Company, to find out how, see below!

Those of us attending #HomeHer10 are super busy attending sessions and parties this weekend so we need to make sure we look good on the go. We've got lots to do, so what better swag than a cute hard-case wallet to do it with. A place to store all your credit cards (for those crazy shopping trips), IDs (to get into all the hottest parties), and business cards to keep up with all the amazing people you meet at #HomeHer10.
