Political Gifts

Muky — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 23:14:16 -0500

A political game perhaps? Probably not nearly the visual impact of the Hillary Nutcracker, but might be easier on your fingers? About.com has many, and there's one called "Dimension Defender."

Hi All

Well, for Hanukkah my favorite gift is a new menorah for my collection, or a dreidel. I just love them.

Last year I got a few and they all decorate my living room, (keeping them clean is not a hassle as they are all behind glass). This is my recommended place for menorahs. Enjoy :)

DESIGNER HOSTESS BAGS WITH A TWIST – THEY’RE YOURS!

Fiona — Sat, 16 Feb 2008 01:28:34 -0600

Incredibly original I ideas, I love them all! I especially think that wine bags are making hits everywhere, maybe because of the popularity of wine tasting parties. Going these days without an original wine bag to a tasting is certainly un-etiquette.

I recently came across some really wild and crazy designs over at winebags.com. As the name implies they specialize in wine bags. The have fabric and neoprene and some very unique designs styles, especially the fabric styles which come with tassel, sequin, satin and leather trims. The other interesting idea at Winebags is that you can design your own bags. By becoming a hostess of your own Winebags Wine Tasting Party you and your friends end up designing your own bags for hostess gifts at other parties.

I certainly think these bags should be considered as they too would make ideal hostess gifts for wine tastings. Here’s their link: http://www.winebags.com and you can email them at wines@winebags.com.

You can help me some more (smile)

Budding photographer has been getting a lot of compliments on his photos and wants to sell some of them. What steps should he take? Are there pitfalls to watch out for? Thanks in advance for the advice.

Feel-Good Gifts

Bully for you!

Practical ideas to help bring healing and connection to folk in the midst of the busy-ness and bustle of the holidays. Awesome!

Works for the rest of the year, too!

I am overwhelmed with joy that 3 of the 10 have to do with massage and spa. As a massage therapist, that can only help the profession while it is helping your readers!!

If you lived near St Louis you would be getting a Gift Certificate from me for time in my office!!

Those are some great suggestions. I can't believe I haven't seen Ratatouille yet!

I put a list on my blog too, with an emphasis on gifts from Rhode Island, where I live.

I agree!

I agree, those meal-in-a-jar gifts would be good for so many different people!

Thanks for the great ideas! It's always nice to be able to combine a good cause and a gift. Perhaps one of the items you mentioned will show up in your mailbox for your birthday.

Fantastic list, Kalyn. I especially like the bean soup mix idea -- it looks gorgeous, it's healthy, and you don't have to do any complex canning!

Happy holidays,
Lia

I have a beginning photographer on my list and no clue what to give him that wouldn't bust my budget. Thanks for the great ideas!
