Gift Guide: for the home

If Santa had all the money in the world, and I somehow made it to the top of his "nice" list, I'd be asking for the following: 

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

Oh, and speaking of gift guides, I picked up Crimson Cup's Winter Wonderland (that I blogged about the other day) - as in 8 bags of it. 

Gift Guide: for the coffee drinker

 Happy Friday!! We made it; we actually made it! It was a close call though. Next week is Thanksgiving week (obviously), which means that the Holidays are officially almost here!! Now that it's nearly official, let's talk Gift Guides. Lots and lots of guides. They're everywhere: on websites, on blogs, in magazines, on TV. It's only fitting that I share my first of the season. One of my favorite thing about the cold Holiday season?? WARM drinks.

**If you haven't tried the Brown Sugar Whipped Cream, you MUST. It's delicious. Even Christopher puts it on his coffee. In all my married life I've never seen the man drink anything but black coffee- until, that is, we found Brown Sugar Whipped Cream!!! To.Die.For. 

One more suggestion- my favorite coffee. I could drink it all year long. Hint, hint, Crimson Cup. Seasonal-schmeasonal.

Gift Guide: For the Perpetually Cold Individual

Gift Guide: For the Perpetually Cold Individual by kellyfrankel on Polyvore.com

Considering I spend most of the winter wearing my North Face around the house (and even to bed some nights), this gift guide is especially applicable to me! I should note that the book is not likely to keep me warm, but it sounds intriguing, and I will be reading it over Christmas break!

Gift Guide: For the Writer, Reader, and Paper Lover

Gift Guide: For the Writer, Reader, and Paper Lover by kellyfrankel on Polyvore.com

I put together a few items for the avid reader, writer, and paper lover. I'm pretty sure these gifts would go over well because I consider myself to fit into all of those categories, and I would love any of them!! I especially love the crocodile dictionary from Graphic Image. I'm sure some will argue that paper dictionaries are outdated with the advent of dictionary.com, but I think dictionaries and thesauruses (Graphic Image makes those too) are beautiful books, and I would gladly welcome a set into my home any day!

XOXO,

Kelly
