Thank goodness for Gift Guides!
They’re everywhere & for everyone!
A virtual treasure trove of thoughtfully edited gift-giving ideas by fabulous bloggers, designers, stylists, and tastemakers is making shopping easier than ever this year.
Here’s a sampling of some of my favorites!
Grace Bonney at Design Sponge is at the top of my list with an assortment of really wonderful ornaments & trimmings for decorating the tree.
Skyla Freeman is a Capitol Hill staffer & former writer for President George W. Bush. From her darling D.C. apartment, Skyla writes her stylish decorating blog - Sanity Fair. Her gift list would be a book-lovers dream!
Paula who writes the darling blog two ellie posted her own children’s wishlists! My kids would be thrilled if I did that. What do you wanna bet the Grands read two ellie too ~
Smart mom.
Sarah Tolzmann who pens one of my favorite blogs, Note To Self has got things covered with gift ideas for the ladies the gents and also the host!
Erin Loechner writes Design for Mankind and has put together a practical gift guide for the brother-in-law, “Because he swears it’s “Dob kit.”
Bonnie Tsang has gathered together a list of great utilitarian gifts for the hands-on kind of girl.
Blair Friedeman at Delight by Design has two lists that caught my eye. One for the “glam girl” who’s practically impossible to shop for and another list for the “natural” entertainer.
At Julie Leah – a life & style blog she’s got the hard-to-buy-for guy all figured out and his preppy girlfriend too!
Gabrielle Blair is a Design Mom who has pulled together a gift guide for doing good! I say she’s already doing good – Just look at her darling family! Check out some of her favorite products that give back.
Thank you so much, Anne!
