gift giving inspiration

I'd like to think of myself as a pretty good gift giver. I do my best to be a friend that listens and in turn I bank details of friends favorite things, or items they might mention in passing, for later on when a gift giving opportunity arises. I also never pass up a great gift, even if I'm buying it six months in advance.

Here are a few of my go-to gifts for friends - easy to find and can be customized and wrapped up pretty with wishes for a wonderful holiday season...

{ a pretty desk calendar }

{ a candle with a rich seasonal scent }

{ a decadent treat like these peanut butter bites }

{ a cool phone accessory like this (real) marble case }

{ a set of stationery, even better -personalize it! }

{ a festive polish }

{ a piece of serving ware for holiday parties }

And here are a few other ideas....

- a gift certificate to an awesome local restaurant

- a bottle of bubbly
(LCBO will take it back without a receipt if champagne isn't really their thing)

- a box of cookies from your favorite local bakery

- a beautiful festive floral arrangement
