guy gifts


image by ericka mcconnell

Guys...you gotta love em BUT aren't they kind of annoying to shop for?..i think so..its usually really boring stuff..but i have scoured and found some good gets..
indoor/outdoor slippers by Ugg, i like the grey color

i am loving mr.lumberjack sherpa lined shirt by you know who
these are being purchased, hand cast bronze with distressed leather cufflinks by billy kirk

i think you can't go wrong with a hat (kind of like new socks too) anyway, i have been informed that beanies are what they want..but i heart the furry guy in the middle! (patagonia, llbean, prana)

great t-shirts at billy reid, they all have a "southerness" to them..which makes me swoon.

for the green boy..wooden shell for his most precious possession found here

a magazine subscription to an out of the ordinary read

the game-on pant, has pockets for safe-keeping stuff fit better than the avg sweatpants, found here

you might think this is a weird gift, but its going to my dad, as we adore doing puzzles together especially during family time (its selfishly a way to get way from it all!) these extra thick wooden puzzles have the coolest shapes and should be a great time suck! found here

i think with at least one of these gifts your husband, dad, brother, grandfather, boyfriend, whatever else..will be really happy with you!

holiday greetings


i stopped by the paper source yesterday in search for my holiday cards i am sending out..and i was so distracted by all the glitter, toys, gifts, stickers and how to workshops..i ended up spending an hour in there and had the best time!

pretty rubber stamp
the photo card i went with..colors look good with the shot i am using

bought this wall calander..couldn't resist the elephant and the block print looking february month!
they showed me how to work this heat embosser..so darn cool with rubber stamps and glitter the outcome is beautiful..i passed though, i don't have the time to handcraft all my cards!
