Top 10 Gift Ideas

Still wondering what to get for your holiday or event gifts? Here are some suggestions put together to make your shopping easier.
1.  2-Section Wine Bag – For those wine aficionados on your list, this 2-section wine bag come in faux leather and can hold two bottles of wine. For extra oomph, include two bottles of their favorite wine.
2.  Brooches – One of the biggest sellers this year are brooches. Once thought of as “old-lady” jewelry, brooches are coming back into fashion in a big way! The styles vary greatly, and the more bling the better. 
3.  Gift Baskets – Always in vogue, especially for a group of people, family or office – a gift basket is a considerate way to say “Thank You,” and is always full of so many different items it’s fun to see all the goodies. 
4.  Religious Gifts – December is the holiday month, and these holidays usually center on a religious theme or tradition. A Christian cross, Jewish menorah, or Kwanzaa decoration would make an appropriate gift. 
5. Personalized Baby Blankets – A newborn or young child loves to attach themselves to a special toy or blanket. Giving a blanket personalized with their first name, along with a stuffed animal, could create a lifelong memory and friend. 
6. Personalized Pub Signs or Team Plaques – No matter what sport the man (or woman) on your list is interested in, there are plaque and signs that will probably fit into their favorite theme. Create a lasting conversation piece by having their name and favorite team inscribed in a frame or plaque. 
7. Picture Frames – Personalized or not, a photo frame encases a flash image of a special moment frozen in time. There isn’t a person alive who doesn’t feel touched when presented with a special picture frame, especially if you include a special picture. 
8. Personalized Gifts – A gift inscribed with initials or names makes the receiver feel special – that you cared enough to take the time to give them something personal – and not just picked up something at the last minute. There is such an assortment to choose from that can be personalized – dresser boxes, business card cases, jewelry, etc. 
9.  Home Décor Items – Fireplace screens, fountains, Tiffany-style lamps, Stained Glass Panels, and artwork make wonderful and useful gifts that will appeal to all sorts of tastes. This could include kitchen or host/hostess items for new tenants, young people in college, or newlyweds. 
10.  Jewelry – All women love jewelry! Many men do too. Although brooches are a specific type of jewelry, jewelry as a category is always a coveted gift idea. Depending on their lifestyle, there are cuff links, necklaces, dog tags, watches, bracelets, earrings, etc. as well as boxes to put store them in. Many items can be personalized.
