Homemade Holidays

In addition to giving a scarf from Natalie, and some fabulous jewelry from Lindsay, I've collected some other unique ideas to give the usual ho hum gifts a kick in the pants.

A calendar may be played out, but doesn't everyone need one at least once a year? This time, skip the kiosk in mall. You print and arrange these yourself,

The Women's Calendar

And for the guys

Give your happy Democrat something stylish to wear for Inauguration Day

A tie for the gentlemen is so outdated (save it for Father's Day ;) Perhaps an ascot instead? Tell him your "very fashionable friend" Carina forecasted it to be huge in 09~

Last, every pet deserves a gift at Christmas too. Make your furry friend the cutest on the block

When in doubt, shop local!
