GIFT SET IDEAS!



"It is better to give than to receive" is one of my favorite quotes. I especially love to mail surprise gifts to my friends and family.
There are some amazing GIFT ideas available from Etsy.com I thought I would take today's blog time to recognize a few of my favorites.



This cute little Gift Set is a great idea for Pet Owners - offered by LuckyDogTreatCompany, this set included specially formulated flea powder and doggie soap and comes carefully wrapped in a cute box set.

I love the unique packaging on this Baby T-shirt gift set. In this set you'll receive three totally hip baby onesies in a keepsake wooden gift box (the crafty mom could do SO much with this box!) There are lots of designs to choose from and are available for $40.00 at handmadejig.etsy.com

It always stinks when you can't be with a friend on their birthday, but how about sending them a GIFT SET to let them know you are thinking of them on their special day? This box of birthday cookies is a delectable gift from CAKEBOXCOOKIES.etsy.com

We've had a small taste of SPRING here in Michigan this week. With temperatures rising into the 50's neighbors began venturing outside (most of whom I haven't seen in months!). The kids were able to put their snow pants and boots away for a few days and I was truly tempted to dig out the lawn chairs and pour a glass of lemonade. But....I snapped out of my tropical dream when I heard the weather report of snow headed our way soon. I thought it was fitting that the CABANA BOY Spice Blend was introduced in our shop this month - even with this long winter the CABANA BOY can take you away to Jamaica as you enjoy this mild Jamaican Jerk on chicken or pork. Enjoy!
