Greetings Gift-Givers!
Hi gift-givers! Today’s email is an everlasting gobstopper of gift inspiration. There are plenty of links so you can go from “I’m stumped on a gift for them” to “Ohhhh I can’t wait to see their face” by the time you get to the bottom of this email.
One-ish more thing(s)
before today’s gift ideas
I’m in the final stages of publishing a new e-guide for gift-giving in new relationships. It provides tips and gift suggestions meant to instill confidence and save those in new relationships time & stress when it comes to gift-giving.
If you know someone who would benefit from this guide AND would be willing to connect with me to provide feedback before I publish a final version, please reply to this email and I’ll provide them a free digital copy.
Estimated read time: 2 minutes & 51 seconds
Gift idea time! Here’s a story of a
great gift to spark your creativity
The “movie prop replica" Gift:
I love National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation and would always comment on the scene where they’re drinking eggnog from the moose mugs. One year my husband surprised me with 2 sets of my own moose mugs so now it’s our Christmas Morning tradition to drink juice from them before we open presents.
Why this gift is great
Lighthearted
Conveys “I know you”
Constant source of joy

After receiving 🎁 The important person you’re forgetting, Susie sent me an email sharing the following self-gift tradition that she’s adopted:
Whenever I buy something extra special online, I have it gift-wrapped and send myself a note. We recently invested in nice bedding, and I added a note wishing many years of Sunday snuggles. When I purchased myself fancy sunglasses, I added a note to celebrate the moment I worked hard for. It's a great reminder to celebrate things we take for granted.
