Great collection!!! A great arrangement of different items:)

Nov. 9, 2009 at 2:07 p.m. magickalrealism

If you're lucky, your loved ones keep a favorites list on Etsy - it's so hard to tell what another person will like!

Nov. 9, 2009 at 2:08 p.m. magickalrealism

Gift guides always confuse me a little - it's really hard to generalize what makes a good gift for another person. I prefer interviewing/observing the person I'm buying for. Or checking his/her Etsy favorites.

Nov. 9, 2009 at 2:14 p.m. worksofwhimsy

I gave my husband the birch mug for father's day. It was a great gift.
