For me gift giving is a mix - of Art, Books, Store and Thrifted finds.

An unexpected piece of home decor, art in any form, create a gift basket: personal care (perfume, lotions, face masks), nail care (polishes, remover, accessories, stick-on nails, salon gift card) paper-goods (notebooks, pads, stationary), candles (different scents, shapes, tealight holder and tealights), plants (small plants with a watering can), baked goods (loaf of bread or cookies with a cook book), Matchbooks have become pieces of art - pair with a pretty dish. I never tire of gifting books. A Multitool is always handy. Darn Tough socks live up to their name. Watches for those who still wear them. Oh this speaker is terrific. Beer Making can be a ton of fun. Any of these toys are ready to spark imaginative play!

I hope these suggestions have inspired you!

Over the last few years - especially through Instagram we’ve all become familiar with designers from across the pond. I have books in the Chalet’s permanent collection showcasing these amazing interiors I thought I’d share a few. Remember friends the Holidays are coming! Books are amazing gifts!

I am a huge fan of all things India Hicks… and this book A Slice of England celebrates not only her own home in Britain but, her parents beautiful home designed by her brilliant father Interior Designer David Hicks.

Since discovering so many wonderful designers I was thrilled to find so many shared in New English Interiors. This book is packed with inspirational images.

I have been drooling waiting to get this book from the exceptional design team of Mary Graham and Nicole Salvesen. A New English Style does not disappoint!

I hope you find inspiration and beauty in these books - I know I do - as well as following many of these creatives on Instagram. Til next time be well and I’ll see you over on the Gram!
