So is anyone else absolutely convinced that it’s really a chilly September and someone’s just playing a really big practical joke on the world? How could the year have flown by so quickly? How could two weeks from today be Christmas and it’s even less than that until Hanukah starts?
What’s the most popular Christmas wine? The answer to the last is “But I don’t like Brussels sprouts!”
*pausing while you think about it and giggle like I did*
As for the other two questions, well, your guess is as good as mine.
But, until we hear that it is a giant conspiracy, according to the calendar the holidays are fast approaching so we need to make sure we’re ready for it. I know I’m sure not, how about you?
Now's the time to do that final list check. I'll wait. *humming something cheerfully holidayish* Are you done? Did you check it twice, because that always seems to work for the jolly guy. No? I’ll wait again. *humming again what IS that song? Now it’s stuck in my head, darnit.* Oh thank goodness you’re back! I missed you! Okay now, did you check? Have you forgotten anyone? Did you get something for your family, friends, teachers, hair stylists, bosses, secretaries, dog walker, house keeper, neighbor, mail carrier, piano teacher, babysitter, dance teacher, coach, host or hostess, and anyone else you want to treat this time of year? Did you remember stocking stuffers, too?
If this quiz has you grinning at your e-mail smugly, then what kind of a pod person are you? Christmas is still two whole weeks away! On the other hand if you're like the rest of us normal people - stop laughing, I could be normal, I choose not to be - you're nowhere near finished. There's still time for us to ship you the perfect gift, if someone on your list likes funny, pretty, silly, unique, interesting, special, unusual, thought provoking gifts. If they don't, well, sorry! You're on your own.
What is the best xmas present in the world?
A broken drum, you just can't beat it!
Get it? You can’t beat it? HA! :)
If you don’t feel like giving someone a broken drum ... here are just a few suggestions for that hard to shop for person on your list! (And really, you’re surviving the holidays, don’t you deserve a treat too?)
Pretty Tools - I know you’ve heard me say it before ... so I’ll say it again anyway! These really are the perfect gift. Give a desk set to your co-worker. Give a set of tools to your niece who’s off at college. Give Gardening Tools to your great aunt. They really are perfect for just about anyone. Great as stocking stuffers or as the main attraction under the tree. Prices range from $3.95 - $11.95

Chimes - We finally got our shipment of Light Opera Glass Chimes in, and my goodness they’re pretty in the window with the sun shining in. The ones outside are chiming in the wind and sound gorgeous too! They go perfectly on a patio, porch, in a tree, inside by a window or air grate, or really anywhere. I love the fact that they can hook together, so start with one this year and if it’s a hit you’ll be able to add on another one next year! Prices start at $21 for the Small

Terra Décor - Looking for something so unusual but so useful at the same time? Check out the gorgeous line of Terra Décor Steel Hangers for plants, Eycatchers, Chimes, or anything else you could want to hang. Made to go outside but equally useful inside, they’re even on clearance sale right now! Fairies, Dragonflies, Butterflies, Hummingbirds, Roses ... Prices range from $12 - $35

And last, but certainly not least, I mention them all the time for a reason ...
Pot Bellys - These little boxes are still one of my best sellers and it’s easy to see why. With musicians, artists, authors, great thinkers, dictators, royalty, presidents, first ladies, dogs, cats, horses, owls, the list goes on and on ... and on, and it’s easy to find one that fits just about everyone on your list! Price just $15ea

How about a Faerie Purse Hanger for every stocking of someone who carries a purse? (I’m not judging.) These are only a few suggestions, our web site has over 1100 pages of great ideas (and three pages that have some not so great ideas just so you don’t get complacent) but mostly the site is full of gifts that would be perfect for SOMEone on your list, and if not, maybe you need to expand your list? Just a thought. lol

If we have it in stock, you'll have it in time. Right now our turn around time is 48 hours or less. We’ll also ship it right to your recipient if you’d prefer and cut out the middleman or woman.
With all the holiday shopping our stock is still doing well, but if you wait any longer you increase the chances we’ll be sold out of that one thing you’re looking for.
No matter what or even if you’re celebrating, we hope you’re safe and healthy.
From our family to yours, thank you so much for your business throughout the year,
and we hope you have a very Happy Hollydays!
As always, please let me know if there's anything you’re looking for or anything I can help with.
Sunshine & Smiles, Jules
