Have you seen our recent gift guides for Friends + Family and Kids? If we had done one for Sisters + Best Friends, in addition to our amazing made-in-Sweden trays that I am OBSESSED with, I might have suggested to include a piece of jewelry–like this pretty little heart necklace or this one called Peaceful Girl with a Fist (love the name) or this beaded beauty. And these super cute slippers she’ll live in! For the guys, I am thinking about cardboard cutouts to sit in the stands at their favorite football team’s stadium when they can’t be there, and a certain someone has already hinted at liking this vest. The most unlikely winner of a grownup gift just might be a simple photo album from this crazy year so we can be sure to remember the bright spots.

I have been seeing these porcelain pens cropping up on Instagram lately, and I can’t wait to try one out for a few special gifts this year. 

This weekend, I cannot wait to make the Pepparkakor recipe from our Recipe Booklet. The baked gingerbread smell is like filling the whole house with pure joy. This little booklet is our small but meaningful way of giving back this holiday season. All proceeds ($17 per purchase) goes to No Kid Hungry, an organization working to end childhood hunger by helping launch and improve programs that give all kids the healthy food they need to thrive. I love the idea of pairing the booklet with a set of napkins or cocktail napkins or my aforementioned beloved trays.
