A Holiday Wish List

Holy cow – winter is almost here! Time to get a jumpstart on that Christmas and Hanukkah shopping. So what's at the top of our holiday wish list this year? Here are my
crushworthy picks. (Please tell Santa.)

Vivabox
 
 
Such a fabulous concept! You pick a theme (massage, beauty, tea, gourmet, wine, etc.) and the recipient enjoys the gift, and gets to choose another gift from a menu of items that they can redeem at a later date. It’s a personal gift with the freedom of choice. They just came out with a photography box, which is a great present for new parents (you’ll be able to blow up your baby’s photo to a canvas sized shot!).

Little Giraffe Chenille Throw
 
 
 

Both my little ones are obsessed with their Little Giraffe “loveys” – and I can see why! This adult-size version is like a slice of heaven – unbelievably soft and cozy. I wish I had this during those late night feedings, but it will work just as well snuggling up on the couch next to my sweetie.

Jennifer Fisher Jewelry
 


Dear Husband, all I want for Christmas is a necklace from Jennifer Fisher. Something personalized… throw in a couple of fun and funky charms… and I’m good for the rest of the year. I’ll help you pick it out since her collection is like a candy store for me!

 
 

 J. Crew 



From preschool to playdates, this cashmere hoodie is just the thing for the new mom. Cozy, comfortable and yet still chic at the same time.

  Wonderful Graffiti 



This is such a creative way to decorate any wall in your house – from the nursery, to the playroom, to the kitchen. Choose from quotes (or make up your own), monograms, or designs – I want a bunch of different ones to put all over! I even love their holiday inspired ones as a simple way to deck the halls this season.

 
 

  Design Within Reach 



This swing made from teak wood will take my kids through the preschool years and up – they’ll never outgrow this one… and neither will I. I could just see this in our backyard for years to come, as its beautiful simplicity will last forever.

  My Dutch Bike 



Yes, it’s a pricey bike – but think of all the gas I’ll be saving when riding around town to the grocery store, the farmer’s market, and my son's preschool! Oh, please, Santa! I’ve been a good girl this year.
