Yes, I realize that it's barely September and hardly time for holiday gift giving but here's the deal. Just when October comes to a close and pumpkin lattes are being pushed aside for eggnog, I unexpectedly lose my ability to hand pick well-designed goods for loved ones. As such, I'm proactively creating a visual reminder for myself, as well as you - of course - just in case you need a little creative boost at the last minute. Just in case.
