I have been cracking my head on what to get my nephew this Christmas. He is 17 years old and loves music. He composes his own songs and as a matter of fact he just uploaded his music to tune core. I was at Modcloth yesterday and am contemplating getting him a music related gift such as this cute CD player as well as a tuner and alarm clock. Pretty cool huh?
Have you got all your presents wrapped? If you have not, you may want to check out these lovely wrapping papers from Mr. Boddington. Oh how I adore them. These wrapping papers are hand-drawn and printed in flat matte. So if you are thinking of doing something different with the presents for your friends and loved ones, do get some of these colourful wrapping papers. You won’t go wrong with them. Just top them with a red ribbon or a d-i-y gift topper.
I have been invited to a birthday party which will be held in two weeks’ time. It is the birthday of my friend’s 16 year old son. Been shopping around for a birthday gift and I was told that he is very into music. He is a good guitar player so I thought perhaps I should get him this cool-looking Ecko Unlimited Impact Headphone from Iwantoneofthose.com and also a guitar pick holder.
Once I am done collecting some awesome navy challenge coins, I am going to get myself this pair of cool Reflexology Foot Massage Socks. I love having my foot massaged and with this socks, I know which pressure point to press in order to stimulate my vital organs. It is pretty fun I must say. This pair of socks make a good gift too. Available at Spiral and Circle Gift shop.
If you are fond of using paper food bags, then you may want to take a look at Foodbag from Unikia.com. It is 100% reusable and is made of BPA-Free silicone. FoodBag is dishwasher safe and can be rolled for more compact storage. A very practical and gorgeous alternative to the large and bulky lunchbox.
I love this simple textile which I saw at Art & Article. This large furoshiki cloth can be used as an apron, a tote for carrying groceries and produce, a bread bag, something to transport potluck and meals, a table cloth or even a reusable gift wrap. The possibilities are endless. I would love to get a few and use them as gift wrap. Actually I would love it if someone were to gift me a Furoshiki. I can do so much with it.

If you want to move away from the usual stripes or polka dots wrapping paper, then try something new like this Creepy Wrapping Paper Book from Mcphee.com. Not for the faint-hearted though.
I have been cracking my head on what to get for my cousin’s birthday next month. He is throwing a party to celebrate his 30th birthday. Since he loves to play the guitar, I thought it would be nice to get him something that is related to it. I was browsing the online shops and found some guitar strap locks which I think he would like. I also saw this cute guitar pendant from Merrin & Gussy which is just perfect for a music lover. I think I want to give him not one but a few gifts this time.

My dear friend’s husband is turning 40 next month. My friend will be throwing a birthday party for him and also inviting some close friends and family members. He loves music and would sometimes join his friends at the local bar for some jamming sessions. My friend is getting him a moog synthesizer for his coming birthday. I am thinking of getting him this really cute Crosley Cruiser Portable Turntable from UrbanOutffiters. I think it is just perfect for a music lover.
