Besides helping a friend to look for heated car seat covers, I am also shopping for hostess gift. My cousin is hosting a dinner party next weekend at her home. It is a family get-together party and I would like to present her with a hostess gift. I was at Jonathan Adler and came across this lovely Elephant Butter Dish. Ain’t that cute? My cousin is an elephant lover like me and I am sure she would like this gift.
If you are looking for something colourful to decorate your home for Christmas, then you may like these Wrapping Paper Ornaments from The Land of Nod. They come in a set of 6 and are just perfect for the Christmas tree. These ornaments are made of paper mache and are hand-painted. Actually I think once Christmas is over, you can use these ornaments for birthday parties because they are not in the traditional Christmas colours.
I am in the mood to give my living room a makeover. I want to repaint the walls to a beige tone and also add some decor accessories around the home. What do you think of the Acid Etched Letters from Urban Outfitters? I bet it would look so nice on my display cupboard, next to all the trophies and awards. It adds a lot of character to my display cupboard.
H is the first alphabet of my family’s last name.

I also like this retro Matryoshka lunch tote which is insulated. Available at Paper-Source.com
