This is much better than some message in a bottle. So very subtle, too. A take no prisoner’s approach, which touches my Texan heart.
Watch this little story unfold …
Hand engraved lettering with a hinged book cover. The pages and chain are sterling. All by Digby and Iona.
Puts the world on notice, doesn’t it? You’ll either start a conversation or stop it in its tracks, which ain’t such a bad thing, you know.

It’s Palm Wonderful, this sale.
The cute li’l elves over at Fifty Third Street have been tippling some Christmas Cheer, it seems. Let’s not judge; let’s take advantage of their joyful tippling! The munchkins have decided to do a Christmas Punch on Palm Reader with a 20% off offer for you. Yes, you.
Here’s what the brilliant copy says:
A true collectible and very cool to boot, these vintage palm reading cards from the turn of the last century (!) were collectible then, and even more so now. They were like baseball cards and came as premiums in smokes.
Ten cards in a floating frame. The front gives you the palm part; the back gives you the meaning …. and perhaps your future!
Each palm prophet is one-of-a-kind, so it’s extra special. Includes detailed explanation of the history.
And now it’s 20% off! They’ve lost their minds. The picture just doesn’t do this justice; it’s the perfect gift for that person that has simply everything. It’s the coolest thing I’ve seen in quite some time, and chickens, I’ve seen it all.
Did I say 20% off? Okay, just making sure you’re plugged in. Use this code at check-out: save20. It’s case-sensitive, just so you know. I know, I know.
xxooxxo,
BobbiePen.
Such a great Joy Gift, stocking stuffer or just-because gift. These playing cards are almost frame worthy they’re so cool. You could do that, too.
Silvery cards that’s all the rage this season, for $12, here.
Aesop’s Fables, so you can get all literary while you gamble your life away, here. A sure bet at only $9.
I. Hardy cards. Check out those eyes. Another set for only $9.
And then, there are these gorgeous watercolor painted cards, and for only 10 bucks! Laid end-to-end, they create a panorama that’s some kind of wonderful, here.
I myself have ordered one of each set. Just couldn’t help myself.
xxooxxo,

This thing is just ingenious. Designed by Sebastian Bergne, It’s called a Candle Pin. Here’s what you do: take all different and assorted sizes of candles and shove them securely onto the pins. Pretty dramatic, which is what we’re all after, after all. The candles seem to be floating, which is a pretty fine trick, if you ask me.
Can you imagine several of these together? Ah, the beauty of it all. Better than a crackling fire, especially since the fireplace ain’t so portable. So I say masses of these for the ultimate punch factor. And don’t forget that we all look better by candlelight, chickens.
Oh, and did I mention they’re on SALE? Yes, yes they are.
xxooxxo,

Paper cocktail napkins will just not do this time of year. I don’t care how cute, how easy, how convenient they are; this time of year is about trotting out all of your best stuff. Don’t have any best stuff? Time, then to be all grown up and get some best stuff.
Embroidered cocktail napkins so beautiful and pristine, it will make your guests mind their P’s and Q’s and act right.
These are all hand-embroidered in Madeira on the finest Belgian linen, from Sharyn Blond Linens. Definitely keepsake worthy.
Now, if your guests just can’t act right no matter how many of those meaningful looks you give them or have had the audacity to lug their children from hell over for some reason lost to you (since they weren’t invited), you have every right to serve your Christmas Cheer on one of these and watch their heads twist off their bodies:
“Unattended children will be given a shot of espresso and a free puppy.” Serves them right, the heathens. Get them here.
xxooxx,

Who ever heard of serving bowls inspired by 18th century hair styles?! Gotta love it. These amazing porcelain bowls, aptly named Marie Antoinetta by artist Marta Giardina are produced and hand painted in Italy. AND they complement her equally amazing Louis dinnerware.
Clean, crisp and with curlicues. Perfection.
Serving bowls, here.
Dinnerware, here.
