These wee teas fit to a T in the palms of your hands. And there’s a nice li’l surprise on the inside rim, which makes for a sweet gift.
Each one is handcrafted porcelain, and then stamped with a “t” on the front. How cute is that?
The sweet wee teas, here. Kind of perfect for your next tea party, don’t you think?

Start your little angel off on the right foot. You don’t want to risk a Muzak-loving disaster in the making. You want a hipster baby!
These CDs transform timeless rock songs into beautiful instrumental lullabies. The charming recordings are sophisticated enough for even for you, yet gentle enough for your bundle of joy.
It’s your solemn duty to embarrass the sweet darling at some point in their lives, but banish the thought of them embarrassing YOU! Horrors. Can you imagine?!

These li’l birdies made me do a happy dance. So sorry you didn’t see that.
Designed in 1959 by Kristian Vedel and still hand-turned in some village in Denmark, each birdie’s head can be positioned so that it takes on some pretty darlin’ expressions … from happy to sad to curious to questioning.

Poor Miss Piggy did a Humpty Dumpty, and it’s your job to put her back together again.
The angel on my shoulder says this is kind of clever; but then that evil twin says, “Why?” Okay, the wicked me has more to say, but we’ll just leave it at that.
Poor Miss Piggy, complete with a tube of glue, right here.

When only a few choice words will do … or sweet nothings … or an invitation … or sharing a secret … or, or, or … you want this. You could even drop a tiny trinket in it for a lovely little thank you. Sugar, the possibilities are endless.
Measuring just 2.5” x 3”, each bottle comes with 3 blank scrolls in 3 colors. The intrigue alone will kill her/him/them.

This is so cute that you’re going to just lay down and die, but don’t. Order it immediately instead. People will thank you for not dying … probably.
I personally think it’s a far better option for cocktail parties, black-tie and all those fancy sequin-y parties we’re constantly going to. It’s got personality, for God’s sake, and not the hum-drum that everybody else has.
And here’s the best part: it’s under $50. I’m not kiddin’.
The absolutely precious Dial 9 bag is here.

I know you know someone that has just killed themselves doing something wonderful yet thankless, survived risky business, or were stupid enough to have just been plain stupid. Give them kudos or make a point. These all-growed-up
merit badges smile or scold just so.
And then of course, there’s this one for that truly deserving person … yep, you guessed it ….

In the olden days, 1886 to be exact, a little book called “Confessions” was a series of questionnaires designed to reveal a person’s soul. Now commonly known as The Proust Questionnaire, it has become a yardstick for interviews, and for revealing a person’s inner put-together.
It’s also a lot a fun to answer … or torture …. depends on how you look at it.
If you’re a rabid fan of the Questionnaire, then you’ll love this gift pack. Here’s what you get → 12 note cards with the Proust Questionnaire logo plus envelopes lined in his handwriting, a copy of his own answers and a notepad that has the full questionnaire on the other side.
The logo on the note card says ‘confessions’, you know.

Lose the bear squeeze bottle thing. Toss it now. There’s not a moment to lose. That’s not honey, honey, just a cheap, tawdry imitation. You owe it to yourself to use the real stuff. Your taste buds will sing.
Bet you didn’t know that bees have five eyes. Crazy, right? The sweet little creatures are also directly responsible for over 80% of all vital pollination, which accounts for more than 2/3 of the food we eat.
These beekeepers do it right, do it pure, do it beautifully. There are all sorts of varieties to choose from, in jars or gift blocks or even sweet little vials with customized corks and hangtags for a party favor or perhaps a wedding favor. Plus they enclose all sorts of fascinating info so you can absolutely charm the pants off someone at your next cocktail party. Personally, I can’t wait to use the five-eye thing.
The 9-vial honey gift block is here; the customized favors are here.

You will covet. You will crave. You will be amazed. You will miss the boat if you don’t act quickly.
Yoran Morvant is one talented guy and is surely going blind soon. An architectural draftsman by day, he places these intricate drawings on stones that are inspired by his landscape drawings.
