Gift for the traveller

posted September 22, 2010   category » gift giving
I am just back from a road trip vacation.  Though being away is nice, there is nothing like one's own bed.  I have to share with you this idea my sweet daughter did for us.  Before we left, she stopped over with the most adorably decorated gift bag showing all modes of travel.  Inside she had put Popcorn to pop in a hotel microwave, large cups to hold the popcorn, tea bags, hard candies, granola, napkins and wipes, and a small candle in glass to perfume a stuffy room.  We made use of everything in that thoughtful bag.  So next time you know of someone taking a trip, why not do the same?

I am a big fan and owner of Steuben Glass. Since we stopped at the Corning Museum, this will be my site to share in this blog.

Wedding Gift Idea

posted September 22, 2010   category » gift giving

A friend and her husband gave a thoughtful wedding present for my second wedding.  The gift was a beautiful basket holding 2 wine glasses, a bottle of wine, and a gift certificate to be used at any Marriott Hotel.  The attached note said it was to be used for "Our First Anniversary".  What a perfect gift for a couple who did not need any of the typical "just starting out" gifts.  What a wonderful gift to look forward to and enjoy it we did!

Presentation is everything!

....brown paper packages tied up with strings, these are a few of my favorite things.... Anticipating what is inside a beautifully wrapped gift is part of the receiving process. I loved Christmas morning when finally allowed out of my room to see what Santa had left. So many pretty packages under the tree greeted me! I loved to look and shake and guess what surprise each pretty parcel may hold. I love receiving packages with lovely bows to untie. A dear friend of mine gives such creative baskets of gifts. My daughter and I look forward to our birthday baskets each year from Nancy. So next time you gift a gift put some thought into how you want to present it. That extra special touch will make the experience extra special.

The joy of giving. When we love, we give.We love to give to those we love. Planing on what gift to give lets us reflect on what our relationship to that person is like. How much we care about that person dictates how much effort we want to go through in f

My first blog

posted September 22, 2010   category » gift giving

Hi! I am Linda of "Lindy's Cove" (www.lindyscove.com). I started this company in April after being downsized in the Corporate World. So..... since I love people and I love giving gifts, why not try an online gift store? I truly believe gift giving is an art. People have always loved the gifts I have given them. I love the search for the "special" gift for that "special" person. One way to be a successful gift giver is to listen. For example, one friend of mine said how she loved alpacas and was looking for a necklace of one but could not find it anywhere. I squirreled that info away and a few months later I came across a silver alpaca necklace on Ebay. Karen was especially happy with her Christmas present that year!

I have used Ebay on many an occasion to find that rare gift. My husband has a love of Lithuanian books. I was able to get a whole set of Lithuanian Encyclopedias. He was thrilled!

In this blog, I hope to share some gift giving ideas and ways to become the perfect gift giver. I hope it helps with all your gift giving!

Linda
