Wish List : Sarah at La Maison Boheme

Please join me in welcoming Sarah from La Maison Boheme to greige as our second guest blogger in this years holiday wish list series!  Sarah continues to inspire me everyday.  Enjoy!


Hi there!  I'm Sarah, author of La Maison Boheme.  I am really excited for the holidays this year because my three-year-old son, who delights in all things whimsical and spiritual, is now old enough to "get" Christmas.  Our family loves to give thoughtful, inexpensive gifts and it is with this in mind that I present to you my Christmas Wish List.  Thanks to Christina for inviting me to share! 

1. Odessa Folk Cushions from Plumo
1. These embroidered cushions are so cheery and bright.  I love giving gifts in the dead of winter that contain the promise of spring.


2. Bird Soaps from Lil' Anniebell's
2.  I think these bird soaps are perfect for hostesses, mothers, sisters and girlfriends.  They are adorable, practical and small enough to fit in your luggage if you're traveling for the holidays.


3. Lip Embellishment Gift Set from For Strange Women
3.  Yummy lip balms for the winter months are always the perfect gift. These balms from For Strange Women are especially unique.


Wonder Full Tees by Daydream Believers
4. I would buy any and all of the t-shirts from this spectacular children's collection.  All the tees have inspirational sentiments and charming illustrations.  I'll be picking up quite a few for the kiddos in my life.


Telegram Stationary from Haus Interior
5.  I'm a stationery whore.  I have way too many note cards.  However, these vintage style telegraph cards are the perfect gift for the corespondent in your life.  (Or you could just get them for me!)


Living With What You Love by Monica Rich Kosann
6. This is a beautiful book for anyone who cares about their home.  It is filled with all sorts of lovely inspirations, photos and meditations on using your home as a tool for self expression.


Thomas Paul Peacock Pouch
7. This Thomas Paul Peacock pouch is the perfect gift for sisters, daughters, mothers, friends, co-workers, and on down the list.  You can't go wrong with this sweet little stash-all.


Garden letters from VivaTerra
8. These letters from VivaTerra are completely charming.  When I saw these, I thought of my Mom's farm in Oregon.  She could put them on the side of her barn or in her kitchen or against a fence over looking her garden. 


Door Plaque from Gael Song
9. I always receive this funny little catalogue from Seattle called Gael Song.  Its usually filled with Celtic inspired clothing, music and funny Renaissance Fair get-ups that make me giggle.  But I was browsing through their winter collection and found this simple door plaque.  It would be a lovely hostess gift or a thoughtful gift for new home owners.


Linen Love Napkins from TerreMum
10. And finally, these linen napkins.  Aren't they awesome?  TerreMum also has a set that says "peace".  Perfect for the holidays or any time of year.

Wish List : Shari at Little Blue Deer

Join me in welcoming Shari from Little Blue Deer to greige as our first guest blogger in this years holiday wish list series!  Shari has such a beautiful blog and shares her wonderful talents through blog design.  Enjoy!

Photobucket
It's Shari here from Little Blue Deer! I am a graphic designer specializing in blog design, I'd love it if you would come and check out my elegant and personalized blog designs! I am so delighted to be sharing my Christmas gift guide with Christina's lovely readers! I adore Griege, and I am honored that Christina asked me to post! 




Here are some of the items on my Christmas shopping list this year! (clockwise from top left):




Bottega Veneta driving gloves: Bottega Veneta is my all-time favorite leather goods purveyor, and I adore these gloves because they feature the signature BV weave; a warm and luxurious gift for your favorite fashionista! 




Chanel Black Velvet nail varnish: I love to give trendy nail varnishes as stocking stuffers! This one would be perfect with a little black dress for New Year's Eve! 




Only Hearts chemette: Lingerie is also one of my favorite gifts to give. Some might find it a bit personal, but it's the kind of thing we never buy for ourselves, and therefore makes a fab and thoughtful gift! 




Smythson 'Yummy Mummy' diary: In the age of technology, I still love a classic leather diary or day planner! Smythson is always an ace choice, and they feature a number of whimsical titles, I love 'Yummy Mummy' for your favorite yummy (or slummy!) mum! 




Deer Wearing Gym Socks giclee print: This needs no explanation. Who doesn't need a deer wearing gym socks to hang in their living room? 




Brooklyn Circus candle: The BK Circus is my new favorite company. I love their neo-Victorian menswear and edgy chic style, and candles are always a can't go wrong gift choice! 




Sigerson Morrison suede booties:  One of my favorite brands.  If you know someone well enough to know their shoe size, aren't they worth spending $350 on?  




BR Unity Links necklace:  Jewelry is always an excellent choice, too!  I am loving the chain trend, and this pick is one of my favorites!  




Diptyque Duelle solid perfume:  If you follow the Deer at all, you know that I adore Diptyque!  Solid perfume is such a cool retro gift, and I adore the packaging!  




Mix CD:  I am all about giving mix CDs as gifts!  Everyone gets so tired of Christmas music, how about something more unique?  Some of my favorite albums this year have been Belle and Sebastian, The Black Keys and Grizzly Bear.  Download mp3s on Amazon or iTunes for a rockin', personalized gift!  Thank you so much Christina for having me! Here's wishing everyone a joyous and prosperous holiday season from Little Blue Deer!
