Lust List for Holiday Gift Giving

holiday-gift-guide-header Tis the season for gifting! While this time of the year is about gratitude and giving, we tend to get a little overwhelmed and angsty with what to buy the ones we love. Gift giving is a form of love which is why we put a lot of pressure on ourselves to find the perfect gift. The fact is, that the best gifts come in small packages and don’t have to cost a lot. Instead of battling the crowds and standing in long lines, we’re opting to settle our nerves by spending more time outside and less time inside (shopping). The key to calming your nerves is preparation. All yearlong we note the items we lust after – not just for ourselves, but for our family and friends. Each time we see something we love or know they will love, we put it in our memory bank – or more conveniently a private Pinterest board - so when it comes time for shopping shenanigans, we already have a list ready. Being amongst hustling and bustling shoppers can put us in the holiday spirit, but we’d rather spend more time doing the things we love with the ones we love.
