Our Favorite Gifts to Give and Receive | What to Look for and How to Find It

from Dear Alice | Interior Design · host Alice Lane

We’re here today to talk about gifts. It’s the season and everyone has started to make their lists and we think it’s a fun dreamscape in our minds to think about what gifts to give, especially when it’s something they wouldn’t have thought to give themselves, which makes it a great gift to offer. People often delight a lot in the wrapping of the gift as much as they do in the gift itself, so you know for them you’ll do a fabulous wrap job. Other people, particularly men, love a bag to simplify things and where they don’t have to deal with all the wrappers. So even knowing how people will react to the wrapping is a big part of the gift as well. We give other useful tips like don’t give holiday themed gifts, such as a Christmas spatula, which you open on Christmas day and can’t even use until the next holiday season.
