Christmas List

Every year when Christmas rolls around and our families start asking us what we'd like, we tell them "cash for stuff for the house". This year some cash would be great for some not-so-fun things like new door knobs and hardware, BUT instead I decided what the heck, I'll add some things I'd love but never buy for myself.

So in case you are curious, here are the "fun" things I've added to my Christmas List*!


Frye Melissa Button Boots



Celerie Kemble Black & White


Gold Link Necklace


West Elm Tree Snow Globe
(I saw this tree snow globe in the store and fell in love. It's SO beautiful! And I have a soft spot for trees because they were all around us when we got married.)

* My family uses elfster.com - it makes things so much easier and everyone except the gift receiver can see when something is purchased.

  4. I bought those exact Frye boots last year on a whim and LOVE them!   Color is perfect, fit is great, and the button tabs add the right touch. Even if they don't end up under the christmas tree you should still go out any buy them ;) Bit pricey but Frye boots will last you a lifetime!

    PS Love the simplicity of those snowglobes, I would actually use those! Great find

  5. We picked up the nutcracker snow globe for our Christmas stash. The best part is that their viscosity is great so the snow gently falls! Love those boots.

  10. Bryn, I feel like we're kindred spirits sometimes. I bought one of those IKEA faux fur rugs to layer on top of the rug in my dressing room, and my dog has claimed it. He's a 70 lb lab, and he curls up in a little ball to fit on it!
    My family is using Elfster this year for our gift exchange! I love that you can put direct links to things -- even from Etsy -- on your wishlist.
    I am the one who originally tried to get that campaign dresser, but it didn't work out. I was bummed, because I wanted to meet you, because I feel like we're already friends (even though you don't know me). But I probably would have been awk..... haha!

  11. Bryn, get the Frye boots!  They are so well made and comfortable.  I just bought the Melissa boots, but the ones with the zipper up the back from Nordstrom.com, they are on sale for 33% off right now : )  I know they are a splurge, but well worth it, you will have them for many years.
