I have been a busy elf myself trying to get orders packaged &amp; out the door and haven&#8217;t had time to get out into the holiday mall madness to do my shopping.  Nonetheless, here &amp; there I&#8217;ve been taking breaks to get some online cruising for stuff done.  I think some of it is totally share worthy!<\/p>\n<p>For the writer\/artist\/creative soul in your life:  I discovered Moleskine notebooks a few years back and really love putting my thoughts down on paper, ideas for the business, the occasional thought that actually pops through the photographic haze.  I found <a href=\"http:\/\/www.swissknifeshop.com\/Moleskine_s\/81.htm\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">this site<\/a> today searching for the Volume II of my business ideas notebook.   Hemingway can&#8217;t be wrong&#8230;right?  Love these notebooks and the inspiration I feel just holding onto them.  Nothing better than the smell of new ideas in a blank notebook page.<\/p>\n<p>For the new mom: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.julianandco.com\/products.php?cat_id=2\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">LittleJules<\/a> makes the most beautiful handcrafted jewelry.  I love the &#8220;for mom&#8221; bracelet for $99.  Lovely, novel and sweet yet fashionable enough for the more discerning new mom!<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.julianandco.com\/images\/products\/1bracelet1.jpg\" align=\"middle\" height=\"199\" width=\"200\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Even nicer for the new mom that likes to be spoiled a bit&#8230;the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thefineartoffamily.com\/jewelry\/necklaces\/silver-rectangle-gate-locket.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Silver Rectangle Gate Locket<\/a> by The Fine Art of Family is very beautiful and very unique in the old style world of lockets.  Very posh!  I also love that there is a 3 image variation.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">For the arty mom&#8230;or the mom who loves her children&#8217;s fine art!   <a href=\"http:\/\/www.magicdogstudio.com\/Home_Page.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Magic Dog Studio<\/a> has the most amazing creations, well your children have the most amazing creations however Magic Dog Studio will take your kids artwork OFF THE FRIDGE and onto you!
