Holiday Gift Guide 2015

Here are some fun gift ideas for the holiday season.  I tried to include a mix of item based on a few criteria: Some items I chose because they are unique and different (like a cardboard antler head or a gadget that makes guitar picks out of old credit cards).  I tried to include some handmade and fair-trade items (like handmade ceramics and fair-trade chocolate) and some eco-friendly items (like re-usable shopping bags and artsy dish towels).  I also included some things that I use every day (especially tech items) and a variety of children’s items that are either educational or that promote active or pretend play, as well as some fun activities for the whole family.
