I didn’t put these in my gift guide, but I’ve developed quite an obsession for these mercury glass initialed votives, lined with gold, this season. They make such a very appreciated, personalized gift. I didn’t include them because Pottery Barn, in general, is out of vowels, so it’s hard to spell out any words. But if you just need a consonant, you may get lucky. 

Filled with a nosegay of flowers and a message of gratitude, they make a perfect gift that should give your hosts a glow for years to come. 

I’m excited to announce the winner of our Proscecco Home Ambiance Perfume from Antica Farmacista. The winner is Sandy from a great travel blog called You May be Wandering, in her current post she reveals my forever~favorite windows in New York, those at Bergdorf Goodman. 

Sandy, please send me your address and so I can get this effervescent scent to you before the new year.

Thank you to all who entered the drawing, I always wish everyone could win. Also, thank you to Antica Farmacista for offering this wonderful fragrance for our giveaway.
