an additional post of unique gift ideas
This time from Generate.

This little toy car has interchangeable pieces that fit on other vehicles from the series. I like little toy cars, and I think it's a neat idea for a gift - or two.

Here's a playhouse anyone could love...it comes blank - but I think I'd be tempted to copy the illustrations on the website because I'm not very creative.

I like that it has cobwebs. I have cobwebs too.
Everyone is flattered by this mirror -

This is what's printed on it:

and I would love to give it to every teenage girl who's feeling awkward and ugly and every old lady I know, just to remind them how beautiful they are.
Too mundane for your gift giving needs?
How about this -

It's called Little Joseph. Little Joseph the creepy doll head candle holder. We aren't limited to white dripping wax here either. Imagine the possibilities.

I feel witty, oh so witty...

IMO, this gift is best given with a good knife. For a variety of reasons.
Too silly?
Yesterday I read a post about someone looking for a gift for their dad. I know my dad would have loved this - and it wouldn't be bad for K either. He has a stack of these supplies in a shoe box.
Don't all dad's shine their shoes?

Mine did.
I can remember watching my mom get dressed up. Watching her choose jewelry, fix her hair and put on lipstick. And I'll never forget watching my dad, using skills he learned in the army, shine his shoes before an evening out. I can smell the polish and hear the sound of the brush on the leather.
Make memories - give your dad a shoe shine kit.

Yes, mine does.
I loved these ideas. Especially the creepy doll head candle holder :) Where do you find this stuff?!
Those are some sweet memories you have of your parents.
Oh, and he gave both my brothers their own machine on the bar mitzvah because they were men and men polish their shoes. OCD+
For my little Joseph.
My Dad shined his shoes. My eldest knows how to shine shoes, I think my youngest just doesn't care.
Isn't it cool to have such wonderful memories about your dad...and I know exactly what you mean about being able to hear the sound of the brush on the shoes.
That doll head is awesome. The cutting board even more so.
Have you seen the Pi pie plate in the Signals catalog? I want one....
my dad had the shoe shine thing too, i remember watching him and loving the whole smoothness of the motion...
