Red, white & blue flowers and gifts

Posted on , by Jackie in Decor, For the Home, Luxury Gifts. Comments Off

Flowers – a beautiful gift

I remember that at one time flowers were seen as a rather boring gift. Welcome certainly, but not terribly exciting. Those days are gone. Florists today have a stunning range of floral gifts that suit just about any occasion.  The wonderful thing about online florists today is that they sell so much more too.

Amazing planet-friendly jewelry with an historic twist

Laura Bergman is a jewelry artist with a conscience. In the area in which she lives, there are bottle dumps with discarded bottles dating back to the 18th century. Collectors are free to take these. But broken glassware and china fragments are left behind, causing a hazard to local wildlife. Laura recycles these into her fantastic designs. You can see on this page just how stylish they are.



Motorcycle gear for girls

Gifts and gear for the lady biker

Ladies – do you know where to buy a pink leather biker jacket? How about a pink crash helmet? Just because you have a motorcycle (or are a regular pillion rider) it doesn’t that you can’t be stylish and … well … feminine. There’s no need to hide your figure in those bulky biking clothes that are mostly,let’s face it, made for the guys.

The NEAT glass for spirit drinkers

Posted on , by Jackie in For the Home, Gourmet, Luxury Gifts. Comments Off

Scientifically designed glass improves all spirits aroma

Scientists have designed a glass specifically for drinking spirits neat. The glass is designed around Naturally Engineered Aroma Technology, or NEAT. The NEAT glass lets the alcohol scent remain in the glass, while releasing the fine aromas of a good spirit. The strong alcohol scent we get when drinking spirits numbs the olfactory senses. By leaving the alcohol scent behind, you are enhancing your experience.



Ride-on toys for toddlers

Posted on , by Jackie in Kids, Luxury Gifts. Comments Off

Cute, stylish and fun toys

Although these ride-on toys are recommended for youngsters from eighteen months and up, I have found that younger babies love them too and use them as walking aids when they begin to take their first tentative steps. But these are so much more. Don’t you think that they are wonderful items to have around the home? (Especially the ladybug and the cow for me!)



Wake up to a gentle sunrise every morning

Posted on , by Jackie in Decor, For the Home, Luxury Gifts. Comments Off

A gentle and natural way to start the day

Until I discovered this wonderful ‘alarm clock’ it had never occurred to me that most of us start our day harshly and unnaturally thanks to the shrill sound of a raucous alarm going off. Even if we use a radio, the volume has to be loud enough to wake us up. I just accepted this until I came across this fantastic product. With it, you can wake up to a sunrise; as gently and naturally as we should. What a brilliant idea this is.



Are you seeking the closest shave imaginable?

Posted on , by Jackie in Accessories, Beauty, Luxury Gifts. Comments Off

Straight Razors are the answer

Every man should enjoy a barber giving him a shave with a straight razor. Nothing comes close to the feeling of a professional’s ministrations with a straight razor. When you can’t make it to the barber and shave parlor, the next best thing is a shave at home, like your grandfather’s grandfather use to do it.

The perfect gift for the whiskey lover

Posted on , by Jackie in Decor, For the Home, Gourmet, Luxury Gifts. Comments Off

Great gift ideas for whiskey lovers

Every whiskey aficionado knows that whiskey should be enjoyed at 15 Centigrade to really open up the bouquet without sacrificing texture.  Ice will over-chill your drink, and leaves a relatively small window of opportunity to enjoy your spirit at just the right time and temperature without breaking up your whiskey.
