Speaking of the holiday season...what are you doing for holiday gifts this year? I think we are going to focus on fun stocking stuffers and saving up for a great trip for next year. I do love presents that fit in stockings and sometimes smaller ones are just as fun! And, diamonds fit in stockings. Probably not this year but I'm just saying, lots of treasures can fit in stockings so you just never know! :)
Another fun gift idea (that likely won't fit in a stocking...) is buying art for your home. The Corcoran College of Art + Design in Washington, DC has an "Off the Walls" sale each year that features fine art, jewelry and ceramics handcrafted by Corcoran students, alumni, faculty, and staff.
It's a great way to get your holiday shopping done and benefit local artists. And you don't have to go the mall and you get away from your computer and enjoy DC decorated for the holidays!
And, it's happening this week!
