Make Her Holiday Merry & Bright!

Make her holiday merry and bright with these top gift picks from 2life.

Gold Rim Glasses: These vintage-inspired coupe glasses add a sophisticated touch to any glass of bubbly. While the fancy glass might look like something that Jay Gatsby would keep on his bar cart, this version from Indigo is more of a steal than splurge: only $24 for a set of four. Now, that’s worthy of a toast!

Covet Garden Home: This special print edition of beloved digital design magazine Covet Garden is the long-lost soul mate of any decor-lover’s coffee table. Fans of the digital mag kept asking co-founders Rhonda Riche, Lynda Felton and Jessica Reid when they were going to make a print edition, so the women set up an Indiegogo campaign and their loyal readers helped them make Covet Garden Home a reality. The 100+ page book includes brand new home tours, entertaining ideas and DIY projects. This is a fool-proof gift for any woman in your life, and believe us when we say it’s a steal at $25.00 a copy.

Virginia Johnson Shawl: Gift-giving is all about finding those luxurious items that you know she’ll love, but might not necessarily buy for herself. Any item from textile designer and illustrator Virginia Johnson fit into this category, but we’re particularly smitten with this lightweight gauze shawl. Made of 100% merino wool from Kashmir, the versatile scarf will be one of those items she wants to wear every day, yet keep forever.

The Rule of Thirds: Technically, this novel by beauty expert and author Chantel Guertin is geared for young adults, but we know from experience that grown-up readers will also love the story of sixteen-year-old Pippa Greene, a passionate photographer and all-around awesome heroine. Dealing with themes of friendship, loss, creativity and, of course, romance, The Rule of Thirds is a must-read, whether the gals on your shopping list are 12 years old or 112!
