If you are looking for a great place to shop for cool gifts, I have just the place for you--Red Envelope! I was recently introduced and had the opportunity to check out some of their very cool items available. As I love scouring through home decor sites, this one was really fun for me to peruse!
I love taking pictures of my kids, as do most moms, I would imagine. But, displaying those pictures tends to be a challenge for me. It's hard to find just the right frames to go together just the way I want. Red Envelope had something perfect for me, the Hall Gallery Frame Set. This is a fantastic grouping of frames displayed from a hanging bar. The arrangement is very simple, but exactly what I was looking for. It lets me group together a bunch of pictures of my boys and it looks really great. It is pretty easy to assemble and is perfect for hanging in my hallway. I really love the quality!
This nasty winter we are experiencing has me yearning for warmer weather. A sure sign of Spring is blooming flowers, which is why I am really happy with the other great item I received, the Year of Seeds. The Year of Seeds include twelve brightly colored and very cheerful ceramic containers to use as pots to plant the twelve different seed packs, one for every month of the year. Everything you need is included to grow petunias, marigolds, pansies, lobelia, alyssum, zinnias, impatiens, baby's breath, dianthus, cosmos, poppies and sweet peas.
Seeing these growing blossoms on my window sill has been a great reminder that winter will not last forever and also a really fun project with my little boy. It has been fun to teach him how plants grow in a hands on way.
Both of these items would make fantastic gifts for friends and family for Valentine's Day or any occasion. Red Envelope has a wide array of items, so there really is something for everyone.
