Instead of buying clothes and shoes, I really want to get these adorable home decor trinkets (a result of visiting other people’s new house and envying their home decor. Never a good thing).

So freaking adorable!
Get these uniquely cute things and you’ll make your friends jealous for sure. They can be great conversation pieces too.
mix-style (Star-Pink) Stereo Headphones Star - Pink $50. I’d wear these as ear muffs :p
Winter Sonata Snowman Salt & Pepper Case - Couple $35. Darnit, this would’ve been a great Vanlentine’s Day gift. They look so cute together!
Ranson Whimsical “Big-eyed Girl” Tote Bag $72. God, this bag is so funny! I think it should be called “Big-mouthed Girl” instead. I love it!
Kallis Finger “Cabbage Hair Doll” Hand Painting Wallet $80. Doesn’t it make you just want to go “Awwwww”? This is actually hand painted. All the bags and wallets from this Korean line are hand-painted, which are really impressive.
Glamorousky White Strap with High-heeled Shoe Charm by Pink Swarovski Crystals $28. OMG, I’d love this for my new BlackBerry Pearl. It is the most darling cell charm I’ve ever seen.
Holiday gift ideas part 2
Pretty jewelry boxes are great for girlfriends. I know I wouldn’t mind getting one myself. But rather than looking for a traditional chest-shaped jewelry box or a porcelain music-box one, go for something fun and unique.
Oval Swivel-Top Jewelry Box $59.95. I love this one’s modern look and its unique design.
Embossed Angel Jewelry Box, India $40.99. Not your typical jewelry box, a great piece of art to add to your bedroom decor.
Personalized Jewelry Roll $15.20, great for travel and even better for everyday use. Features a washable nylon fabric inside and out with two zipper compartments and a removable ring holder. This is a nifty idea. I never know how to pack my jewelry. They usually end up squashed or scattered all over in the suitcase.
Now if you have tons of precious jewelry and you are meticulous about keeping them in perfect condition, this one could be useful…if you care more about the function of course. It looks like an office binder to me.
PreZerve Fashion Forward Organizer, $19.93 (today only at The Shopping Channel). Apparently it can keep up to 300 pieces of jewellery inside! The special carbon based woven fabric actually helps keep your precious treasures from tarnishing — silver can stay beautiful for up to 50 years when properly stored in this PreZerve Organizer!
Holiday gift ideas
We’re going to a friend’s Christmas party next Saturday. There will be a gift exchange among all the people who are at the party. So we each need to bring a gift that is not gender specific. I’m trying to narrow down to a few choices. The first few that came to my mind was household stuff, like kitchenware. But kitchenware is tricky because you don’t know what they want or need, you sure don’t want to give something they already have or they think it’s useless. I’m thinking of home decor items, especially now most of our friends own their houses/condos, they could always use some pretty decorative things.
I found a couple of home decor pieces from our Canada’s own shopping channel.
loisonne Flower Votive Holders with Wooden Stand $28.88
Polish Stoneware Wall Key Holder $46.99
