Continuing the theme of gifts for coffee lovers, this week I have three that I found through Buzz Feeds 39 Amazing Gifts For People Who Love Coffee

First is this fun pin found on Etsy at BruisedTounge shop.  It made me laugh.

Next, for those relaxing, drinking coffee with friends, moments.  A friend of mine and her family always work on a puzzle together during the holidays. Nice way to spend time together.

This can be found at Amazon.

Last is so true, especially on Monday.  This can be found on Etsy at BorealisAdventureCo

Good morning!

It is Thanksgiving week here in the US.  Many of us are traveling to be with family and friends or preparing to have them come to us.  It is busy and I will definitely be in need of caffeine.

I also thought about the upcoming holidays and gift giving.  I found this great coffee mug at ThinkGeek.com.   A fun gift for your coffee buddy and/or gamer.

Admit it, when it changes to blue, you want to smile. 🙂

Dragon Thursday

The holidays are approaching and thoughts of adding to the hoard,uh, I mean thoughts of finding  gifts for those of us who love dragons, is near.

I came across some lovely, whimsical gift ideas on Etsy from a shop by the name of DesignbyWendyBgd

One item in particular caught my eye.  It is an iridescent, rainbow-colored dragon egg.  It comes in a wooden box with a dragon story and an option to add a personalized certificate for the Dragon Keeper.

This would make a fun gift.

I also enjoyed this comment from the shop owner/designer:

CAUTION: If you put the egg into fire, you do that at your own risk! It will either burn or hatch a dragon.

I don’t think I would risk it. 😉

Ideas come from unexpected places.

Yesterday on Facebook, a friend shared a photo of a woman made of twigs.  She was fantastic.  All I could manage to find out was that it was from a Dutch art fair.

This led me to look for twig dragons which led me to Wicker Dragons  I found this one on Pinterest but the link led me to a dead end.  I found a similar dragon at a site called Bere Island.net and their basketry section.

It is under their Willow and Wool tab.
