The recipient is reported to like writing and reading, and so we took that and ran with it. We created a Something geared towards inspiring many a letter.
The recipient received custom printed letterhead on Neenah stock, a grey Le Pen (goes perfectly!) and six envelopes in gold and grey. A small, hand-thrown bud vase finished in a metallic glaze sets off a small set of vintage photos and a large plate featuring scenes and language from France.
Who doesn’t love surprises right? Well, the recipient of this particular something does, so we were excited. In addition to liking surprises, the recipient is also reported to like Christmas, bowls, crafts, iPhones, ice cream, hot chocolate, tea and a bunch of other stuff. We zeroed in on the Crafts, Tea and Bowls portion of this.
What do you think?
Included in this something is:
+ Two matching tea cups
+ Walnut tea custom blended in Germany in a biodegradable and non-bleached tea bag
+ Vintage photos
+ A wreath-shaped baking mold you can also hang on the wall
+ a set of several feather trees (it’s an old craft popular during the holidays that originated out of Europe. The craft is gluing feathers to a cone….voila! Feather tree!)
Lookie here, folks. This one-of-a-kind box, emblazoned with a salmon, protects the recipient from evil.
Joe Wilson is a native american artist, and this is an authentic Joe Wilson box. The top panel slides on and off revealing a compartment. We stumbled upon this out at an estate sale and we just knew it was destined to become a Something. To accentuate the box, included are some of the best issues of the 2009 New Yorker, high lighters for marking favorite passages and a vintage western enameled bookmark. This particular bookmark is from the ’70s and is pretty heavy. It’s a neat little piece.
This Somethin’ Something included a delightfully crafted owl wall decoration circa 1972, a beautiful 1980s mini-clipboard with a few sheets of 25% cotton paper, a hamburger bowl, a tile artfully detailed with a tiger decal and some high-quality stickers for good measure. Huzzah.
This Somethin’ Something included two pilsner glasses, two wine glasses, two rocks glasses and an ashtray (or candle holder for non-smokers.) Fancy Send Me Something ribbons were included to lend some happy color! This will surely make the season bright.
