Christmas Gift Ideas #shoptalk

The clock is ticking and I wonder what kind of Christmas shopper you might be. Are you super organised with all your gifts purchased and labeled by July or are you like me...strolling into a panic about the second week of December, all the while wondering what you were doing for the past eleven months?
I was actually very proud of myself this past weekend, I managed to get a few gifts out early. Shopping for me is strictly online which is why I slide into December and hit the wall by week two, realising my Christmas shopping days are coming to an end. My saving grace is that I am 12 hours ahead of my family along the east coast of the USA. I managed to slide through Cyber Monday well into Tuesday. It was great!
This year I started my own little shopping list..of the things I wouldn't mind seeing tucked under the our Christmas tree one year. It has been a fun diversion (procrastination) and I thought I would share a few...I have a feeling some of you might enjoy them too.

I should mention that one item is listed twice..
Mr. H take note... :)


Apple iPad Air
It's thinner, lighter and faster, it's time!


L.L. Bean Men's Scotch Plaid Flannel Shirt with jeans, boots and a big cashmere scarf,
the kind that wraps around twice. So comfy!

Women's Signature L.L. Bean Boot in Houndstooth Wool
Just love..completely

Early American Windsor Arm Chairs
for Mr. and Mrs. H and I know exactly where
to put them.

Wedgewood Butterfly Bloom Tea Caddy
Blooming butterflies...say no more.

Hunter Foldable Boots
I love these...roll them up, pop them in your suitcase
and you will be ready for every type of raindrop imaginable.

Vitamix Professional Series 750 Blender
The Henriques family loves milkshakes...I think
this would suit all our needs.

Juliska "Country Estate" Winter Holiday Collection
Thinking for our first Christmas at Tahilla Farm..

Suede Boho Zip Pouch from Mark and Graham
Would love one and think it would make a great gift
for friends.

Apple iPad Air
Did I mention that it was thinner, lighter and faster?

Jawbone Mini Jambox
The 'go anywhere, anytime' mini speaker. I spotted
this in a scene in "The Good Wife". Perfect for travel
and covers nearly all age groups.

Fitbit Force
Fitness motivator to track your every move.
I am going with the idea that this will be a good thing. ;)

Staedtler Triplus Fineliner Pen
I seriously love these pens...and so do my daughters.
They mysteriously disappear...all the time!

Charles Fradin Home Notepad
I have a weakness for notepads...love this one,
even more if it had an illustration of Tahilla Farm on it one day.

Book Socks It's a book thing..and a sock thing.

Peterboro Bicycle Basket
Peterboro Baskets are the best and even better that
they are made in New Hampshire. I also have my
eye on a pie basket too.

J. Crew Pajama Set in Gingham Flannel
Flannel on my mind..
looking forward to wearing them again one day.


How is your holiday shopping coming along?
I love 'shop talk'!
