Adventures in Curtsyland!: Let the Craziness Begin!!

It's official....the holiday season is upon us. November started out very quietly in the Curtsy corner of the world, but the shopping madness has now begun. Smart shoppers who are looking for something unique and personal will head to Curtsyland this weekend for the Emilie Sloan Trunk Show. This Seattle based designer produces a truly unique line of totes that look absolutely spectacular when monogrammed. We've got all of the different styles and all of the colors in the store this weekend available for special order either monogrammed or plain.

The new Peace Bomb Vase makes a wonderful gift for just about anyone on your list, guy or gal. We loved the quote from the vase's creators: "War is destructive and cruel; it will mercilessly take away life and happiness. We don't hear the deafening explosion when this "Peaceful Bomb" falls on the ground, nor the devastation after the explosion. We see flowers and plants which are full of life. They sway in the wind of freedom and emit unlimited vitality. We hope we pass this anti-war and peacekeeping message to you through "A Peaceful Bomb" vase in order to fill the world with peace. As our part to World Peace, partial proceeds are donated to "Act Now to Stop War & End Racism" (A.N.S.W.E.R.)."

This is the time of year for parties. I don't know about you, but my Mother & Grandmother always taught me to never, ever show up empty handed. The High Heel Cake Server is the perfect Hostess Gift. The heel is attached by a super strong magnet and comes off making it easy as pie to serve pie (or cake).

Guys....they are always, without exception, the hardest people on everyone's list to buy for. The Hemergency Survival Kit has 20 must haves for the guy on the go. Packed in a super compact bag the kit contains : hair comb, dental floss, breath freshener, lip balm, deodorant wipes, nail clipper, mending kit, safety pin, extra buttons, lint remover, static remover, shoe shine wipes, stain remover, wrinkle remover, pain reliever, adhesive bandages, facial tissues, razor, shaving cream & a styptic pencil.
