Cool Holiday Gift Ideas

I am always on the look out for different gift ideas. Here are a few ideas that I think are pretty neat:

A really cool gift idea is a Squeezebox (about $250) from www.slimdevices.com. The squeezebox alows you to stream digital music and internet radio stations to your stereo. The Squeezebox can be used to stream music from sources like Pandora.com.

Fran’s Chocolates makes the best chocolate dipped figs. They are incredible! The figs are filled with chocolate ganache then dipped in chocolate and are to die for. A box of six is $28. They make a yummy gift that any chocolate lover would appreciate. You can find them online at www.franschocolates.com

The new Apple iPod Shuffle is soooo cute… and so tiny. It is only about the size of a matchbox. It is amazing that something so small can store so many songs. It sells for $79 at the Apple store online at Apple.com. New, even smaller 1GB iPod shuffle. Just $79 with free engraving. Now Shipping

The Alessi - Alessandro M. cork screw from $37.50 at Alessi.com. Is very cute, it looks like a man in a suit. There are actually several products on the Alessi website that are creative and functional.

Lush Cosmetics makes the best bath bombs. I really like the Mr. Butterball bath bomb and it is only about $4.00 on Lush.com. They are perfect little gifts or stocking stuffers.

Windsor Vineyards has a very clever idea. You can get your own personalized message and label put on any of their bottles of wine. It costs a lot less than I thought it would to have private label put on a bottle of wine. Several of the wines are under $20 per bottle (The prices vary depending on the wine you choose). This will definitely make my holiday shopping much easier… the hardest part will be trying to decide what to put on the label.
