THE THANK YOU VERY MUCH GIFT GUIDE!
A curated list of beautiful objects for beautiful people. Or slightly chaotic people. Or the maddeningly picky ones who insist they “don’t want anything” while absolutely wanting something very specific. This is gifting for the ones we adore in all their little complexities.
Take a deep breath. Let’s shop, babe.
