Still scrambling for a last minute gift? Instead of a last minute dash to the mall, get comfy right there in front of your computer. Here is a gift idea that can be ordered online, delivered in time, and it is something that your recipient surely does not own. I was searching for something cool for my brother-in-law and came across these prints:
Each print is a hand-drawn (ink) grid map of some very famous cities. Lucky for us the artist runs her studio from out of Charlotte so she has created one of these prints for the QC! I chose the Manhattan one for this gift because my brother-in-law is living in NYC but he is well-traveled so I may add other cities to his collection down the road. Since we already celebrated Christmas early with my husband's side I can go ahead and tell you that the gift was a hit and I am already thinking of other people that would love one. It was just so nice to give something that was more personal. There are plenty of cities to choose from so you are sure to find a city that has some meaning to someone on your list.
Karen M. O'Leary is the artist and she has numerous prints ready to be shipped today. They come nicely wrapped so all you need to do is stick it in a gift bag and you're done. The prices are very reasonable and there are a variety of sizes. Check out
Karen's store to see your options and let her know Momsie sent you!
DEC 20th is the Christmas order cut-off so make your purchase NOW!
Side note...
Amazon still has some great magazines for under $20. Several for under $5! These make great stocking stuffers and all it takes is a couple of clicks a gift is on its way to your special someone. Right now you can find these for the men in your life (while you're ordering pick up US for yourself. Its only $15 and we all need that mindless reading at the end of the day!):
Inc. (good for guys interested in business and money but not your typical stuffy biz magazine) =$5
Fast Company (same idea as above) = $5
National geographic Travel = $10
GQ = $12
Rolling Stone = $20
love this idea! I had seen one of these prints before and totally had forgotten about this great idea!
ReplyDeleteKyle loved his and I really want a couple for myself now!
