More Virtual Gift Shopping: a house log

We are back with part two of our virtual gift shopping roundup (see part one here) and this time we headed into Pottery Barn to see what we could find. Here is what we enjoyed.

This charming $12.50 rubber stamp kit is so cute for anyone from a well traveled kid to a crafty adult (who might use them to whip up some custom stationery).

In the cannot-get-much-cheaper-than-this category, these $3 vases would be ideal for this Hands-on reed diffuser project that we tackled last year.

These $11 “His” and “Hers” knobs would be cute for any married couple who share a bathroom (which is fairly much all of our friends and relatives since we are not of fancy sufficient blood to know people to have two separate master baths).

The hubs loves maps, so the globe ornament certainly caught my eye as a sweet gift for anyone with geographic interests.

And for anyone who wants to feel swanky, this $29 marble cheeseboard simply screams decadence (I in fact expected the tag to read $69 or something, so the chunky marble slab and cheese knife for under 30 seems truly reasonable to me). Perhaps someone you know simply lately redid their kitchen and would appreciate something chic like this to finish things off?

I did not realize I had a weakness for large hardcover books like these until we were packing/unpacking (they are NOT a plus when you are packing/unpacking by the way). But they are vivid sufficient on a coffee table the rest of the time to make them worth the trouble. And since many of these were 60% off (some were marked from $50 down to $18!) they truly would make a pleasant high-roller gift that does not in fact break the bank. And yes, I would totally peel off the markdown sticker so the giftee was left wondering if we truly paid $50 for a book (but if they know us at all, they’ll know that we did not… haha).

So that ends the PB roundup. We will be back in a bit with our Urban Outfitters run to finish off the three part virtual shopping spree (we took too many pics to put them in one post). In the meantime, we will simply be- you guessed it- unpacking. Lively, lively, lively.

Psst- We were not paid or perk’d to mention these items or stores, we simply like them and thought you might too.
