A big Thank you to Lisa for being a part of our Wish list guest series! Lisa was one of the first people to welcome me and My Sparrow to the world of the blog!
It's the most wonderful time of the year
It's the most wonderful time of the year
to be a blogger and I want thank one of my
SoCal friends, Christina Fluegge, for inviting me
to be her guest at greige!
I just love Christina's stylish responsibility,
which makes greige design and My Sparrow two
of my favorite places to land.
Christina inquired about my holiday wish list
and asked if I would share it with all of you.
Absolutely, here is a list of just a few of
my favorite things to give & to receive.
Thanks again Christina, this was fun!

As I mentioned last week, iomoi makes sending
your latest & greatest emails newsworthy events
when you use your own custom designed
e-stationary!
Click on the monkeys & they will show you
the way to design a free sample for yourself!
And to keep the art of handwritten notes
alive and well, just look, iomoi offers the best
selection of stocking stuffers around!
Back to emails for just a second...
How much fun would it be to send
snazzy e-stationary on a
Way fun!
This gal looks like a happy blogger!
To learn more about the amazing things
that you can do on one of these,
Apple !
How sweet it is ...
that these two are still
making beautiful music together!
Carole King & James Taylor
are still singing the songs we loved back then
& these days they sound better than ever!
Do you love the scent of a fresh cut privet...
A privet candle from
fills the air with that crisp green earthy scent
I crave on the coldest days of winter.
Speaking of earthy, the day I discovered
My Sparrow, was the day
I fell in love with Henry!
The Henry Woven Bench from My Sparrow is all about comfort and bringing things into your life & home that make you smile.
Smile & look fresh as a flower in a suit or t-shirt & jeans sporting a hand-stitched bloom on your lapel from
Each bloom Emerson makes is one of a kind, varied, and has it's own unique character and soul.
Kind of a flower soul mate!
Speaking of flowers...
Indulge yourself with the scent of clementine leaves sparkling in the morning dew
above a heart of orange blossom
and water lily with the
I don't know about you, but during the holidays I actually look forward to spending time in the kitchen.
It's where everyone loves to gather & I love reading old family recipes even though I know them by heart. So why not wear something pretty while I whip up something gourmet!
a gourmet line of heirloom aprons
that will keep this hostess looking
crisp and pulled together.
All of Ashley's ideas make for a meaningful
gift giving experience!
Now, let me ask you, do you know how much
I love bicycles?
I've had my favorite beach cruiser from our California days forever. I'm not selling it...way to sentimental.
However, I'm thinking that my cruising days are behind me and that I would do swell on this Classic Ladies 3-speed from Schwinn . It's a beauty!

And last but certainly not least...
Planting a tree
is a beautiful way to honor someone!
is a delightful farm that specializes in growing trees that can be given as a gift and planted to honor a special friend or family member.
A tree or seedling suited for a special teacher comes beautifully wrapped and is the perfect way to say thank you for helping our children to grow & learn.
A living tree symbolizes strength and endurance
as these kinds of gift have the potential
to last centuries.
So... there you have it my friends,
the makings for an enjoyable holiday season.
Start your day on a bike ride with your kids.
Around the block or through the park,
just get outside and play!
Send a festive invitation to friends on your ipad
using your e-stationary. Fill your home with music
from James Taylor & Carole King
and fill the air with the scent
of a fresh-cut privet. As you prepare
to greet your guests, put a dab of orange blossom
behind each ear
and a beautiful flower on your lapel.
Tie on an heirloom apron
& Serve a gourmet dinner in the kitchen
that everyone will remember.
Then sit back
and relax with Henry & friends. You deserve it!
Sounds to me like a
lovely way to celebrate
the the holidays.
XO Lisa
