Happy Holidays from snowy Seattle! Last night brought some of the first snow to our beautiful City and as I sit writing this, most of the snow still hasn't melted! I've spent the day drinking mugs of hot chocolate and staring out the window at the oh-so-lovely winter white blanketing my neighborhood and City (yes staring out the window, because it is way to cold to head outside). It's definitely gotten me in the holiday spirit, making today the perfect day to share this year's holiday gift guide with you! 

Filled with gifts to surprise and delight, this year's holiday gift guide has something for everyone on your list! I've even included a few things you might want to consider as #treatyoself gifts, because we all deserve a little self care during the holidays. Speaking of #treatyoself, be sure to check back next week for a very special giveaway, worth over $500, that includes many of the items found in our holiday gift guide! Because 'tis the season!
