Color Story
This holiday season, don’t let all the fun go to those receiving gifts, find the joy in giving them! We did some shopping of our own this weekend but we switched up our strategy and had some fun of our own. We decided to shop by color. It's easy! We thought about our loved ones and chose gifts for them based on their favorite color, the color of their birthstone and even the color of their eyes and hair. We know, it sounds a little silly but we thought it could be a fun and creatively motivating way to do our holiday shopping this year and we’re here to share with you some of our favorite gifts based on color.
GREEN
For the color green we chose this Bliss Plush Throw Pillow by Nordstrom. It’s perfect to throw on while watching your favorite holiday movie or to layer over the couch for a cozy accent. We also purchased this pair of UGG Coquette Genuine Shearling Slippers in Burnt Olive. The perfect gift for the lounger of the family. Our final gift in green is this pair of BP Flannel Pajama Pants that have us reminiscing about our childhood on Christmas morning...this one we decided to keep for ourselves. Don’t tell!
BLUE
For the blue lovers in the family, we got you covered. We loved this Reed Diffuser from Capri Blue. The fragrance is so sweet and fresh and is sure to refresh any space in your home. We also love this Blue Cypress & Snow Classic Candle from Nest which is a guaranteed home run for the fragrance lover in the family. For the photographer or ocean lover, we love this intimate set of Deny Designs Ocean 5-Piece Gallery Wall Art Set which is sure to make any wall or room the most zen in the house.
PINK & PURPLE
Because if they love pink, then they probably like purple too. For the “always organized” member of the family this Project Planner from Poketo is the perfect addition to their wall calendar, phone calendar and desk calendar and while you’re at it, throw in this Crockd Set of 10 Acrylic Pens for good measure. We absolutely love gifting diffusers and our special favorite is this Vitruvi Porcelain Essential Oil Diffuser which comes in a soft, baby pink color option. Something more temporary but very unique are these Twist Candles from Lex Pott. These twisty but groovy candles come in both pink and purple and are the best accent for any coffee or side table.
NEUTRALS: WHITE, BEIGE & GRAY
These tend to be the more mature colors or the colors that a minimalist absolutely lives by. We’ve got you covered on these as well starting with this luxurious ivory Marshmallow 2.0 Medium Faux Fur Blanket from UnHide. We also picked up this MoMa Design Store Miffy Small Nightlight, one for each of our adorable nieces and nephews who still think there’s a monster under the bed. For the modernist of the bunch we had to get our hands on this MoMa Design Store Knot Throw Pillow as well as this Design Store Small Raawii Strom Vase which both make amazing accent decorations in the most minimal of homes. So, did you get any good ideas? We’re sad to say we haven’t even put a dent in our holiday shopping but this was a good start. Happy shopping!
