Valentine's Wish List
Hi Everyone,
It's official, there are only 6 more days till Valentine's Day. We've got our wishlists ready, do you? Here's a peek at some things the girls at Gum Tree are wishing for...
This is my wish list...Jonathan Adler Queen and King vase, a new long Chan Luu necklace and this beautiful Gem and Stone book to add to my book collection.
Here's what Kerith is wishing for this Valentine's Day...this great new cookbook just arrived, a new Beach House candle from Lafco, the scent is incredible, and some very pretty glass drop earrings from Ten Things Jewelry.
Courtney is wishing for the Loma Scarf in orange, this brand new hot pink leather zip pouch and this tiny little gold dipped love ring from Dogeared.
Megan would love another Chan Luu cashmere and silk scarf in violet, this beautiful long Chan Luu necklace and some pretty pink serving pieces from Sabre France.
And last but not least my 6 year old made a list of her own...
Of course we're obsessed with Unicorns, cupcakes and bracelets, so these all work!
Come on in and make your wishlist today. We have a great selection of beautiful Valentine's Cards, and sweet little gifts for everyone on your list.
Hope to see you all soon,
