It’s the most wonderful time of the year, your first Christmas together as husband and wife! Look no further, we’re giving you some quick and easy ideas for last minute gift ideas if you’re spending the holidays with your new family- the “in laws”. For the mother in law, we’ve given some gifting suggestions along with a couple of hostess gift ideas.
I’m a big fan of this cotton cashmere herringbone blanket (I have one of my own I received as a gift) from Elizabeth Joyce Monograms. There are so many custom monogram designs to chose from, so you can make this such a personal piece that will add to her home.
Another option I’m gifting this year is the Southerner’s Cookbook from the editors of Garden and Gun magazine. A hugely popular magazine based here in Charleston. This book is full of classic dishes and not overly fussy recipes. This is a must have for any hostess and cookbook collector.
For the sister or brother in law- create a custom scent from Candlefish, gift the softest and stylish pj’s from Lake, local cocktail crafters, Bittermilk have a variety of hand crafted mixers, and the Mophie keychain juice pack reserve offer everything for the dweller, to drinker, to techie.
I always find men much harder to shop for, but these items are bound to please the dads that already have it all. The Concave cutting board keep meat resting in it’s own juices to retain maximum flavor, a MUST have for the grill master.
Follow Bill Murray’s Oscar worthy lead and gift a Brackish Bow Tie… definitely not the traditional dodgey ties that dad’s don’t want under the tree!
