Agraria Candles

Home fragrance is just as important as the perfume or cologne you wear. Your home should have a scent that allows you to relax, feel comfortable and it should look beautiful too. You may have seen Agraria products at Bergdorf’s or Saks and for good reason. This Petite Crystal Cane candle is the perfect holiday gift for anyone.
I recently tried the Lime & Orange Blossoms Crystal Cane Candle. It has an exhilarating fragrance filled with Lime & Orange Blossoms, and surrounded by the beauty of Night-Blooming Sampaguita, Honeysuckle, and Jasmine. Amber Woods, Smoky Patchouli and Oak Moss add depth to a velvety smooth background.
The crystal cane candle is beautifully presented with a silver plated lid with the Agraria crest. After they burn completely, you can reuse them for simple tea lights. They will sparkle down the middle of your table or lining the walkway to your front door. These beautifully luminous, fragrant, and clean-burning candles are a special blend of vegetable-based premium soft waxes.
Features Lead-free wick and includes silver plate lid stamped with Agraria crest
Approximate burning time: 25 hoursFor only $35, you can get this elegant addition to your home!

Stainless Steel Watches for Him @ShopNBC
It’s that time of the year again! Why not get your holiday shopping done this Black Friday? A perfect gift for the special guy in your life is a watch. Men love watches almost as much as women love shoes and giving a gift that complements their style can mean the world to them.
A watch is a great gift to give your co-worker, friend, brother in law or cousin. It is something that they will always use and think of you when they wear it. These watches are around $500 or more and I picked 4 of my friends from Facebook and matched them with 4 watches that I liked on shopnbc.com.
What do you think?

@Glitterlimes from @NYIGF 2012
Glitter Limes was one of the vendors in the Handmade section of this year’s New York International Gift Fair. The cutest part about these accessories is that they are handmade by designer Debbie Tuch in Brooklyn. She has been crafting these pieces since 1996!
I love these, they are so cute and a perfect conversational piece with any outfit!

Rock Candy Earring in Topaz for $45 is definitely perfect for the sea foam color trend!Know a veggie and fruit lover? How about these necklaces fore them! Delicious 🙂

Wool Buddy from @NYIGF 2012
One of the cutest handmade vendors at the New York International Gift Show this year is San Francisco based company Wool Buddy. Similar to boiled wool, they have no stuffing and are solid toys. A great alternative for babies and pets alike.
They are awkward and adorable 🙂


So cute and you can make your own! They have step by step felting kits available per character.

My Kind of Shop: Up To You Toronto
UP TO YOU, a concept shop in Toronto, is now open! The idea behind this shop was to create a voyeuristic experience for the customer, therefore changing their patterns of choice.
Dimitra Doufekas is the co-owner and the buyer who carefully choose designers from around the world, talk to them about their ideas and purchase pieces that promote individuality amidst a world of cookie-cutter imagery and products. Consequently, the majority of what UP TO YOU sell can only be found in this little shop in Canada.

“These days there is a need to offer people a genuine alternative to the normal same/same consumer environment. I suppose if we don’t start to truly encourage & embrace individuality now, we’ll all be driving around in identically matching cars within 20 years! A bit extreme maybe, but we might forget how good a classic Steve McQueen movie is.”

If you are in the neighbourhood, make sure you stop by and check out all the kitschy items they have! I love it.
