lucky bean in bamboo pot

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

The new lucky bean finally makes it to retail. It is an uncommon plant that took forever to track down, and I'm happy to see it looking so nice at RedEnvelope. The bamboo pot is a bit a disconnect, but it's nice and masculine, which makes this a great gift for him, as well as for her. I would give this for Father's Day, housewarming, thank you or just because. Very difficult to find elsewhere, so I wouldn't bother for now.

jade coin bracelet

First to recommend

Description

Great modern interpretation by jewelry designer Rhonda Reagan of the Chinese jade coin. I have some of these jade pieces around, but I never knew what to do with them. I don't think I am capable of creating a piece quite like this, so maybe I'll just have to toss the old and buy the new. Reagan's pieces are great - feminine, modern, elegant, and best of all, extremely affordable. Surprisingly so.

cherry blossoms candle

First to recommend

3 people recommended this item

Description

It's a little on the chunky side, but it's still pretty. The cherry blossoms are raised above the wax shell, so it stays in place even after the candle burns down. You can reuse it as a hurricane.

Clever. I never put my jewelry inside my jewelry box. So much easier to hang it.

Description

At first glance, you think it's a cool camo messenger bag, huh? I love this bag... For myself even. I think it's very clever they designed bags that are masculine for dads... Only fair he carries the diapers too. With these, there ain't no shame to it either.

initials cufflinks

First to recommend

Description

I have a pair of these cufflinks, and I had forgotten how special they look until every other person I talked to that day complimented me on "great cufflinks!" The letters are nice and clean. They're polished sterling silver (solid silver). They're on sale right now for $60. That's a steal!

By the way, these look great on men too.

modern catch-all

First to recommend

Description

I've been meaning to buy one for myself. I have the matching accessories box, which I use for desk supplies. I could use a catch all for when I am too lazy to lift the lid to my accessories box.

If I could, I would have these little trays all over the house... Bathroom, kitchen, entryway, office.

I love these large citronella candles in tile patterns. What a great gift for someone who enjoys entertaining outdoors. Or is very particular about the look of their yard.
