2017 Gift Guide
#holidaygiftguide #mtholiday
Can you believe the holidays are right around the corner? It’s 2017 Holiday Gift Guide time already! Thanksgiving is creeping up quickly and before we know it snow will be falling and presents will be everywhere!
I put a lot of time and love into my blog posts and Facebook page (where I post something fun daily). So many places and products have crossed my path that I absolutely LOVE. Thought it would be fun to share them with you and help in the eternal search for holiday gifts.
I also think the best gifts are experiences so you’ll see that’s the biggest section below. How much would YOU love if someone got you a gift certificate to one of the local attractions you’ve been dying to try? To me that’s the best gift – it keeps on giving all year long and you don’t have to find a place to put it in your closet.
Enjoy!
