Winter Warm Up Gift Ideas

I love celebrating my birthday in the spring... everything is about to bloom and it's warm enough to put a log in the outdoor fire pit and have a little get together outside!

Thinking about it is enough to make me feel sad for all the people celebrating their birthday in the winter! Great gift ideas for winter birthdays are comfort items... throws, candles, teas and hot chocolate... and those warm cozy socks. Makes me want to curl up on the couch during those long nights with a good book or movie.

A fun themed gift could be a car kit. Complete with an ice scraper, a pair of warm gloves and a snack to eat while waiting for the car to warm up!

Kids might enjoy one of those rolled up crazy carpets. With a cellophane wrap you can hide a few treats and indoor games inside the roll and tie the ends with curly ribbon and make a big tooties roll out of it.

Thoughtful gifts are always original because the receiver can feel the time spent in picking out the perfect thing!

Twilight Falls on Nashville TN

This will be exciting for anyone caught up on the Twilight series... book or film!

The Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center will be hosting a 3 day event this January 29-31 that will include panels, parties and autograph signings.

Parking can run you $16 a day so you may want to head out with a car load of fans or check into the shuttles that run from downtown.

Of course the whole idea has me thinking up vampire gift basket ideas complete with the books series or the first movie... decorated with a few pieces of garlic and maybe a cross. How perfect would a chocolate cross wrapped in silver foil be???
