the ‘no gift’ gift

We are big fans of gifts that won’t burden the receiver when the sparkle of the holiday season fades come January!  While it’s so tempting to present a million little gifts (and holiday marketing makes this so easy to fall for!), the excitement is short-lived when the stress of the mess (and unwanted items) sets in.  This can be especially challenging for loved ones who are already feeling overwhelmed and burned by their current possessions and how to manage clutter.  

Give the gift of an experience or service - you’ll be hearing thank yous of appreciation far beyond the moment the gift is opened!  These options are opportunities to create memories or truly benefit your loved ones and make their lives easier and better!  Isn't that what gift giving should be about?!
