For the True Aussie
What’s more Australian than a Vegemite or koala tea towel! These luxury microfibre tea towels from Ke Design are perfect for drying and cleaning crockery, glassware, and cutlery. They also absorb seven times their weight in moisture. Presented in a beautiful matching box they are a perfect gift idea this Christmas.
For the Book Worm
Written by well-known Australian author Patrick Lindsay, these books are the perfect, meaningful (and thoughtful) gift for Christmas. Plus, at just $19.95, they’re the perfect stocking filler!
There are three books in the series, including:
Finding Beauty: In a world of fake news and depressing media stories, Finding Beauty gives us 170 ways to see beauty in our daily lives and prompts us to draw from it to look on the bright side by trusting in our humanity, sparking our imaginations and inspiring ourselves and those around us.
Make the Most of You: Often change doesn’t come from the big things in our lives, rather, it’s the small changes that can really transform our lives. Make the Most of You contains insights that can have surprising ripple effects in our lives.
High Hopes: Most of us race through life, unable to enjoy the present because we're weighed down by the past or worried about the future. High Hopes offers insights that will allow you to slow the daily rush and enjoy your life, moment by moment.
I hope this gift guide gave you some much-needed inspiration this festive season. Try not to get too hung up on the gifts you give, and simply think about what might bring your recipient true joy. Christmas is a time for giving and loving, so whatever presents you choose, don’t forget to enjoy the time with your loved ones, and make the most of being together.
Wishing you all a fantastic Christmas and a sparkling new year. Thank you so much for being here with me at Made For Madison for another year. I hope 2019 is all you hope it to be.
Awesome
