The One and Only...gift of good taste!

There is just one Jesus whose birthday we're preparing to celebrate! He's the One and Only...and with this thought in mind, why not give a gift that is also one of a kind. There are some wonderful businesses here in the Sandhills that have unique, one of a kind gifts that also show good taste!

Price's Gallery and Framing has original art work as well as prints with with a Western theme.

The unique wooden animal art is made with woods that haven't been stained and are in their natural state. What intricate workmanship!

The title of this print is "Wishes do Come True." Merry Christmas!

There are lots of choices to be found at Prices Gallery and Framing including wildlife fine art!

Across the street, stop at Janine's Emporium for a cup of coffee (talk about good taste) and browse the original artworks that are created by local artists.

Dave Dorsey has fall colors reflected in what maybe the Niobrara River?

Hedda Matheson used watercolors for this painting that depicts a buck and doe wandering the Sandhills.

Titled Home Sweet Home, this acrylic painting was done by Dave Dorsey.

Nancy Blumenstock used watercolors and ink to create this forest of birch trees.

Almost directly across the street is Plains Trading Company who has several items that showcase good taste as well as one of a kinds! 

 Each one of Pat Schemmer's raku pots is really one of a kind.

 But there's also some rustic good taste that can be imagined with all of these Red Wing bowls. How about a gigantic batch of chocolate chip cookies or even more rustic, oatmeal raisin!

 While wrapping presents, why not enjoy the good taste of one of these designer teas, above, or coffees below? Ahhhhhh....

Not interested in making your own coffee? The gift of good taste can be given all year long with a gift certificate from Auntie D's. Call ahead, and they'll have it waiting for you at their drive up window.

Yummmmmmm....what delicacies and desserts could these pots and pans deliver to your deserving loved ones. It's all in good taste for one of a kind dinners!

 Utensils are handy stocking stuffers and would really be tender to the pots and pans above!

 Served on these Christmas platters and serving dishes, your Christmas table will be a vision of good taste!

Your table will be spectacular with this dishware found at Flower Land! In ivory, sage and red; it's perfect for the Christmas festivities.

 More serving pieces match and will be a symbol of good taste!

 Whether they're for your table or for gifts, these placemats and napkins are nice.

The most important thing about preparing for Christmas is not to get squirrley! It's a celebration of LOVE! His love for us!!! His One of a kind, unsurpassed, deep, down, love! Face it, He's NUTS about you!!!
Merry, merry, Christmas!

Shiny gifts from the heart....

And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.” 

Do you have someone on your list that likes things that shine? That are sparkley? All things related to Christmas? 

There is plenty of those wonderful gifts to find here in the Sandhills... in the City with Heart! There are things for men and women on your list as well as the little ones. Let’s see some of the shiny!!!!

The glory of the Lord can be found at The Ark Christian Books and Gifts where they have many different crèche's.  They also have Christian Advent Calendars that sparkle with shiny glitter! 

Ornaments are shiny! Flower Land has ornaments in silver and gold, red and white, and fun shapes and sizes that would make beautiful stocking stuffers for newly wedded couples, or added to Christmas gifts under the tree. 

How about something shiny for the Christmas table? Janine's Emporium has something that will have you thinking all day long about what you're thankful for as well as sparkley serving pitchers and serving trays. Gift them to yourself for a festive Christmas table, or wrap them up and give as a gift. 

There's shiny for the guys as well....but for that we'll have to head to Bomgaars! How about some shiny grilling tools! Or a very, very shiny tool box?!

Alco also has a shiny something that would be good for the entire family...

Hoping this is helpful in finding a great gift from the heart!
