Very embarassing to admit that our last gift guide – and journal entry – is from three years ago. How is this even possible? Well, maybe there was a lot of other stuff (bookkeeping, inventory, keeping the store neat and tidy, caring for a child, … you name it) but to be honest, I often felt uninspired to write.
This past year has been the most challenging in my private and work life and while I am not quite sure where my journey will take me, I leave you with this year’s gift guide and hopefully some inspiration on what to give to your loved ones.
