Gift Guide Part 2 - Nature Lovers and Travelers

I just got a ton of decorative paper in the mail. I can't wait to use it. I'm already inspired and have a bunch of ideas. I actually started on a journal yesterday. I have finals tomorrow so I probably shouldn't have started on a craft project, but I got inspired and it's a good stress reliever. I don't want to say what it is yet, but I'm working on a more unique journal that I think will turn out nice. I can't wait to list it. :)

I noticed 2 of the items I listed yesterday in Part 1 of the gift guide sold. I don't think either were because I blogged (they're just popular shops), but you never know. It's interesting to notice things like that. Here's part 2 of the gift guide - gift ideas for nature lovers and travelers.

For the Nature Lover

I was surprised how many nature items I found. Nature themes seem to be pretty popular in crafting - a lot of animals like owls, birds and deers are used in craft items.

Golden Pine Cone Gold Hoop Earrings



These pretty earrings are gold pine cone shapes. I love the idea of bring nature in to jewelry.

Large Autumn Tree Wall Decal



This large scale wall decal would be great to transform a room. My old room (at the house I grew up) has different seasons on each wall and I've always loved nature themes in rooms.

Autumn Sunset A Bird on a Branch Silk Clutch



This cute clutch feating a bird on a branch would be a great gift.

Summer Daydream Photograph Print



You can find a lot of photos of nature, but I like this one because it captures a simple moment in nature and uses some text. It says "It was all a beautiful dream" at the top.

Carved Into a Tree Mug



This creative mug is perfect for somebody who likes the outdoors or camping. It is carved to look like a tree trunk.


For the Traveler

These would be great gifts for people who love to travel or are interested in other areas of the world. I stuck mostly with a map theme.

Map Chair



I've had this map chair on my favorites for a while and I love how creative it is. It's kind of expensive, but very admirable.

Paris is Calling Earrings



These would be great to get for a gift to someone who loves Paris or is planning to travel there. I love the Eifel Tower pendants.

Blue Felt Texas



This is a pillow shaped in to the state of Texas. I love the idea of state shaped pillows. It looks so cozy too.

I Heart Illinois Necklace



This is the jewelery version of the pillow above. It's the shape of Illinois in a necklace. I love the little heart cut out of the pendant.

The final part of the gift guide will be up tomorrow. Have a great weekend!
