Holiday Gift Ideas from the Chicago Blogger Network

If you're still on the hunt for the perfect gift or looking to add more to your own wish list, check out the Chicago Blogger Network Holiday Gift Guide!

Over 30 local bloggers recommended their "favorite things" this holiday season and it resulted in one of the most impressive gift guides I've seen. It is filled with a variety of unique items, some of which are made by local designers and/or sold in local boutiques.

Yours truly also participated. Can you find my item above?   
hint: My love for this brand started over a year ago.

Then tell me, which item(s) did you like the most? Which one of your "favorite things" would you add to the list?

Send Virtual Christmas Carolers to the "Home" of Your Loved Ones

The holiday season is upon us! And the brilliant crew at TJ Maxx, Marshalls and Homegoods have partnered with Google to provide us with an alternative to the traditional e-card. Now, we can virtually send Christmas carolers to our family and friends.  

Not only can you select the song and optional effects (of course I chose snow), you can also enter the recipient's address to create a background using Google's street view of their home!

Pretty. Friggin'. Awesome.

Don't know the exact address? No worries. Choose one of the landmark options including Eiffel Tower, Big Ben, Times Square and more. Unfortunately, The Bean is not included. Maybe next year, TJ Maxx?!

Besides sending Christmas carols, you can purchase gift cards and peruse gift ideas recommended by the designer discount trifecta.

So, visit ShareACarol.com to send carolers to your loved ones. It promises to be one of the most unique holiday emails they've ever received!
