BE a Giver 1

Check out my gift recommendations for hostesses, pets, stocking stuffers, kids and grands below! Each board includes one 'blue ribbon' gift designated as such because it is a gift that gives back. We love those! Enjoy ✨

A special BLUE RIBBON gift for anyone on your list would be something from Butter Cup & Joy -an amazing jewelry shop owned by one of my friends! They offer one of a kind pieces all with meaning and a portion of their profits is donated to the National Alliance for Mental Illness- NJ. Please support this amazing business and cause!
