{Grandma Gifts}
If you've been wondering what to get your grandma this year I've got a few ideas that just may get her checked off your shopping list! These ideas are a bit out of the norm and I think she just might love them! To see me talk about them on live TV you can head over to Ch 4 ABC affiliate in SLC at 11:30 today!
If you missed it, here's the link to the segment: Good4Utah with Emily Ashby
Light Affection Lamp
I had never heard of these before so I was curious to see what they were! When I opened the box I was a little disappointed. It just looked like a white mold without much detail. But then when I plugged it in I was AMAZED at how cool it was!! I send a photo of the boys to the company and came back with this awesome lamp! (Not shown.)
You basically send the photo of your choice to Light Affection and somehow they make a lamp out of it. Grab on old photo of your grandparents wedding day and off you go!
Website: Light Affection
Price: $45-240 depending on the size
Company Info:
"Light Affections offer a special alternative to the traditional way of displaying photos. Light Affection frames are framed sculpture duplications of any photograph. The photograph is duplicated perfectly in sculpture and then combined with a beautiful lighting system that illuminates every aspect of the sculpture, creating a work of art that makes the memory displayed in a photograph seem as if alive and making it even more treasured. Based on an age-old art form known as lithophanes (Greek for vision in stone), the engraving of an image comes to life when illuminated from behind. The varying thickness of the translucent material creates the illusion of the original image. Just email a digital image or mail a physical photograph and the company generates the Light Affection without damage to the original image. Comes in sizes from night-lights to large frames in various styles and shapes."
Downton Abbey Fragrances
If you or anyone you know loves Downton Abbey and would like to go back in time this is the best way to do it! These perfumes are the actual fragrances that they high society ladies of the early 1900's wore! I tried the Lady Cora scent and actually really like it! Its not overpowering but has a rich scent that is great for me!
Great gift idea.
Website: downtonabbeyfrangrances.com
Price: They start at $75
Company Info:
The Downton Abbey fine fragrance collection are sensual and sophisticated perfumes designed to embody the personality and style of the central female characters of the show, including Anna Bates, Lady Cora, Lady Mary, Daisy Mason, Lady Edith, Lady Rose and Countess Violet. The collection’s fragrances are crafted in the artisanal method utilized by the master perfumers so highly in demand during the early 1900’s time period during which the show is set, allowing the fragrances to be very close approximations of the luxurious and complex perfumes which the high society ladies of that era actually wore. The rich and varied scents of the fragrances have been crafted from pure perfume oils, without alcohol, chemicals, additives, artificial colors, parabens or phthalates. These fragrances are pure and undiluted, vastly different than most perfumes on the market, which generally are up to 75% alcohol. Whereas alcohol-based perfumes evaporate in a rush, obscuring the delicate nuances of a fragrance’s complexity, the richness of each of the Downton Abbey fragrances can be appreciated much like fine wines. Each scent has top, middle and bottom notes that develop slowly after application on the skin, creating a sensual experience that lasts for and develops over a period of hours. It is this kind of painstaking fragrance artistry that allows the Downton Abbey collection perfumes to reflect the personality of the show’s characters.
