Creative Gifts For Kids

I have many young nephews, nieces and cousins tumbling around, so I am constantly on the lookout for creative gifts for kids.  It’s easy to get them a cute plushie and there is nothing wrong with that.  Kids can never have enough cute plushies.  However, I like to give them something that will spark their imagination, get them outside playing or the beginning premise for a new adventure.  Here is a list of my top imaginative gifts for the little ones: 1. Bike Chalk Trail Kit, 2. Animal & Monster Hand Tattoo Sets, 3. Make Your Own Kaleidoscope Set, 4. Coal Gum

Retro Nautical Swimsuits

This summer retro swimsuits with a nautical air are in! I absolutely love these swimsuits with navy stripes. If you are looking for the perfect gift for a friend – with a summer birthday – these are a great option. On the other hand, summer has arrived and you might be looking for a cute swimsuit for yourself. I know I am. This year I plan to keep my promise to go to the beach at least every couple of weeks. It’s a shame to live in Miami and never enjoy the amazing beaches we have. How about you? Any plans to leave the bat cave this summer? 1. Contrast Panel Belted Bandeau Swimsuit by ASOS, 2. Colorblock Short-sleeve Tank Swimsuit by J.Crew, 3. Mouille Santorini One Piece Swimsuit

Any fans of pop culture TV shows the likes of Lost, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Parks & Recreation and The X-Files are in for a treat. Artist Patrick Fatica, has a talent for capturing my favorite  characters in his paintings.  The image above is Patrick’s rendition of Jack Nicholson’s character, Jack Torrance, in The Shining. In this piece, as in many of Patrick Fatica’s pieces, I am drawn to the storytelling he accomplishes through the character’s eyes. The eyes are a well of unanswered questions that draw you into Patrick’s work, leaving you admiring the details and searching for answers.
