Sometime in the past few days I became obsessed with getting letterpress cards for Christmas. Problem is, they are a little pricey. One of the companies that stood out in my web travels was Egg Press, based in Portland, Oregon.
Their designs all seem to be simple, sweet and often whimsical. Check out this cute little monkey, candy, holly and the “sweetest holiday wishes” greeting. Just perfect.

I found this tree topper while browsing the Pottery Barn website for all of their new Christmas goodies. Its beauty and simplicity really struck me.
I love the idea of a mirrored tree topper instead of a lighted one, to reflect all of the lights on the tree already.
It’s a little rustic, a little vintage, and sure to stand the test of time.
And at around $40, it won’t break the bank, either.
