Chaletmomma Gift Guide 2025

Cheers to finding the perfect something for all the special people in your life!

Happy Shopping!

HER:

For me gift giving is a mix - of Art, Books, Store and Thrifted finds.

An unexpected piece of home decor, art in any form, create a gift basket: personal care (perfume, lotions, face masks), nail care (polishes, remover, accessories, stick-on nails, salon gift card) paper-goods (notebooks, pads, stationary), candles (different scents, shapes, tealight holder and tealights), plants (small plants with a watering can), baked goods (loaf of bread or cookies with a cook book), Matchbooks have become pieces of art - pair with a pretty dish. I never tire of gifting books. A Multitool is always handy. Darn Tough socks live up to their name. Watches for those who still wear them. Oh this speaker is terrific. Beer Making can be a ton of fun. Any of these toys are ready to spark imaginative play!

I hope these suggestions have inspired you!

A Day Spent in Summit, NJ 10 - 9 - 25

Hi friends my second excursion with my bestie Kristin found us in Summit, NJ, We shopped, enjoyed a wonderful lunch and shopped again all before 2:30pm!

Kristin, Mary, myself

Our first stop was MK Linens and Home. Owner Mary Kull is a delight and her shop is filled with the most beautiful items. Kristin ordered linen sheets and I picked up a new pair of branch candles in navy blue.


Next we visited Great House. Bonny Neiman has an amazing selection of interesting decor including vintage pieces and beautiful furniture. I picked up a cute match book to add to my ever growing collection.


We savored a delicious lunch at Summit House.


Our final stop was The Summit Antiques Center. There are so many dealers you are sure to find a treasure or two! I never leave empty-handed and I came home with a vintage pitcher and a print of a Venice canal.

I spent $77.00 on my candles, green pitcher, matchbook and Venice print.

If you’re in the area of Summit, NJ or even if you’re not I highly recommend a visit to this lovely town. The shopping and fine dining make it a destination. Til next time be well and I’ll see you over on Instagram.
