Shopping for gifts is not easy. Sometimes it can be downright frustrating. Finding something unique, thoughtful, and within budget can be a daunting task. My mom happens to be one of the best gift-givers ever. She always seem to pick just the right thing that the recipient absolutely loves, whether it’s for a child, man, woman, whatever. I, on the other hand, have a much harder time.

Have you had a chance to browse the selection at RedEnvelope? I was surprised at the vast selection of gifts, most of which I had not seen before. What I like best is that most of the selection is comprised of useful items and not just one-shot frivolous ones. Take for example this Cubist Appetizer Serving Set.
How cool is this?!
The base tray is very lightweight and has an espresso finish. It’s supposed to be wood but it feels lighter than that. Either way, I like it. It is sturdy enough so that you can use it anywhere. There is a separate slot for each of the included trays and they fit perfectly. The glass trays themselves are solid and thick. They have a slight ripple texture that adds a modern touch to the otherwise classy design. I love the little picks and the holder for them in the middle of the tray.
We have a ton of anniversaries in my family during these months so I know exactly who this one is for. If you are looking for wedding, baby, or anniversary gifts try checking out RedEnvelope.
