St. John gifts: what are you giving?

Post by liamsaunt »

Who is giving St. John themed Christmas presents this year?

For John I am doing a Caribbean box with a copy of the latest St. John magazine, the 2012 Steve Simonsen calendar, valley doll hot sauce, and kiss of the jumbie coffee (all ordered from St. John Spice of course!), and I have just decided to add in a framed photo print of St. John from the air by Don Hebert for his office.

I also made him a travels photo album on shutterfly. It has photos of everywhere we traveled last year so it is not exclusively St. John, but about 40% of the album is St. John related so I am counting it. Of course the ultimate goal of this gift is to inspire him to book us another trip! :wink:

My sister is getting something similar but with Cruz Bay grill rub and St. John spice vanilla in place of the hot sauce and coffee since she does not use either. And her photo album is all pictures of her kids having fun on the island.

What St. John-themed gifts are you giving this year?
It's like looking in your soup and finding a whole different alphabet.

I am, to Pete, but I can't share the details here. Although, it's not much of a surprise because the box came when I was called to FLA at the last moment due to my Dad's condition and Pete texted me: "We got a big box from St. John Spice...what's that all about?" Ooops. At least he doesn't know exactly what's in it.

Missing St. John. As always.

And my best friend is getting the petrograph charm (for a necklace) I bought at Freebird. I love this charm and bought myself one also.

Every year this Selfish Santa gives herself the latest issue of St John Magazine, and this year I am adding this pink shirt from St John Spice...

I had every intention of ordering the new STJ Mag and some other stuff from STJ Spice but ran out of time.
