										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Holiday shopping is my favorite type of shopping. I love buying thoughtful gifts for my family and friends. I usually do a combination of online and in store shopping. This year, I&#8217;m doing a bit more online because I don&#8217;t have the patience to stand in line outside the store as they let just a certain number of people in at a time to shop. One thing I&#8217;m doing more of this year is choosing to Shop QVC for the Holidays.</p>



<pre class="wp-block-preformatted">"<em>This post is sponsored by Sivan Social. All comments and opinions are my own.</em>"</pre>



<p>I&#8217;ve been shopping QVC for years, especially for holiday decor and gifts. I&#8217;ve discovered some of my favorite new-to-me brands on QVC and I&#8217;m excited to share them with you today.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Gifts for Women</h2>



<p>I live in Florida so I only need a winter jacket for about 2-3 weeks a year. The problem was, I hadn&#8217;t owned one in years. I saw <strong><a href="https://m.svnlnk.com/z/lwv0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">Cuddl Duds Sherpa Wrap Front Jacket</a> </strong>and knew I needed it. Mine is a few years old so it is slightly different than this one but I LOVE it. I&#8217;m excited that it might get cold enough for me to wear it a few days later this week! If you are looking for a cute, comfortable, and warm jacket this is it! </p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="667" height="587" src="https://themommaven.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Cuddl-Duds.jpg" alt="Holiday shopping is my favorite type of shopping. One thing I'm doing more of this year is choosing to Shop QVC for the Holidays. Cuddl Duds Jacket" class="wp-image-57709"/></figure></div>



<p>The other fashion brand that has become a favorite is Anybody. I have a few of their tops, and want some bottoms! Anybody says they are loungewear that lets you relax anytime, anywhere, and that statement is so true. Anybody is good looking comfort clothes for hanging out at home or out running errands, Anybody is perfect, especially for busy moms. I have the <strong><a href="https://m.svnlnk.com/z/lwvn" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow">Anybody Cozy Knit Rib Swing Top</a></strong> and the <strong><a href="https://m.svnlnk.com/z/lwvo" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow">Anybody Cozy Knit printed Cargo Wide Leg Pant </a></strong>on my Christmas wish list!</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img decoding="async" width="675" height="338" src="https://themommaven.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Anybody.jpg" alt="Holiday shopping is my favorite type of shopping. One thing I'm doing more of this year is choosing to Shop QVC for the Holidays. Anybody Fashions" class="wp-image-57710"/></figure></div>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Shop QVC for Gifts for Teens</h2>



<p>Even here in sunny Florida, UGG boots are all the rage. These<strong><a href="https://m.svnlnk.com/z/lwvk" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow"> Koolaburra by UGG Suede Bow Short Boots</a></strong> would be a very welcomed gift for any teen girl.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img decoding="async" width="714" height="617" src="https://themommaven.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Uggs.jpg" alt="Holiday shopping is my favorite type of shopping. One thing I'm doing more of this year is choosing to Shop QVC for the Holidays. UGG booth" class="wp-image-57711"/></figure></div>



<p>Everyone needs a reliable Power Bank and HALO is the brand to get. This <strong><a href="https://m.svnlnk.com/z/lwv7" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow">HALO 15,000mAh Power Bank with Apple, Micro, and USB-C cables</a></strong> is the perfect gift for anyone who owns a smartphone. This can charge up to 3 devices simultaneously! Never be caught with a dead battery again. It&#8217;s 5.5&#8243; x 2.85&#8243; x .88&#8243; so it fits easily in a purse or pocket and it only weighs 0.739 lbs making it great or travel or everyday use.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Family Gifts</h2>



<p>If you can&#8217;t gather in person with family this holiday season, do the next best thing, gather virtually. The <strong><a href="https://m.svnlnk.com/z/lwvj" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow">set of 2 Facebook Portal 10.1&#8243; Smart Display </a></strong>allows to you &#8220;be there&#8221; when you can&#8217;t be there. Amazon Alexa is built in as well so you get the bonus of having Portal also be your Alexa voice control unit for playing music, controlling your smart home, adding items to your shopping list and more. This set of 2 Portals means you can keep one for yourself and send one to the loved one you want to see more often.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="675" height="675" src="https://themommaven.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Family-Gifts.jpg" alt="Holiday shopping is my favorite type of shopping. One thing I'm doing more of this year is choosing to Shop QVC for the Holidays." class="wp-image-57712"/></figure></div>



<p>Here is another gift for the whole family to enjoy. The <strong><a href="https://m.svnlnk.com/z/lwvz" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow">ChargeHub X7 Signature Charging Station </a></strong>has 7 USB ports to allow the whole family to charge their devices as needed. no more fighting over the charging cable!</p>



<p>Here is a game the whole family can play, <strong><a href="https://m.svnlnk.com/z/lwvd" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow">Bounce Battle</a></strong>! Bounce Battle is the easy to learn and quick to play battle game of strategy, skill, and chance! Choose your color, pick your battle, and bounce ping pong balls into the game cube to win. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why I Shop QVC for the Holidays</h2>



<p>In addition to great prices and an amazing selection of gifts, I shop QVC for the Holidays because they often offer special deals like free shipping or 5 easy pays which allows you to pay over time with no interest, which can come in handy while holiday shopping. </p>



<p>In case you didn&#8217;t know, you don&#8217;t HAVE to watch QVC to order from QVC. Yes, there are limited time offers and specials which are easiest to find out about while watching TV, but you can shop QVC.com anytime. I hope you will Shop QVC for the Holidays this year.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>CardNow is a convenient way to keep gift cards on hand for when you need them without spending lots of money up front.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Have you ever needed a last minute gift for a friend or colleague? It can be a hassle to go to the store and hope they have the gift card you want to give as a gift. Thanks to CardNow, running to the store for a last minute gift is a thing of the past.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="675" height="433" src="https://themommaven.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/FoodieHeroImage_1080x.jpg" alt="CardNow is a convenient way to keep gift cards on hand for when you need them without spending lots of money up front." class="wp-image-57593"/></figure></div>



<p>With CardNow you receive a box of 25 inactive gift cards, ready to be activated from home at your convenience. It is the perfect solution for busy moms (or grandparents!) and even small business owners. When those last-minute gifting occasions like birthday parties come up, or you need to have a contest or giveaway for your business, or even reward employees, be ready with a gift card you can activate &amp; load from the convenience of your mobile phone! You can learn more at their <strong><a href="https://bit.ly/33RJb2m" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow">website</a></strong>.</p>



<p>This is a brilliant idea! It will make birthday and holiday gift giving so much easier. I&#8217;ll also be using it for incentives with my business teammates. I&#8217;ve also shared this info with our Children&#8217;s Pastor because we give out gift cards all the time at trainings and rallies and having them on hand would make her busy life so much easier.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="735" height="1102" src="https://themommaven.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Pin-A.jpg" alt="CardNow is a convenient way to keep gift cards on hand for when you need them without spending lots of money up front." class="wp-image-57594"/></figure></div>



<p>Each Starter Box includes a reusable box to store your cards in, 25 merchant gift cards from up to 5 different merchants and 25 gift card sleeves. The Starter Box costs $12.99. You get to choose from several merchants so your cards will be for restaurants, services, and stores you know your gift recipients will love.</p>



<p>When you’re ready to give or use a gift card, it takes less than a minute to activate a card with the mobile app. Simply scan the card, choose the gift card value, and pay. No buying cards in advance, just add value to a card when you are ready to give the gift. When you need more gift cards you just go on the app or website and order more&#8230;for free! <strong><a href="https://bit.ly/33RJb2m" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow">Order yours today</a></strong>!</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We love to travel and we don&#8217;t get to do it as often as we like&#8230;yet. Travel is a big goal for our future but no matter when you travel, there are products that make traveling easier. I know a lot of people like to travel and even more people like to give helpful and thoughtful holiday gifts. I thought I would put together a list of some gift ideas for friends and family members who like to travel. I hope you find my gifts for travelers helpful.</p>
<p><center><a href="http://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=876311&amp;u=337838&amp;m=19751&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack=" target="_blank"><img decoding="async" src="http://static.shareasale.com/image/19751/mixbook_summer_photobook_blue_5-16.jpg" border="0" /></a></center></p>
<h2>Gifts for Travelers</h2>
<h3>SanDisk Connect Wireless Flash Drive</h3>
<p>Have you ever been on a vacation, taking a lot of pictures on your smartphone and then the &#8220;out of memory&#8221; notice comes up?!? It is so frustrating. before we went on our cruise last year I picked up a 32 GB <a href="http://amzn.to/2gKkWI7" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><strong>SanDisk Connect Wireless Flash Drive</strong></a>. Each night hubby and I both downloaded all our pictures to the drive. We never had to worry about running out of memory! These flash drives are available in 32, 64, 128, and 200 GB sizes for $23.89-$86.09 based on size.</p>
<h3>BorrowLenses</h3>
<p>Do you know a traveler who is going on an epic adventure and needs a new camera or lens? Rent one! <strong><a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=868730&amp;u=337838&amp;m=12808&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack=">The Gear You Want When You Need It</a></strong> is the motto at BorrowLenses. Gift certificates are available and would make an amazing gift!</p>
<h3>Traveler&#8217;s Notebook</h3>
<p>All serious travelers need some type of traveler&#8217;s notebook to record their travels in. I recommend the affordable, recycled notebooks from <strong><a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=191710&amp;u=337838&amp;m=24028&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack=">Guided Products</a></strong>. Recycled notebooks come in 3 sizes and 3 finishes with prices starting at $3.49 you can&#8217;t go wrong.</p>
<h3>Photo Books and Calendars</h3>
<p>I have used Mixbook for years. I have made several <strong><a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=213160&amp;u=337838&amp;m=19751&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack=">Custom Photo Books at Mixbook</a></strong> and created calendars too. If you know someone who takes beautiful pictures of their travels a Mixbook gift card would be a very thoughtful gift.</p>
<h3>Thinium ReCharge iPhone Charger</h3>
<p>I&#8217;ve been using my <strong><a href="http://amzn.to/2gKxZcs" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Thinium RECharge iPhone Charger</a></strong> for a few weeks now. I think it is a good choice for travelers because you don&#8217;t need any extra cables. You can charge via the built in lightning dock or the attached USB. When you are back in your room you can plug the Thinium ReCharge into the wall outlet with the phone attached and charge both the phone and the battery pack at the same time. The ReCharge charges your iPhone quickly and can ReCharge your phone 1.5 times per charge. The ReCharge is available for $69.99.</p>

<h2>Gifts for Making Packing Easier</h2>
<h3>TUO</h3>
<p>You might remember back in April I introduced you to <strong><a href="http://themommaven.com/2016/04/tuo-makes-packing-easier/">TUO the Travel Undergarment Organizer</a></strong>. I love my TUO and it travels with me everywhere I go. If you are going on an overnight trip you can use it to pack most of what you need. For an extended stay, TUO keeps your unmentionables clean, safe and easy to access. TUO comes in 5 designer styles and costs $49.50.</p>
<h3>Miu Color Packing Cubes</h3>
<p>Where have <a href="http://amzn.to/2fLFXkO" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><strong>Miu Color Packing Cubes</strong> </a>been all my life? I learned about packing cubes a while back when a friend of mine posted a video about how she packed her family of 7 (including 5 kids under age 6) to move to Europe with only 1 backpack each! I was amazed and intrigued. I got my set of packing cubes last fall in time for our week long cruise and that is when I fell in love. My suitcases are so much more organized and my clothes stay neater when they are packed in cubes. What makes this even better? These cubes come in 3 different colors and are only $15.99 per set of 4.</p>
<h3>Shelfpack</h3>
<p>I haven&#8217;t tried this product yet but it is on my list. <strong><a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=916930&amp;u=337838&amp;m=65494&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack=">Shelfpack &#8211; A new kind of luggage with built-in shelves!</a></strong>! How absolutely cool is this? Talk about luggage organizing at its finest. The Shelfpack would have been pefect for Jordan when he was traveling the country with The 99 doing missionary work and living in host homes for 2 1/2 years. Shelfpack retails for $349.</p>

Are yours? While I was checking out some gift ideas for the guys on my shopping list, I figured I&#8217;d add some of the things I found to a gift post that will hopefully spark some ideas in you too. My guys are techies and musicians so that is why there are several gifts for those types of guys.</p>
<p><a href="http://themommaven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Christmas-Gifts-for-Guys-1.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-48603" src="http://themommaven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Christmas-Gifts-for-Guys-1-674x1024.jpg" alt="Are the men on your list hard to shop for?

<p>Aaron is a duct take hoarder. He has so many rolls I just go in his room and &#8220;borrow&#8221; some when I need it. I found this book, <strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003F76HP2/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B003F76HP2&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=mommav-20&amp;linkId=GI7C6UEFGSV5PMBE">Ductigami: The Art of the Tape</a><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" src="http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=mommav-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B003F76HP2" alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" /></strong> and thought he might like to find it under the tree.</p>
<p>Another cool item I found was <a href="https://www.thetileapp.com/#" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><strong>Tile</strong></a>. Tile is an iOS app that helps you find stuff. It helps you find whatever items you have attached a tile to. Tiles cost $25 each. If your husband or son loses their keys regularly, Tile might be the perfect gift.</p>
<p>Here are some more gift ideas for men:</p>

While I love and appreciate  a good surprise,  who doesn&#8217;t, I come from a family that shops better when they are at least given ideas of things I want or need. I am probably not alone in my situation so I thought I&#8217;d create a list of gift ideas for the women in your life. Be they sisters, cousins, moms or friends-if you are going to get them a gift, make it a thoughtful one.</p>

<ul>
<li style="list-style-type: none;">
<ol>
<li><strong>Jewelry</strong>-Jewelry doesn&#8217;t have to be uber-expensive to be appreciated. Some of these pieces from <a href="http://www.ekocreashunz.com/store" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"><strong>Ekocreashunz</strong></a> would look great under a Christmas tree. For a special occasion, you may give her a special ring from a jewelry shop like <span data-sheets-value="{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;Gema &amp; CO&quot;}" data-sheets-userformat="{&quot;2&quot;:4225,&quot;3&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:0},&quot;10&quot;:2,&quot;15&quot;:&quot;Arial&quot;}"><a href="https://gemaandco.com/collections/oval-moissanite-engagement-rings"><strong>Gema &amp; CO</strong></a>.</span></li>
<li><strong>Books</strong>-Books are rather personal and we all have our favorite authors I&#8217;d be happy with the latest <strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;field-keywords=karen%20kingsbury&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;sprefix=karen%2Caps%2C233&amp;tag=mommav-20&amp;url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&amp;linkId=QHVCKVUSGUYEOHVR" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Karen Kingsbury</a></strong><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=mommav-20&amp;l=ur2&amp;o=1" alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" /> or <strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;field-keywords=beverly%20lewis&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;rh=n%3A283155%2Ck%3Abeverly%20lewis&amp;sprefix=bever%2Cstripbooks%2C183&amp;tag=mommav-20&amp;url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&amp;linkId=MUXKY4EFJRX322PB" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Beverly Lewis</a></strong><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=mommav-20&amp;l=ur2&amp;o=1" alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" /> title.</li>
<li><strong>Baskets</strong>-I love decorating and organizing with baskets, so a new <a href="http://us.longaberger.com/pls/ngs/ngs_instore.show_product_listing?fn_category_id=4788" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"><strong>Longaberger</strong></a> basket is always a welcome gift.</li>
<li><strong>Purses</strong>-If she has a favorite <strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;field-keywords=vera%20bradley&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;rh=i%3Afashion-womens-handbags%2Ck%3Avera%20bradley&amp;sprefix=vera%20%2Cstripbooks%2C176&amp;tag=mommav-20&amp;url=search-alias%3Dfashion-womens-handbags&amp;linkId=O4KGJURQKXJWTGVU" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Vera Bradley</a></strong><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=mommav-20&amp;l=ur2&amp;o=1" alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" /> pattern or maybe she has been eyeing a Disney Dooney, Christmas would be a nice time to add a new purse to her collection.</li>
<li><strong>Clothing</strong>-Personally I&#8217;d rather receive gift cards to my favorite store, that way I don&#8217;t have to return clothes that don&#8217;t fit.</li>
<li><strong>Spa Treatments</strong>-A gift certificate for a mani/pedi, facial or massage is a great way to say, &#8220;I love you.&#8221;</li>
<li><strong>Movie Tickets</strong>&#8211; A <strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BXLTRNG/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B00BXLTRNG&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=mommav-20&amp;linkId=CC6OLZ5C7H7KXWQS">Fandango Gift Card</a><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" src="http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=mommav-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B00BXLTRNG" alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" /></strong> is a handy gift that can be used any time.</li>
<li><strong>Event/Concert Tickets</strong>-One word of caution here&#8230;Give her the actual tickets not an &#8220;I promise to take you to&#8230;&#8221; note. My friend&#8217;s husband promised her an evening at a huge concert for their anniversary last year and when he finally had the money for the tickets, the show has sold out. She was understandably hurt and sad.</li>
<li><strong>Tuition</strong>-If there is a class she has been wanting to take but has been putting off, pay her tuition. I hope to take a Wilton Cake Decorating class in 2015 at Hobby Lobby. If someone paid my tuition as a gift, I&#8217;d be grateful.</li>
<li><strong>Time</strong>-I say it all the time that I am more about spending quality time with people and making memories together. Plan to spend the day together and if needed, pay for <a href="https://seattlenanny.com/"><span data-sheets-value="{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;nanny services&quot;}" data-sheets-userformat="{&quot;2&quot;:4224,&quot;10&quot;:2,&quot;15&quot;:&quot;Arial&quot;}">nanny services</span></a>. You could also to babysit for free so that she could enjoy some alone time-we all need that!</li>
</ol>
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Bonus</h3>
<p>Every month I tell you about <strong><a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=534567&amp;u=337838&amp;m=38044&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack=">Beauty Box 5</a></strong>, and a subscription would make a great Christmas gift for any woman who loves beauty products. My November box included a refillable travel jar, Dove body wash, Hask Macadamia Revitalizing Shine Oil, Laura Ashley Body Butter and DenTek Floss Picks.</p>

<h2>About Pee-wee&#8217;s Playhouse</h2>
<blockquote><p>Pee-wee’s Playhouse is an educational, artistic and entertaining show that teaches kids strong ‘life lessons.’ With its innovative production design and Reubens’ rich original characters and humor, <strong>Pee-wee’s Playhouse</strong> is a magical place that sparks creativity and imagination—and brings joy to children and adults alike. Parents and grown-ups have always enjoyed the show’s many double entendres. The series features beloved regulars Cowboy Curtis (Laurence Fishburne), Reba the Mail Lady (S. Epatha Merkerson), Miss Yvonne (Lynne Marie Stewart), Captain Carl (Phil Hartman), The King of Cartoons (William Marshall), Jambi the Genie (John Paragon), Ricardo (Vic Trevino) and Mrs. Rene (Suzanne Kent). And of course, Chairry, Pterri, Conky, Magic Screen, Clocky, Cool Cat, Dirty Dog, Chicky Baby, Penny, the Dinosaur family, and the rest of the gang!</p>
<p>TV Guide named <strong>Pee-wee’s Playhouse</strong> #10 on their list of THE TOP 25 CULT TELEVISION SHOWS EVER! For over 25 years, the enormously popular Pee-wee Herman and innovative television series Pee-wee’s Playhouse, created by, and starring Paul Reubens, has captured a special place in the hearts of millions of viewers, young and old. Since its initial premiere on CBS in 1986, this highly acclaimed children’s program became Saturday morning appointment viewing for kids in the ‘80s and ‘90s and has been a staple in the pop culture zeitgeist ever since.</p>
<p>Scream along to the secret word with Pee-wee Herman and his pals: Jambi the Genie, Miss Yvonne, Cowboy Curtis, Reba the mail lady, Captain Carl, Magic Screen, Conky, Globey, Chairry, Pterri, Randy and all the rest. Pee-wee’s Playhouse: The Complete Series Blu-ray box set, with special bonus content, debuts on home entertainment shelves October 21, 2014 from Shout! Factory. Also available to own on the same day is Pee-wee’s Playhouse: Seasons One and Two in a high-definition 4-DVD set. Mecka-lecka hi, Mecka-hiney ho!</p></blockquote>

<h2>Mom Maven&#8217;s Thoughts</h2>
<p>Even though I was an adult when <strong>Pee-wee&#8217;s Playhouse</strong> was a Saturday morning staple, I still watched the show. I had a co-worker that was addicted to the show and she would talk about it all the time, so I had to check it out. So far I&#8217;ve watched the first few episodes of season 1 and boy has it brought back memories. I remember wanting to own my own Chairry because that was the coolest chair ever! Cowboy Curtis and Miss Yvonne are old friends and it was nice to get reacquainted with them. I had forgotten all about Penny and the Dinosaur family and I laughed out loud when they came on the screen.</p>
<p>I have enjoyed reliving the fun of <strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JHH21FY/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B00JHH21FY&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=mommav-20&amp;linkId=FOOFHS7GLLVZLA6Z">Pee-wee&#8217;s Playhouse</a></strong><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" src="http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=mommav-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B00JHH21FY" alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" /> as I watched the first few episodes. I can&#8217;t wait to share <strong>Pee-wee&#8217;s Playhouse</strong> with my kids! This will also make a great Christmas gift for the Pee-wee&#8217;s playhouse fan on your list.</p>

<p>This post brought to you by <strong><a rel="nofollow" href="http://app.socialspark.com/disclosure_clicks?oid=361372">Pier 1 Imports</a></strong>.  All opinions are 100% mine.</p>
<p>One of my favorite stores to shop in for gifts is Pier 1. They have gifts that are unique, beautiful, quirky and fun. This year I am trying to be more creative in my gift giving so perusing the <strong><a rel="nofollow" href="http://app.socialspark.com/clicks?lid=1712&amp;oid=361372">Pier 1</a></strong> website has sparked a lot of creative thoughts&#8230;and added some ideas to my Christmas wish list!</p>
<p><img decoding="async" style="width: 201px; height: 201px; float: left;" src="http://i508.photobucket.com/albums/s324/PrincessTinkLuvsJesus/blog stuff 2010/2478544.jpg" alt="" />We go all out when it comes to decorating our home for Christmas. I have a large snowman collection and I would love to add some of the adorable Pier 1 snowmen to my collection. If you are panning on doing some <strong><a rel="nofollow" href="http://app.socialspark.com/clicks?lid=1722&amp;oid=361372">holiday entertaining</a></strong><a rel="nofollow" href="http://app.socialspark.com/clicks?lid=1722&amp;oid=361372"> </a>Pier 1 has something for every decorating style. I have some favorites in each of their holiday collections: Christmas Couture-think Paris meets North Pole, Yuletide Treasures-Classic Santas and Snowmen, Gilded Forest-earthy, Flights of Fantasy-exotic colors, feathers and sequins, Merry &amp; Bright-Christmas cheer!</p>
<p>Pier 1 has some great gifts that the ladies in my family will love! Beaded candleholders, eco-friendly totes, animal print compacts, jewelry-the ideas are endless. Pier 1 has great stocking stuffers too! Lots of fun, whimsical items are under $5 each. <img decoding="async" style="width: 240px; height: 240px; float: right;" src="http://i508.photobucket.com/albums/s324/PrincessTinkLuvsJesus/blog stuff 2010/2480963_2480976.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Pier 1 is giving back to the community this holiday season by partnering with Toys for Tots. During November and December you can drop off an unwrapped toy or make a cash donation at your local store. Also, if you &#8220;like&#8221; <strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pier1?v=app_4949752878#!/pier1">Pier 1 on Facebook</a></strong> they will donate $1 to Toys for Tots.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m off to do more shopping at Pier 1!</p>

In a nutshell you can customize a card where 2 to 5 photos can be brought to motion on a card, check it out<a href="http://www.snapily.com/b/" target="_blank">http://www.snapily.com/b/</a>.</p>
