HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE

BY BECCA HENSLEY

Flummoxed each holiday season with that annual ritual of gift giving? One rule of thumb helps narrow things down: spend more on a gift for someone than you would spend on yourself. And, for heaven’s sake, buy something for someone that they’d actually want—not something to encourage them to be something they’re not or something you want them to be. To whit, whether you’re buying to show love, pay homage, or mend a wrong, we’ve collected a shopping cart of artful presents sure to bedazzle. All you need now is the bow.
