Memo No.039
Ordinary objects need not be ordinary.
Gift clichés are that for good reason. People give candles because "one can never have too many." The same holds true for most of the items on this Memo. Every room in the home needs a waste bin. A spare charger is never unnecessary.
Glasses break. Stationery gets used and needs replenishing. It's good to stow an umbrella, brush, and quality lip balm in your car. You get the gist. Everyone needs more than one of these, so
delight them with one that's more attractive than the one they already own.
These umbrellas are designed in Paris and $40.
A slew of beautiful colorways await.
This receives more praise than a Mason Pearson brush these days.
I love these for stowing birthday cards, kid memorabilia, printed photos.
Paper plates -- also perfect to pair with a postpartum meal train dinner.
