Christmas Gift Ideas: Interior Décor Presents
By Jeanette Joy Fisher

the past. Get the picture touched up professionally and frame it in a frame that blends in with her home decorations.
5. Give your friend a huge candle dressed up with pearls, sequins, or seashells with a base that matches her style. For instance, if she loves silver, crystal, ceramics, or brass, choose that material.
