Summer Gift Ideas

During the summer, more so than any other time during the year, there are gift giving occasions. Between baby showers, birthdays, weddings, and anniversaries the parties abound! The balancing act many families face is finding an awesome gift that would be tailored to its recipient and not breaking the bank. I recently came across a website I wanted to share with you all, UncommonGoods.com. They have some seriously amazing finds, at great prices, and even better- they’re a company with a heart!
