Clutter-Free Gift Giving

Q: How can I participate in holiday gift giving without creating clutter?

A:  Here are several ideas to help you be a clutter-free gift giver.

-Anything perishable!  Good wine or a special micro-brew beer will get used quickly. Not the year-long sampling- just a bottle or 6 pack.

-There are hundreds of recipes for edible and drinkable treats that can be assembled inside a jar such as cookies, soups and hot cocoa. Check out:

-Gift card to a favorite store. Consider your local shops when possible.

-Instead of a hard cover book or cd- consider an e-book gift or I-tunes gift card?

-A year- long membership to any of the museums we have in Pittsburgh.

-For the coffee drinker- consider a specialty coffee or free refill card to their favorite establishment.

- A charity or mission donation in someone's name.

-Gift certificates to a nail or hair salon. 

-Movie or restaurant gift cards

-Tickets to a show or sporting event will never need any dusting.

In case you're wondering....gift certificates to Organization Lane  are available too ;) www.organizationlane.com
