are the ones you buy for yourself.
That's not to say that my thoughtful hubby and darling children are not great gift picker-outers.
They are.
But sometimes there are those special, unexplainable, and dare I say quirky, items that a girl can only buy for herself because...well...more than likely she is the only one (with the exceptions of her like-minded friends) who can fully appreciate their wonderful-ness.
I had purchased a french bottle drying rack from Tracey at French Larkspur and was able to pick it up from her when I went to Kasey's event in Illinois.
I had admired these beauties for a long time and knew it would fit perfectly in an ackward spot in my kitchen and serve as a perfect place to display some of my smaller ironstone pitchers.
Merry Christmas...to me!

Jill, I only know this too well! Haha! I actually have two of those French bottle dryers, but have them put away for awhile. Love them too much to let them go yet! Wishing you a very Merry Christmas, and an awesome new year! Happy junking in 2010!
