PICKING THE PERFECT GIFT

The image, the size, the display - these are all important things to consider when choosing wall decor as a gift. It should be something the recipients will love, not just something you'd like yourself! Here are some tips for selecting the best piece to show just how thankful you are for their friendship:

• Snoop around their house. Not into drawers and closets, but try to get a feel for the decorating scheme. If they like simple wallpapers and light shades, go for a picture in this same vein. Are they more into bold colors and styles? Choose a photo that reflects this wilder version of their personalities.

• Bring up home decor-related conversations, and then listen. Do they mention an area they wish was better decorated? How about a color scheme in the planning stages? If a blank wall is a subject of despair, sneak a measurement so you can order an artwork of the perfect size.

• Concerned about picking the right thing? Consider ordering a small image. No less thoughtful or eye-catching, a little 10x10" or 15x20" print fits perfectly in the front hall, office, or stairwell, and won't take over. Or, if you really have no idea, you can always just ask! It might not be a complete surprise, but it won't be any less appreciated.

• Still stuck? Why not opt for something that suits the holiday? A seasonal canvas print can be a great option for hanging in that space usually reserved for the Christmas wreath and the summery wall decor. Go with an autumnal image in rich orange and yellow - pumpkins, fallen leaves, a country scene in sunlit hues - that can be displayed right through until Christmas, or all year round.

• Once you've settled on the image, consider the presentation. Do they already have a number of canvases hanging in the home? If so, you might choose to stick with that display, or pick out one of our beautiful canvas floater frame to accentuate the picture.

• If you don't have access to the perfect image, or for any other reason you're unable to select a canvas print or frame, why not let them pick their own, on you! We offer Gift Certificates in custom denominations. We can send the recipient the code via email, or print a physical certificate and mail it straight to them!

WHY WE EAT TURKEY ON THANKSGIVING

A colonist William Bradford noted in his journals of 1621 - one of the earliest sources to mention Thanksgiving - that wild turkey existed around the area in which he was residing with the pilgrims. He also mentions that "wild fowl" were hunted for the Thanksgiving meal. While this could just as easily mean duck or goose, the specific mention of turkey was drawn upon when the journals were reprinted in the mid 19th century, around the time many people were pushing for Thanksgiving to become a national holiday.

Dur to this mention, and the fact that turkey was seen as a distinctly "American" bird, when Thanksgiving was named an official national holiday in 1863, turkey rode these coattails to become the meal of choice for every discriminating American thanks-giver!
