E&E – what wonderful ideas! But, the descriptions for 18-20 were cut off and I’m dying of curiosity to know just what 18 is. Seedpods for planting? Chocolates in beautiful and unique packaging? Something else?
Thank you so much for putting this together and including me! These are all excellent gift ideas.
TBD, 18 comes through fine on my system. Here are two links:

Mrs. B., To borrow a fine observation from Aesthete, I didn’t have to wrap a thing. You all did the hard work. I marveled at each suggestion.
