Why pick gift ideas that start with D? Better question, why not?
Sometimes you just want a theme to tie your gifts for someone together. Or hey, even a whole party!
Once upon a time, I threw a party for my daughter’s 12th birthday, and we called it a “Party on a Stick.”
The invites came glued to popsicle sticks, all the food was kabob style, and you’d best believe we had a pogo stick contest!
My point? It was a little odd, a bit weird, and definitely outside of the box, but you know what? We still remember it as the best party ever.
So, why not get creative and give some gifts that start with the letter D?
We know Danielle, Delaney, David, Dakota, Diego, Dallas, D’Shawn, Dylan, Dana, and all the other D’s will totally approve. What a great idea!
Stick around and we’ll share with you some great gift guides and ideas for the best ways to celebrate with the letter D.
