Top 5 Gifts For Her
1) Handcrafted Custom Wine Stopper
Raise a glass to a custom wine stopper that bears a map of a meaningful location. It’s handcrafted in Maine with the coordinates of your choice placed atop a pewter base that’s designed to patina slowly over time.
2) No-Spill Aerating Wine Glass
A spill-proof wine glass that looks as good as it is enjoyable to sip from. Each glass spins on a stainless steel ball, aerating wine—sip by sip—without spilling a drop. (It looks pretty cool, too.) Want to slow things down? Oak coasters hold a glass upright and still. Made in the USA.
3) Ultra Light Carbon Fiber Trekking Poles
This set of super light trekking poles can make any outdoor excursion—from walks and hikes to backpacking and snowshoeing treks—more enjoyable. The adjustable poles lend support on all kinds of terrain and the lightweight, collapsible design makes it easy to take a pair along with you.
4) Premium Wine Making Kit
Craft a Brew partnered with some of the world's most respected vineyards to bring you a DIY home wine making kit that will make outstanding wine right out of the box. It is designed to allow customers to make the best possible wine in their own kitchen on their first attempt.
