Have you celebrated a milestone birthday with friends? Or would you like to? How about having each friend bring one of their favorite things to share with the group and everyone goes home with a bag full of goodies? Sounds great, right?!!!
Well, my friend Susie, author of the novel, On Grace, posed this question on her blog and asked me to create my own “fantasy” swag bag for a friend’s birthday in a few choice categories:
Book
I would definitely have to include newly published Style & Simplicity by Ted Kennedy Watson, because it’s a book that everyone can savor.
For a novel, I would include A Hundred Summers by Beatriz Williams, as it’s just a wonderful, juicy story you can get lost in. Word is out that she has penned another zinger of a novel, so hope to have more on that soon!
Beauty Product
You’ve seen the write ups, but I have to say, it’s as good as they say. Cle de Peau’s concealer! It lasts forever and it really is amazing!
Snack Food
I’m pretty much a smoothie nut….many days for breakfast. Sometimes in the afternoon to ward of the munchies. And, if I’ve overindulged for a while, even for dinner. So, I’d bring everything to make fresh smoothies for everyone.
Music Album
I have Pandora on all day at my house. Favorite channels include: John Legend, John Mayer and Samantha James. I appreciate that you select an artist you like and then they find other artists similar to that and create a “mix” for you.
Anything Else
As a pen and paper gal, I would have personalized note pads from Haute Papier for everyone and a bundle of Le Pen’s in a rainbow of colors wrapped up in ribbon.
Next Monday, you can see what my friend Sue, of The Zhush, would include in her swag bag. No doubt it will be hip and cool…just like Sue.
So, what would be your must-have item for your friends? We all want to know!
Elizabeth! I love everything you chose and am so on that plane to St. Barts with you! Thank you so much for participating in my Blog Hop. What a fun write-up. Can't wait to see what Sue puts together next week!! xo Susie
Such a gracious and thoughtful friend! Let's see…I'd invite friends up to our summer home in Maine and present them with a baskets full of local goodies: books by Maine artists, regional cookbooks, beach rocks from town, and of course, lobster roll certificates from my fav shack! xo
Elizabeth,
Love how you roll~ My must have item for my friends would be a travel art journal and tiny travel watercolor
set by Windsor Newton. A micron pen and I would include a treat to inspire and keep the artist within satisfied. Sparkling water and a lemon to remind my friends to make lemonade~

Wow this is like the goodie bag to end all goodie bags!! I love your choices, a bit of everything!
I would have to include a smores set so we could build a fire on the beach and relive our teenage years, a pair of flipflops to insure that we are all comfy and casual and a bottle of sunblock and a cute visor so that everyone knows this is all about hanging at the beach:)
Good morning Elizabeth! What a swag bag you have created!! For a beach trip, I would probably include custom Tervis Tumbler cups with tops, with a fun quote or remembrance of the event…and a great book we could all read together!
Funny you chose St. Barth's…I had just been thinking of St. Barth's and you together…hmmm…
Have a wonderful week! xoxo
What a fabulous bag of goodies! How could that one be topped?!!
Just what I needed, I am taking a dear friend out for her birthday on Friday and didnt know what to get her!
Ooh, I love all your goodies and will have to buy the books now!
I'm taking part on this blog hop on 9th, so I'd better get choosing my own 'must haves' for my goodie bag.
Excellent goods from you, gentlemale. I’ve perceive your stuff past to and you’re simply extremely wonderful.
