Favorite Christmas Catalogues

I don't get too many of these, but one I like is Norm Thompson.

Any good ones out there with unique gift ideas?

I don't remember the name of it, but I found one a while ago that was sort of pottery barn knicknacky and very nice looking that was *packed* with really nice (non-cheesy) angel stuff. If I didn't pitch it in the holiday cleaning spree, I'll post the name for all the Pi Phis.

My current fave, however, is Sur la Table. They have a pink espresso machine. It's just the most fabulous thing ever. Unfortunately it's $700 But that, and the rest of the catalog, is good for drooling over.

Neiman Marcus's 2003 Christmas Book

You know you want the 44 carat fancy yellow diamond ring...or the made to order mermaid suit.

LOL!!! I've just gotta get that mermaid suit! Think it might drive Hubby crazy and lead to some "hot monkey love"!!!

I've always been a fan of the Victoria's Secret catalogue. Whether it was Christmas season or not

I like candy catalogs. Best one ever: Susie's South Forty Confectioners...sweets to die for! I get my DH's favorite stocking stuffer from there--

Hand made Pecan Toffee covered with Belgian Chocolate.

I can never decide what to order, though. Lots of Texas themed stuff.... check it out! Yummmm...I may have to have my brother in Midland pick some up for me this weekend!

Totally forgot about James Avery Craftsman

Men-you cannot go wrong if you buy something for your Sig. Other from this catalog. Its handcrafted jewelry--made in the Texas Hill Country. They are famous for their religious items & sterling silver...but there are only retail outlets in TX, OK and GA, so the rest of the world misses out (unless you get on the catalog mailing list).

One of my sisters just got the Cartier one. I don't think any of us will be purchasing anything, but it's nice to at it!

You know I'd never even heard of Cabella's until I went to Platteville...
