2011 Holiday Gift Guide – Now Accepting Submissions

For the first time ever, The Girl from the Ghetto will be featuring a 2011
Holiday Gift Guide. I’ve been hosting book and product reviews and giveaways on this blog for years–but this year I thought it would be fun to profile some of my favorite products, as well as find new items that would make great gifts for my readers. I also wanted to do this gift guide because each year I donate new, unwrapped gifts to several local charities. Since my charity budget has decreased this year, I thought this gift guide would be a great way for me to donate more items to Michigan charities.

I’m looking for the following products to be featured this year:

  • Gifts for Women, such as gift cards, books, CD’s, DVD’s, jewelry, make-up, hair styling products, handmade and other items, electronic items, holiday decor, food, toiletries, household goods and organization supplies, candles, lotions, stationary and thank you cards, clothing, coats, hats, gloves, scarves, blankets, and any unusual or creative items.
  • Gifts for Men, such as gift cards, books, CD’s, DVD’s, electronic items, sporting equipment, cards and other games, collectibles, toiletries and shaving kits, food, clothing, coats, hats, gloves, scarves, blankets, etc.
  • Gifts for Children ages 3-5, such as toy phones, G rated DVD’s, toys with lights and sound, books, simple puzzles, cars & trucks, toy animals, tractors, trucks, balls, arts & crafts, snow toys, dress up clothing and costumes.
  • Gifts for Children ages 6-12, such as G rated DVD’s, Barbie’s, clothing and accessories, dolls, art supply kits, handheld or board games, jewelry, CD’s, trucks, Lego’s, action figures, balls, board games, Star Wars items, craft kits, hair accessories and Bionicles.
  • Gifts for Teens, such as books, PG 13 DVD’s, CD’s, iTunes or other gift cards, board games, MP3 players, headphones, hats, sporting equipment, scrapbook supplies, card games, jewelry, nail polish, makeup, video games, lotions, Nintendo DS games, Wii games, sportswear and digital cameras.
