 Hi, I'm Colleen, owner of Penny with a Twist and Grapevine. The holidays are coming up. I don't know if you knew it or not, but Grapevine is the Christmas capital of Texas. I thought I would give all you ladies some unique gift ideas for men that can be found right here in historic downtown Grapevine. I think it might be fun to get some of your friends together, do some shopping, come in and paint, and drink some wine while you're doing it. First, for the man who loves wine, you might stop at one of the local wineries for an annual wine club membership. And if you find a great bottle of wine, you could always have a custom wine label made. If you're coming from a winery, you might as well pick up a bottle for yourself, bring it in here, and paint a gift. A handmade gift is one of the most unique things you can give and is truly appreciated. Behind me are a few of the paintings that will be on the calendar in November and December. A third idea is the Grapevine Cigar and Tobacco Club. It's full of things that men love. A lounge membership would be a unique gift for a man who likes to smoke cigars or a pipe. A fourth gift idea for the man who likes to grill or cook, or maybe you just wish he did, you could give him some inspiration from the spice and tea exchange. They have a great assortment of grilling rubs, spice blends, and flavored salts and sugars. My fifth idea is if you want to go skiing this winter, drop a hint with the gift from CDSki and Sports. They have everything you'd need, equipment, winter clothes, and accessories. If painting a gift sounds fun, go on our website calendar and make a reservation at paintingwithatwist.com slash grapevine.
