Message from Gail Ridings, TallGrass Owner

Inspiration. I've been fortunate to be flooded with so many inspirational moments lately and I hope that you, too, are willing and able to receive the incredible gift of inspiration in the variety of ways that it's presented to us, especially at this time of year.

Our soldier box/military women project was an absolutely extraordinary success - and the letters and cards we're now receiving from many of the recipients are so heartwarming! Shortly, we'll be bringing 200 stockings, jam-packed with toys and goodies, to the holiday party for underprivileged children at the Mountain Resource Center and seeing those joyful kids clutching their new gifts always brings me to tears of inspiration! Our annual holiday shopping spree party at TallGrass with treasured guests and fabulous staff is always special, but this year even more so as we celebrated our 20th anniversary! And, the recent snowfall that has transformed Evergreen into a sparkling, glowing winter wonderland is just so perfect for the holiday season!

I'm inspired every day by many things. Our ability to help others feel relaxed and rejuvenated is just one of them. Thank you for sharing yourselves with us for all these years. Your stories and friendships fill me up and I'm so grateful. I send blessings of joy, health and prosperity to you during this festive season and for the upcoming year!

Holiday Shopping — TallGrass style

You'll always find something new to surprise the special folks on your holiday list in the TallGrass boutique because we love helping you find terrific little treasures for gift giving.

Scented candles make great holiday gifts. And, we're featuring two new collections - Soy Delicious and Himalayan - alongside Aveda's soy wax candles in calming aromas of Shampure, Caribbean Therapy, and Comfort and Light. Everyone's favorite personal care products are packaged together in Eminence and Aveda's limited-edition holiday gift sets which, incidentally, are beautifully wrapped and specially priced at this time of year. Artisan jewelry from Desert Heart, Bloom and Tiger Mountain plus oh-so-comfy PJs, robes and slippers are welcome holiday gifts, too. And, for someone who needs to take better care of himself, the Dreamtime body wraps, shoulder wraps and eye pillows will absolutely do the trick.

Of course, TallGrass gift certificates are perfect gifts for everyone and don't forget that we make it easy for you to send a special request for the TallGrass gift of your choice by giving a hint to someone who wants to make you smile.
