I love colorful, fun, affordable Christmas gifts -

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Pier 1 Imports. All opinions are 100% mine.

I found a neat site with beautiful ideas for Christmas.  I've seen this store for years - ever since i was teenager, but this was the first time I've explored it, and I was able to explore it for holiday gifts without going out into the cold and fighting for parking space.

What's really neat about Pier 1's website is that it's not just an online catalogue for Home accents and attractive furniture; they also have lots of helpful material on the site.

One way they help you out is with an 'Idea Room' that gives guidance on how to create and attractive and useful living space.  The Seasonal page even includes a Holiday Planner in their Idea Room, as well as a Spring Preview and the "Legend of Li Bien.".

One item I love in their Idea Room was the  "gift closet." I've actually been doing that, in a sense, for years; ever since my kindergartner was invited to five birthday parties within a two week period.  As our family grew and my children came more frequently to me at bedtime with all types of 'next-day' events they "forgot" to tell me about; the need to keep last minute gifts on hand became vital.  Pier 1's ideas for keeping a gift closet are really helpful.

In their holiday gifts section, they have a Penguin theme going on with some things this season, and that's intriguing to me because I have a sister that's really into penguins. I also  would love to dress my dining room table with Pier 1's  colorful tableware - including festive napkin holders.  Even though we won't be inviting anyone other than immediate family this year, I've been learning as a grandmother how important it is to celebrate family and go the extra mile to let your kids and grandkids know how very important they are.

Along with their colorful home decorating treasures, they have a clearance and special savings corner, and a Daily Deal with a mind blowing bargain on a different super-neat item every day. You can access the printable coupon for the Daily Deal directly at Pier1.com or by joining them on Facebook.  Remember - they're good for only one day, so you have to hurry.

Further - You can spread the Christmas Cheer through Pier 1.  During the months of November and December you can support 'Toys for Tots' through Pier 1 by dropping off an unwrapped gift, donating at the check-out counter, or by joining them on Facebook.  For every new fan, Pier 1 will donate $1 to Toys for Tots.

Just looking at their pages gets me excited with ideas.  Have a great Holiday!
