  Gifts for Grads: Frame the Memories!

  Looking for a perfect gift for the graduate in your life? Nothing could be more personal than framing a favorite photo as a gift, especially for high school grads headed off to college. I'm sure you agree - taking the time to print and frame a digital picture can take some serious effort, and is something that often is put at the bottom of the to-do list. That's why I love this photo collage frame from personalizationmall.com: you can pick any one-line message and it is lasered into a matboard. Just print a few photos for the back! Tip: it looks even cuter when you let one photo cut across two letters. For something a little simpler for the green-loving grad, what about the Mariposa recycled aluminum frame? It's glamorous and eco-friendly! Check out my slide show for other great photo frame gifts for grads!

  Tech Savvy Gifts For Grads!

  When it comes to high school and college grads, tech-savvy gifts are some of the best around. There's so much on the market though, so it's important to figure out what they already have and what would make a good addition to their lives. For instance, college grad moving to a new city? How about the Garmin eTrex Legend GPS to help them find their way around their new home? High school grad was a cross country superstar? I think an iPod shuffle would be a perfect gift to accompany them on their runs in college. If your niece graduated with a degree in environmental science, how about the solar battery charger to help her charge her phone while out on a clean-up site? Check out my slideshow for lots of other tech savvy gifts for grads!

  Hot in the Hive: The World's Smallest Postal Service

  My friend Amy is afraid of miniature things. To say the least, she would be terrified if I sent her a letter from Leafcutter Designs. The San Francisco-based "World's Smallest Postal Service" creates 120 word messages on teeny tiny 1x1.5 inch stationary and sends it off to the address of your choice! Your letter arrives in a tiny envelope, stamped and addressed to your recipient, which is wax-sealed with your initial. It arrives with a small folding magnifying glass so your lucky recipient will actually be able to read your message. These tiny letters are a very special gift and a perfect touch for a special thank you note, birthday card, or a "just because" note. And at just eight dollars, the price is right for such a sentimental gift!
  
  
  Price: $8-10

  White Apricot's Holiday Wishlist proves once again that a green lifestyle doesn't have to be so granola. The grey dara v-neck sweater by EDUN is sure to become a wardrobe staple because of its versatility and fun wing details on the back. The Oceana Seaglass Dinnerware by Vivaterra made of recycled sea glass has me building an entire kitchen around plates - they will really compliment my imaginary ocean view. The I'm Tired Of bracelets help you stamp out crises from AIDS to animal cruelty - a gift that truly gives back. For more great green gifts, check out White Apricot's Holiday Wishlist!
