One of the hot new trends we saw from our trip to Atlanta's America's Mart this January for our Accessories category, were the Guitar Straps.  We love the

variety we found, and the textures and colors really give you a new avenue to express yourself. 

The functionality is great, guitar straps can strap onto a purse, small duffel bag, and can even be used as a more decorative camera strap.  We love this new idea for adding your personal touch and style instead of using the basic strap that came on your piece.

We also loved the bangle wristlets.  What a fun way to easily carry around your personal essentials effortlessly.  The bangle slides right over your wrist, keeping your access to cash, credit cards, lip

balm and more right at your finger tips in a new, fun, and stylish way. Check out more at Treehouse Gift & Home or by browsing our website.

Your partner can light a candle in the shower when they are in the mood for self-pampering with a relaxing bath. They can light it before sitting with a book or when they need to focus on a work assignment. They can include it in their night-time routine to prepare for bed.
Go ahead and order their favorite scents right away!

2. Willow Tree Figurines to Put Love in Their Home Décor

If your partner gets excited each time when you talk about ways to incorporate style and aesthetics in the home’s interiors, they will love home

décor accent gifts like the Willow Tree figurines. Musical figurines will be even more thoughtful. Turn them on, and the soothing melodies will remind you of all the beautiful moments you have spent by each other’s sides. The Around You Musical by Willow Tree is a meaningful gift to celebrate your love and beautify your home. The hand-painted resin musical plays Romeo and Juliet’s love theme by Tchaikovsky.

3. Massage Pillow to Help Them Relax
A good massage alleviates stress and promotes relaxation. It improves mood by
stimulating feel-good hormones. When was the last time your partner got a massage? Has it been a long time? Wouldn’t it be wonderful if they could come home and get a nice massage every single day? We are talking about a Massage Pillow!

4. Travel Mug for Their Coffee to Go
Does your partner NEVER leave home without having a cup of coffee? They will get a LOT of use out of a good travel mug. On days when they are running late or when they are going to have a super-busy day at the office and will need a second cup soon, they can just pour their favorite brew in their travel mug and get going. Get them this spill-resistant, vacuum-insulated stainless-steel tumbler by Caus. You can say “I love you” to your partner without having to speak the words. Express your feelings with thoughtful gifts from time to time.

Even if you have beautiful floors that you want to show off, you can enhance the home's appearance by decorating with rugs. In addition to adding pops of color to a room, an area rug or hallway runner protects your floors and helps insulate the space. Here are several advantages of investing in these useful pieces of home decor.

Why Should You Use Rugs Throughout the Home?

1. Increase Comfort

Plush, soft padding underfoot makes walking through your home more pleasant. This is especially true if you have hardwood or tile flooring in the home, as these materials are hard. The cushioning effect is particularly beneficial for your feet, knees, and spine, as you have a soft, spongey surface that reduces the impact of every footstep. Additionally, rugs help keep the room warmer because they provide extra insulation. This means that you don't have to worry about walking on cold floors as soon as you wake up in the morning, making the experience more pleasant.

2. Protect the Flooring

While floors are durable, daily activities can slowly wear them down and damage them. Hardwood flooring is the most vulnerable to dents, scratches, and surface wear, but stray liquids and spilled food can also stain the carpet. Rugs provide a barrier to protect the floor from shoes, furniture legs, and pet claws. This is particularly useful if you like to change the layout of your furniture, as you can put items on the rug, preventing them from scratching the floor. If these decor items experience damage, it is easy to clean and replace them.

3. Reduce Noise

Noise tends to bounce off hard, flat surfaces, while softer materials absorb and muffle the sound waves. The more noise that is reflected back, the louder a space is. Since rugs cover hard surfaces, you can enjoy more peace and quiet in the home, even if you have young children. Additionally, walking across these floor coverings is quieter, especially if you are wearing shoes.

Lighting candles in your home creates a beautiful ambiance and fills the space with pleasant scents. They are especially popular during the holidays, and if you plan to use them, being careful can help you avoid accidentally damaging or burning your belongings. Below are several strategies to help you stay safe when lighting your favorite scents. 

How Can You Burn Candles Properly During the Holidays?

1. Monitor the Flame

Any candles you light should always be in your line of vision while they're burning. If you need to leave the room, extinguish the flame before exiting. Also, never light them before going to bed or taking a nap, as this increases the risk of an accident. Monitoring the candles constantly is especially important if you have young children or pets, as they may accidentally hit the table and knock the lit fragrances over. This can cause wax to spill and burn the surrounding area.

2. Use the Right Lighter

Trying to light a wick in a deep jar with a conventional lighter can result in burns, as you must reach into the container. Instead, invest in a long grill lighter, as this ensures your hand is far away from the flame. They are also easier to ignite, preventing frustration with lighting the wick. Plus, you don't have to turn the jar upside down when lighting the wick, which prevents wax from dripping on you or your household items.

3. Snuff the Wick

A snuffer is a metal tool with a small cone at the end that extinguishes a flame. They are useful because they deprive the fire of oxygen, ensuring it is completely extinguished. This is better than trying to blow out the candle, as it doesn't cause melted wax to move around. Additionally, a snuffer limits the amount of smoke that the wick produces, keeping the air in your home clean.

4. Move Flammable Materials

Paper products, hand towels, linens, and all other flammable items should be several feet away from open flames. Also, make sure there is at least 3 feet of clearance above the wick so that the heat doesn't damage your home's fixtures, such as mantles or bookshelves. If you plan to light multiple candles, place them at least 3 inches apart from each other.
