Today’s guide comes from a good friend and the creative mind behind one of my absolute favorite gift stores, Currie Person of Spartan.  If you haven’t discovered Spartan and its sister store, Bows+Arrows, yet, you need to!  Currie stocks her store with unique pieces for the home and garden, distinctive jewelry, well crafted leather goods, and various curiosities sure to please the design minded shopper.  Her guide focuses on the art of gathering and entertaining. Enjoy!
