For the
Gift Giving Inspirations
Once again, we are about to
turn our attention to “what to
get for whom.” The pleasure
of gift giving doesn’t begin until the
item has been purchased, wrapped
and is in the hands of the recipient.
Up until that point, we worry about
whether we have spent enough and
have found something appropriate.
We hope that i f you present
someone on your gift list with one
of the items we have selected, he
or she will think you are a genius
for fulfilling an unattained dream. Gift
giving is an annual ritual. We hope
this helps.
A Gift of Art
Contemporary artist William Dexter created this
series of work he calls “Scarlet Ibis.” These elegant
red birds stand 37” tall and feature hand-blown
glass bodies, forged metal legs, and copper grass.
They are available at Galleria Misto, 100 Indian
Rocks Road North in Belleair Bluffs, (727) 559-7767.
