Top 5 leather gifts to give on Thanksgiving

Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough – Oprah Winfrey

Hello Peoples!

Thank you so much for sending in your comments and feedback for my last blog on Raju (Here’s the link to that blog). I am overwhelmed by your response to the blog. Like me, so many other people were inspired by his vision to rise above all challenges.

Moving on…

A few days ago, I met two American travelers, Sheryl and Damien Prescott, who visited our Rustic Town store in New Delhi. They seemed like a happy-go-lucky couple, enjoying myriad experiences they encountered since they landed here (Trust me; every Westerner will vouch for that!)

They were looking for some leather bags to gift during the upcoming ‘Thanksgiving Day’, to be held on November 27.  “Thanksgiving is a huge deal in North America and we want to gift our family members something from India,” Damien said.

Meanwhile, Sheryl was gung ho about the fact that she and her family will be together after 10 years during the Thanksgiving weekend, and the atmosphere will be filled with talks of love, family, fun & food.

The current season seems to be really special in America, what with the onset of Halloween, Thanksgiving, Black Friday and Christmas, leading up to the New Year.

As someone living in India, the idea behind the festival of Thanksgiving was a bit foggy for me – I knew about it only in bits & pieces through popular social media. You know the usual stuff – Thanksgiving Meal, holidays, eating large Turkey bird for dinner, etc.

Behind the festival (and the associated holiday), they told me, lay the hidden meaning of Thanksgiving – gratitude. Thanksgiving is all about saying ‘Thank You’ to everything and everybody around us.

Sheryl added, “It is important to recognize the value of blessing in our lives. It acknowledges the power of grace and giving.”

The thought behind this festival also echoes in my life and family, as I also inculcate the values of responding to someone’s help, effort and gift in a positive manner – it’s the thought that counts. The custom of Thanksgiving, thus they both felt, is an important way to remember all of that.

Another great aspect of this day, Damien said, is the celebration of togetherness and family. People get together and enjoy the spirit of familial bonds that they share. Gifts are exchanged, family ties are reunited, and shopping season beholds everyone during this time. “It’s probably the only time we all are together,” he concluded.

After they left the place, it felt as if I was talking to my closest pals. They bought from me many items to gift their loved ones back home - two satchels, two leather journals, one passport holder, a ladies bag, cell phone covers from themselves, and a small duffel bag.

I made a promise to be in touch with them, and have specifically asked for their Thanksgiving photos!

While they bought many of our bestsellers bags and accessories for Thanksgiving, why don’t I suggest some of my own favorites you can gift your loved ones during the festive day?
