2017 Gift Guide
![2017 holiday gift guide](https://chrissycarter.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/T51A3895.jpg)
My inspiration for this year’s gift guide was rooted in the principle that influences almost every purchase I make: versatility. I think versatility is so important when buying a gift, because while you may designate a specific purpose to an object, someone else might see it in a completely different way.
Each of these gift ideas can serve multiple purposes, and some can even satisfy multiple people on your list. Who knows, you may even snag a few of these for yourself!
