This is the story about a young lawyer, our daughter, Alex, and her husband David moving into their first home. Alex has lots of questions about how to make their space reflect both of their styles. Of course, I am here to guide her. As a stylist, I have lots of ideas and opinions about how they should style their house, but...One of the most important things to think about when decorating is to express yourself. Artwork is the best way to do this. Alex and I picked a few pieces that would reflect her love of abstract art along with a few quirky additions.When Alex asked me where to start, I suggested Minted. The thing that is so amazing about Minted is that all of the artwork they sell is commissioned, and the art is originally created for the Minted Collection.Alex picked artwork that worked well on her gallery wall. Using various sizes makes the wall interesting. Their Corgi Cornelius even got into the act!

With the holiday season upon on us, I had an idea for Alex. Why not gift some art to friends that are like her - they are moving and decorating their first homes? I think that art is really the perfect gift. Minted has all sorts of sizes and styles and affordable choices. What better way to gift a memento and keepsake and a memory?

Alex wrapped a small canvas for a friend using minted wrapping paper. It's a piece of art of something pleasing and personal.
