ShopTalk: Five Gifts for Nesters

Treats for homebody special.

	Winner Takes All Who needs a trophy wife when you can have prized possessions in the form of decorative pieces? Don’t be fooled by their brass composition: These trophies go for the gold in housewarming gifts ($55).

	Calendar Girls Natural selection tells us this ecofriendly 2010 calendar is better than the rest ($34). Botanical silhouettes (printed on recycled paper using soy inks) bring serenity to the hectic day-to-day.

	Gone to Pot Don’t be an herb. Give your buds the attention they deserve in the form of modern wool cozies ($54). Felted by hand in cool color combos, they give unexpected texture to a growing garden.

	Feeling Bookish Wow intellectuals with a beautiful custom-bound copy of their favorite read (starts at $600). Either provide a copy yourself or have Thornwillow Press do the searching for you. Easy as ABC.

	Air Supply Two becomes one in Takumi’s brilliant mini chimney ($177). The humidifier slash diffuser not only brings moisture to the air but also scents it using essential oil. Get a whiff of that.
