I would fill it with hot wine (or grape juice for the kids) and put some raisins and nuts in there as we do in Sweden—and then take it to the beach. The Threshold Gold Dip Bowls would be super-cute on my gold-themed table. You can never have enough bowls in different sizes.

The holiday season provides so many opportunities for family bonding and togetherness, and that is what we look forward to as a family.

The Star Wars series brings back so many memories from my younger years. The Star Wars 6-pack Hero Series 12" Action Figures makes me feel like a kid again. As a little girl, I used to sneak into my brother's room to play with his Star Wars Collection toys. He used to tell me, "Stay away; don't touch," but I used to pretend I was Princess Leia, even though I knew I was not allowed to touch them.

The Threshold Porcelain Jewelry Dish with Antlers and Threshold Gold Ceramic Two-Tier Trinket would be great for my mother because she loves to decorate. It will be the perfect addition to her vanity area.

What are you most excited for this holiday season?
Christmas Eve at my parents’ house in Manchester, England. It's tradition in the Roberts family to sit in front of a blazing fire and write notes to Santa (wish lists for gifts and dreams for the next year), and then my dad puts them up the chimney and we all run to the window and watch the ashes scatter into the sky. I can't wait to see Rumi and Juno's faces!

The Mossimo Sequin Maxi Skirt, with a chunky knit for swishing around the house on Christmas Day like an eccentric old lady! I love the uber-glam mixed with uber-casual feel.
