Day 7 and 8
Happy Wednesday my fellow GIVERS!
For my day 7, I gave the gift of warmth.
I had a neighbor who needed a heavier coat. She had recently moved from California
and didn't have a winter coat. Well, I wasn't able to give her a winter coat. But since I have
been a Wardrobe Specialist for 25years I knew I could come up with something.
(I also wrote a book on Wardrobing)

I gave her a long pretty sweater coat that she could layer up with a turtleneck, boots,
jeans or slacks etc. I also gave her a reversible faux fur sable vest (was my favorite)that
she could put on top of a heavy sweater in rain or shine.
Plus it creates a sexy look too. Why not, right.! Be warm and sexy!
I also gave her daughter a black velvet vest that she could layer with her clothes as well.
Needless to say, we all were happy!!
As you probably have already realized, I love my neighbors!
Day 8 was pretty quiet but I did give the gift of listening to a friend in need .
Thank you for being a Giver and know that what you provide is an amazing gift
to you and the unexpecting!
Happy Giving my FRIENDS!

It seems like with our crazy weather, unless you live in south FL like moi, a gift of a coat would be lovely! Nice thought.

Thank you so much Deb!
This great journey has inspired me to do something similiar for children through my 'pookielookie.com fan' page on FACEBOOK. I called it POOKIE LOOKIE KARES FOR KIDS, 30 day challenge! For 30 days, give a gift to a child. It can be time , money, clothes or inspiration. Thank you 29gifts for the inspiration to 'pass it forward', to the children.
