We were in our little piece of gifting heaven when we got asked to host a seminar last week at the AmericasMart International Gift Market.  Three buildings full of all the lastest products and gifts in the market … and our job was to walk through them all, pick out our Top 10 Picks and present them in a seminar to retailers and gift shop owners.  Not too shabby of a gig 🙂

Be sure to check out the linked presentation below if you are interested in what gifts we picked out.

(We gotta be honest, we felt pretty VIP being all over the elevators!)

Check out images, company names and showrooms of our Top Ten Gift Picks from the 2013 America’sMart International Gift Market. Feel free to check out their site to find more info on the companies we chose as well.

With Father’s Day this Sunday, you might find yourself still without a gift for dad. But don’t worry: It’s not too late to get him a great present.

Check out the blog post on EOnline that talks about Johnny Knoxville giving Jeff Tremaine a gift he found on TheGiftInsider.com.  He gave him this gadget that makes indoor rainbows any place you want. Fitting since Dickhouse Productions’ logo (the production company behind Jackass) is a big, huge rainbow.

We’ve known that Knoxville and the crazy kids at Dickhouse have been fans of The Gift Insider for a while now, they approached us in December to help them find cool and ridiculous gifts for clients for the holidays.

Goes to show that everyone could use some help finding sweet gifts, even celebs.

So excited the word is spreading to Hollywood …
