Artsy pocket mirrors reflect good taste in gift-giving

Every once in a while you find something that meets the criteria of the perfect gift: It comes in different styles for everyone on your list, it's something that will make the recipient smile and think of you each time they use it, and it's amazingly affordable. The miracle gift? Pocket mirrors from My Favorite Mirror.

These little mirrors pack a lot of personality for just $6.50. Illustrated by young and budding artists, they come in dozens of designs from sweet to kooky. They feature black-and-white illustrations of "Alice in Wonderland," flirtatious drawings of women from the '50s, too-cute animals at play, flora and fauna, funky patterns and more. My favorite is an adorable little chickadee perched on a branch. Each mirror comes in its own colored velveteen pouch for safekeeping in your handbag. Available at Bluebottle Art Gallery and Store.
