I had the opportunity to receive three very unique gifts to review
{Wine for Two - $20}
This unique little piece is handmade from a retired French or American Oak wine barrel stave. It can be a nice centerpiece at a dinner for two or great to display. The wood is unique looking and I think it would make a nice gift.

{Recycled Wine Bottle Platters - $20}
These platters are handmade from 100% recycled glass and take over 8 hours to create. They can be used for cheese, candles, candy, fruits, nuts, and more. I am going to use mine to display candles. They really have some of the best wine gifts!

{Fondue for Two - $20}
This cute set is great for the three of us to enjoy fondue...I'm thinking chocolate and fruit!
My Thoughts: I think UncommonGoods is a great website for that unusual and unique gift! Whether you are shopping for gifts for wine enthusiasts or unusual gifts for women, they have a lot to offer. I already have my eye on a couple Christmas gifts for family.
Shipping was fast and everything was packaged tightly and came in good condition.
