Weird Gifts for the Person Who Has Everything
Rx: For the person who already owns one of everything
Some people have everything, except a rug that looks like it's melting into the floor. When normal gifts won't land, go so weird they couldn't possibly have bought it for themselves. Every pick here is a conversation starter that still does a real job, like holding flowers, lighting a room or catching a nap.
