A masterclass in the art of gift-giving, featuring creative tips, insightful anecdotes, and dozens of brilliant gift ideas for every occasion
Within the glamorous worlds of design and art, Christine Gachot is known as the charismatic co-founder of the AD100 studio GACHOT, synonymous with seductive residential and luxury interiors. She is also, in certain circles, hailed as the undisputed authority on the art of giving the perfect gift. For Christine, gifting isn't a chore or a source of anxiety; it's a creative act, an expression of gratitude, and one of life's purest pleasures.
In The Thought That Counts, Gachot shares the secrets behind her gifting prowess through four sections:
- 'Best Practices' reveals the mindset and habits that help Christine approach every occasion with clarity, confidence, and delight.
- 'Take It Personally' uses intimate anecdotes - tales of surprise, ingenuity, and emotional resonance from Christine and a few of her acclaimed friends - to show readers how to transform even the simplest gesture into something meaningful.
- 'Tried and True' is a treasure trove of gift ideas for every budget, every milestone, and every person on your list. From a flower subscription that will delight the recipient again and again and pom-poms for your friend who needs special encouragement, to a specially inscribed book from your personal collection and a museum membership that will provide endless inspiration Christine's thoughtful ideas include both everyday treats and one-of-a-kind treasures.
- 'That's a Wrap!' demonstrates why presentation matters, teaching readers how to elevate a gift through imaginative wrapping techniques and finishing touches.
The book is a gorgeous object in its own right, with vivid color photographs and charming illustrations throughout, and a striking cover design. Playful, practical, and stylish, The Thought That Counts is more than a manual: it's a modern manifesto for joyful, expressive gift giving.
