Sometimes it can be tough to choose, so some whiskey themed accessories are perfect for the one who’s picky about whiskey.

The One Who Likes to Do Good
Awesome Non-Profits
We've worked with a number of great non-profits throughout the years, and we love the idea of giving a donation in the name of a friend. Previously we worked with Children's Therapy Center, a group that serves children with special needs, and Young Survival Coalition, a support group for women at any stage in the breast cancer journey. Currently, we are designing a website for BIAWA, a group whose goal is to increase public awareness, hope, and support to those affected by brain injury.
From all of us here at efelle, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, & Happy Shopping!
