Black Friday. Small Business Saturday. Cyber Monday. A late Thanksgiving. 32 more shopping days left. ugh. All these pre-holiday stats just stress me out. And my husband just asked me the other day, “When are we putting up our lights?” Don’t even get me started on the holiday card fiasco. Family photo. no. Card design. no. Stop the madness!
Obviously it was time for me to give the holidays some thought. So I’m starting with the best part – the gifts. I found some great gift ideas while searching online and now I’m really feeling it. Here are some of my favorite gift finds for under $20, under $40 and under $60. I would give these gifts to anyone on my list – and I would also welcome any of these gifts myself…hint, hint.
Click on the links below to go to the original sources and then let me know if you have any reasonably-priced great gift ideas. And, although I may not have started my holiday shopping, I do have a lovely, ready-to-be-used wrapping station! I’m thinking, if you build it they will come. Right?
UNDER $20 ::
- Double Pearl Earings from Etsy, $18.90 | Such a cute and clever solution for earing backs.
- Personalized Journal from Minted, from $16 | They have tons of cover design options, and the front and interior can be personalized. You can choose different inside page styles too like blank, lines, graph, address book or planner and I love that it’s spiral bound. Perfect gift for teachers!
