2016 Gift Guide for Stocking Stuffers (Under $25!)

My sweet mom Santa still fills everyone’s stockings, but as of two years ago, my older sister started doing hers and I am going to contribute this year too! I love the idea of cute, but inexpensive stocking stuffers that are actually things people would use, not just toss away. Here are nine of my favorite finds under $25!

Fun matches, like these from Anthropologie ($8), this amazing disco ball ornament from CB2 ($1.95), this Swedish sea salt soap from West Elm ($5.50), or this Voluspa mini candle from Anthropologie ($8) would make anyone’s Christmas morning. I also adore this pink unicorn ornament, this glass tree and this candle holder– all $9.95 from CB2 (great deals!). 

2016 Gift Guide for the Decorator

Happy Thanksgiving Eve! I’m so excited to head to my parents house tomorrow morning and spend the day with everyone (most importantly, my little sister’s new puppy, Colt). I hope you have fun Thanksgiving plans too.

Today’s gift guide is aimed at the person in your life who loves interior design and decorating. Whether it’s this beautiful gold bar cart (currently $40 off!), this unique rose gold lamp (currently $15 off!), or this Howdy door mat, anyone who enjoys sprucing up spaces would be thrilled to receive those gifts. 

2016 Gift Guide for Baby’s First Christmas

I remember when Isla celebrated her first Christmas (around 6.5 months old), family and friends mentioned that it was difficult to come up with fun things to buy her. But let’s get real – at that age, she really only cared about the wrapping paper. I did a gift guide for a one year old (here), but think that gifting a little one for their first Christmas can be about memorabilia, like this gorgeous Paloma’s Nest ornament or this customizable Christmas storybook. And then there’s the numerous Santa items; for example, these PJs, this bib, or these socks

2016 Gift Guide for the Girly Girl

Today’s holiday guide would make Elle Woods swoon. So. Much. Pink. For any girl in your life that appreciates a pretty poufy swan keychain or the perfect pastel mani, I think these suggestions will suit her just fine.

To start, this Kate Spade jewelry box with the gold bow detail would look good on any dresser, but even better if it had this gorgeous sparkly number or these dainty earrings inside. If she’s a ring collector, I would opt for this pink ‘Pardon My French’ porcelain box I own this Eliza Gran tote, and love it so much that it made a trek across the Pacific Ocean to Australia with us last January. The pink pom-poms are the best.

2016 Gift Guide for the Gadget Guy

Today is all about the Gadget Guy, so basically I had a ton of help with this post. Since my readers don’t typically fall into this genre, I’m going to do a bit more explaining today than the previous two days (do you really need me to detail the purpose of a vase?). I think these nine items are super cool, and I’m even including two on my own Christmas wish list!

I’ve got three more gift guides coming up for guys, so if your spouse, dad, boyfriend, guy friend isn’t super techy, have no fear! Hopefully I’ve got you covered in days coming. But for now, let’s dive into these gadgets.

Roomba: This one is a no-brainer. Everyone I know who has a Roomba loves it. You can schedule the time for the Roomba to start, and it goes to work, moving around your house, sucking up bits of dirt and dust. I remember reading about the Roomba in a marketing book at Texas, thinking it was the most robotic and futuristic thing ever, which makes me feel old now that it’s pretty commonplace! This is a gadget everyone needs!
