Last Minute Gift Ideas

If you’re anything like me this year, you may be doing a lot of last minute shopping. Thank goodness I am pretty much finished (finally), but I wanted to put a few things together for those of you who still have a few more things to get. I know I wouldn’t mind receiving any of these! A lot of them would make great stocking stuffers, too!

Holiday Gift Guide: Shop Small

Holiday-Gift-Guide-Shop-Small

I can’t believe we have less than 3 weeks until Christmas! After spending all day Saturday decorating Christmas cookies and the cooler temperatures finally hitting home, it definitely put me in the holiday spirit! If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you know how much I love shopping at small shops! Supporting small business owners is so important to my family because many of them are moms just like me who are trying to earn a living from home. I thought it would be fun to put together a holiday gift guide featuring their amazing work! I have had the pleasure of working with several of these this year and it has been so much fun! 



For Baby:

Pacidoodle® and Paci Clip and Keep – I blogged about this a while back and SR still loves her. They are wonderful and would make a wonderful gift.

Baby Bows from Meghan and Julie on Etsy

Personalized Baby Blanket – SR still sleeps with hers every night and loves it! It is so adorable and has held up really well.

Monogrammed Burp Cloths – These burp cloths are precious and we use them all the time. I love having personalized one for when we are out and about or with lots of other babies so we can tell them apart very easily.

Freshly Picked Moccasins – These moccs continue to be my favorite baby shoes. SR’s first shoes were the little pink crib moccs and she looks so adorable in them.

A Custom Baby Romper – I had SR’s designed when she was about 1 month and I am obsessed with it! You can choose any fabric and they are beautiful and really well made.

Personalized Baby Blocks

For Her:

Tulle Skirt 

Gold Bar Necklace

Druzy Bangle from Lemon Sweet Jewelry on Etsy

Boss Mug from The Trendy Sparrow

Books + Coffee Tee


Peppermint Bark Candle

Time for Cocoa Top from I Do Declare Boutique – I can honestly say it is one of my favorites and I wear it ALL the time.

Coffee and Mascara Sweatshirt

Adorable Cardigan from Oakleigh Rose

Planner

Monogrammed Clutch

Holiday Gift Guide: For Her

I seriously can’t believe we are already talking about Christmas and Gift Guides. Is it that time of year already? I was thinking at first that it was too early to start talking about Christmas presents, but then it hit me that Black Friday is next week. Jaw drop. Because we spent 7 hours in the car on the way home from Florida yesterday, I had a little bit of time to start on my lists of ideas for my family and friends. I figured the best one to start us off would be the gift guide for all the ladies in your life!

I also just bought my first bath bomb by Lush while I was in Florida and I am officially a fan. I also bought their sea salt spray for my hair and I am obsessed! I love hair products and trying new things! I also own this coffee tumbler and it is a favorite of mine.

How to Save Money This Holiday Season

I can’t believe we are already talking about and preparing for the holidays! This year has really flown by for me. I am beyond excited to celebrate more of SR’s firsts through the season and even more excited to start my Christmas shopping! Because we are on a super tight budget right now, I compiled a list of ways to save money this Holiday Season and thought I’d share them with you!

How_To_Save_Money_During_the_Holiday_Season

Ebates is my number one when it comes to shopping online. I love shopping through Ebates because I can shop at my favorite stores and earn cash back with every purchase. Shopping online is so convenient, but I also saved around $100 on Christmas presents last year by using Ebates! I shop through them year round!

Zulily is a great discounted site for kids and women’s clothing and accessories. I have made so many purchases through them since having H! I like to loko at their women’s clothing from time to time, but I mostly shop here for the kids. They have huge name brands that they feature like TOMS and American Girl. I love getting their email alerts for when my favorite stores are on sale at Zulily!

Shop the Sales! During this time of year, it is fairly common to find great sales. In particular, on Black Friday and Cyber Monday which brings me to my next point…

Black Friday Deals! I scored some amazing deals last year on Ryan’s present and even for clothes for the kids! If you don’t want to fight the crowds, most stores now put their sales online, too. Be sure to check them out and shop through Ebates to double the savings!

Amazon is also a great place to save money – particularly on books and electronics. My husband and I are huge readers, so we are constantly on Amazon seeing what kind of deals we can find on the latest novels. Amazon has great sales on electronics this time of year as well, so if you’re in the market for a new camera or computer, be sure to check them out there first before going to Best Buy.

Put a price cap on your gifts. We do this every year and it helps us budget for Christmas. It helps us to know about how much money we are going to spend on everyone to keep things fair and also to keep us from spending a fortune or going Christmas crazy. Not that I’ve done that before.
