Holiday gift ideas!

Normally I start Christmas shopping way ahead of time, but am not on the ball AT ALL this year. Although I do have some ideas of what I'm getting everyone, I just have to get my butt in gear! I'm a huge fan of customized gifts, I just feel like they are from the heart so Etsy is normally my go-to. They have everything from humor to sentimental which is the perfect variety for the entire family. These are just a few ideas and if you like them I've included the links as well :)

'Gift Ideas'
I bought these hammers last year for my dad & hubby that said:
'Dad, thanks for NAILING mom.'
& 'Daddy we love BUILDING memories with you.'
 I also love this 'we flippin' love you' spatula &
'pour some sugar on me' tea // coffee spoon 
This funny & accurate bottle opener 
is perfect for beer lovers! 

'Wine glasses'
I feel like drink ware is one of the easiest gifts to give.
Just choose a cute wine glass + a bottle of wine.
You can find something sentimental:
Or these funny wine glasses are here

'Blankets'
One year I threw together a few blankets with the no-sew method! Joanne's & Hobby Lobby both have cute, affordable fabric. If you don't have time for DIY here's another option: 
These throws from Pottery Barn are super soft and cozy.
You can personalize them with an initial or a monogram.



I absolutely adore these fleece blankets from the Disney Store. They come out with new designs every year and are perfect for kids.
P.S. They go ON SALE before Christmas!

'Keychains' 
Last year I went keychain crazy.
'You get a keychain, you get a keychain, everybody gets a keychain!!!'
(I hope you just channeled your inner Oprah)


'Aprons'
Okay so I found these Disney Aprons on Etsy and about died at how cute they were!! They have every character and come in adult sizes too! 
That brought me back to this apron I made a few years ago for my MIL. It was sweet & affordable and goes to show you that the best gifts come from the heart and don't have to cost a lot! 
Love to bake? 'Watch me whip' apron /
click here if you like to 'eat meat.'

'Coffee Cups'
Coffee cups can be both silly or sweet, depending on the recipient. You could also do a coffee cup + Starbucks gift card or maybe a box of K-Cups!
Or my personal fav 'black like my soul' mug

'Home Décor Ideas'
I have one of these personalized last name signs in my home that I absolutely love and have given a few times as a gift. You can customize with last name / kids name or last name / wedding date or family / grandkids names - they have so many options!

A few other home décor choices :)


My favorite store - small wood home - go check them out for some cute options :)

'Tea Towels'
I was browsing on Etsy for a tea towel to order for myself and found these so I had to share! 

'Gift Baskets'
Gift baskets are great too! Just pick a theme or a
'favorite thing' and turn it into a basket. 
My inspiration here was the $1 section at Target.
I found these tea towel and wine glasses for $3 each and just added some orange juice & champagne!
I found these themed basket ideas on Pinterest. 

Since I know my sweet, wonderful mom reads my blog, I'm just going to leave my 'wish list' right here ;p

I just want to say 'Thank You' to everyone that reads my blog, I really appreciate each of you! 
If I find anymore ideas, I'll update :)
