I’m sure you have noticed that all the stores have already put all of their Christmas decor out. Everywhere I look is flooded with Christmas. So this is the best time to buy your wrapping paper and ribbons while there is still a great selection.
I use to spend hours wrapping presents, then I let life and being lazy get in the way and went with the dollar store paper and stick on ribbons. Pretty tacky. This year I am going to make them pretty again. There are so many pretty papers out there and they are already on sale, so get yours now while you have a good selection.
Can you guess my colors this year? haha
Stocking Stuffers and Hostess Gifts are another thing that I am always on the look out for. Here are some fabulous suggestions that range from $1 to $5. Most would be perfect for any lady or teenage girl on your list.
Who doesn’t love some fabulous soap to encourage her to take a nice long soak in the tub.
A candle is always perfect and if it is in a gorgeous gold glass container, it is even better.
A small weekly planner and pin for her purse, plus a tiny calendar that has a magnet or can be hung up is always useful. Any teenager will love this kind of gift.
Some pretty notepads are always good too. We use these things all the time, so how about some pretty ones. I love the larger one with a magnet, perfect to put on the side of the fridge and jot down things to pick up at the grocery. Use the medium one on your desk and how about the small notes with a pin for your purse.
What lady wouldn’t love a glitzy mug for her coffee or tea. Just as elegant as a fancy teacup.
I think this one is fabulous for either a lady or a gentleman. Perfect desk accessory for the professional and right at $10.
A velvet lined case with a magnifying glass and letter opener.
Hobby Lobby, Home Goods, Target, Michaels and the Dollar Store are all great places to find the perfect thing. Just keep your eyes open and think outside the box.
