12/17/2020 0 Comments LAST MINUTE AFFORDABLE GIFT GUIDEWith the holidays seemingly already upon us, time feels like it's slipping away for any last minute shopping. Here are some affordable(!) gift ideas for the different types of people in your life (links included with each photo)! Whatever you decide to get your loved ones this season, I hope that through your giving, their receiving brings you mudita! For The Fashion Lover... 1. Baguette Bag : This baby bag has been all over street wear photos and Pinterest. It's the cutest size and goes with any outfit, making it an easy and wearable addition to any fashion lovers' wardrobe. 2. Claw Clips : Another strong trend right now, claw clips come in a wide range of colors and patterns. They go with any outfit, are easy to use, and look oh-so effortless. 3. Shoe Laces : An affordable way to spruce up an item someone already owns and loves. I'm asking for yellow industrial laces for my Docs for Christmas, but you can also get colored laces to make a shoe monochromatic or go for a fun pattern. For The Home Decorator... 1. Squiggly Candles : These candles surfaced on TikTok as an easy DIY trend of pretty pastel candlesticks molded into fluid forms. For the last minute, you can make this gift yourself! Click on the photo for the link to a YouTube how-to. 2. Tableware : Add a pop of color or a unique dinnerware piece to someone's collection. Anthropologie and Urban have some of my favorites! 3. Art Print : Another gift that you can make yourself to add a handcrafted touch, or you can purchase a print at a variety of boutiques or larger chains like Target or Ikea. If you're in Athens, Wuxtry Records sells huge prints by different musicians! For The One That You Love But Don't Know What To Get... 1. I Love You Book : Sometimes you don't know what to get someone but want to show that you care. With books like these, you can show your appreciation for a loved one through your own heartfelt words in a gift they will treasure forever. For The Outdoorsy... 1. Glass Water Bottle : Make sure they stay hydrated on their next outdoor adventure with a quality water bottle. Glass is healthier to drink out of and better for the environment, but make sure to look for one with a cover to eliminate shattering. 2. Indoor Plants : With so much more time being spent inside recently, bring the outside in for your friend that loves nature. Research plants suitable for the indoors and paint the potter if you want to add a your own touch! 3. Extendable Fork : A two-in-one deal! Next time they go camping or to a bonfire, they can eat dinner, cook something over the fire, or make s'mores, all with one fork! For The Techie... 1. AirPod or Phone Case : Cases are becoming more and more of a fashion statement. Give someone a new way to protect their technology with a design that perfectly matches their aesthetic. 2. Blue Light Glasses : Many are forced to spend more time on a screen nowadays, but blue light glasses can prevent some of the headaches and eye strain that come with technology use. More affordable non-prescription frames are available on Amazon with fast delivery. For The Spiritual... 1. Crystals : They come in all shapes, sizes, and textures so you can find the perfect one to add to their collection. To add your own memento, write them a note about the crystal's properties and meaning. If you're in Athens, shop local at Margot! I didn't link a site for this gift because it is usually best to buy crystals in-person. 2. Essential Oil : From lavender's relaxation to peppermint's added energy, find the right scent for them to use in a diffuser or directly on the skin. 3. Tarot Cards : The best thing about your first tarot card deck is that it's supposed to be received, not bought for oneself. Give your spiritual recipient a new way to communicate with the universe! For The One In The Kitchen... 1. Oven Mitt : Perfect for baking and cooking, add a little spice with a lovely embroidered design and bright colors. 2. Apron : If you're in the kitchen, an apron is essential! Go for a more delicate pattern or search the wide selection of aprons on Amazon customized with patterns of their favorite food. 3. Foodie Pillow : Get them a pillow of their favorite food so that they can continue to appreciate it, even outside the kitchen! 4. Tea/Dish Towel : Help them keep things clean the cute way! For The Old Soul... 1. Bookmark : When you love to read, you're bound to need something to mark your spot. With a high quality bookmark, especially leather varieties, they can use it for years to come and in countless books along the way.
2. Disposable Film Camera : Take pictures the old-fashioned way with a disposable film camera. Plus, it will give your recipient something to look forward to when they get their photos developed! 3. Vinyl Record : Listen to music the classic way with a vinyl for their record player. The best part is that this gift can apply to any music taste or favorite artist. Shoutout to Wuxtry Records in Athens again for their wide collection from past decades! Thank you for reading & Happy Holidays! *pictures featured are not mine*
