Happy Monday! There are only 16 days until Christmas....as if you needed a reminder!

I personally have the most fun shopping for stocking stuffers and trying to find little surprises that I know my family will both love and use. I mean, you can't go wrong with nail polish, notebooks or coffee mugs. I've rounded up a few of my favorite stuffers and so not break the bank, all these little gifts are under $25. Happy shopping!


PS- You might be thinking to yourself 25 gifts under $25 would make more sense than 24. Well, you're right. I agree. But I forgot to include this gift on the collage so 24 it is :)

holiday gift guide 2014: gifts for the hostess

Gift guide season is upon us!

This season I’m going to focus on some harder to buy gifts and assume that you know your family or significant other far better than I do and don’t need the help. However, if you do still need some inspiration, hop on over to the holiday shop tab later this week. I’ll be updating the page with some gift inspiration for you as well as sale alerts. I hope you find it helpful!

FIRST UP-- A GUIDE FOR THE HOSTESS 

It’s not even the end of November and your December calendar is probably almost nearly full. Ammiright or ammiright? You probably have an engagement every weekend and slowly but surely your weeknights are filling up as well. 'Tis the season! Are you planning on hosting any of those little soirees? If so, you know that it’s not easy. It’s not rocket science hard, but being the hostess means you don’t get to just show up…like all your friends do. Practice some empathy this season and don’t arrive empty handed. It doesn’t have to be much but the holiday cheer goes a long way when you show up with some chocolate, a small gift or champagne (my personal favorite, duh). Consider sending some flowers via UrbanStem if you can’t quite get it together to bring something the night of.  Flowers, wine or cheese go a long way my friends.

• 1 | champagne or champagne glasses
• 2 | candle
• 3 | slate cheese board
• 4 | decanter
• 5 | caramels or peppermint bark for dessert
• 6 | a serving tray
• 7 | olive oil and pourer
• 8 | flowers
• 9 | coffee mug and peppermint chocolate stirrers

Now is probably as good of a time as any to remind you that, as noted on my contact page, this blog may contain affiliate links. That means that from time to time I share links here that may result in me earning a commission from purchases made through that click/link. I hope you know me well enough to know that I would never share something with you just to earn commission. That just ain’t my style. Any commission earned is just an added bonus to blogging since this isn’t my full time job.
