GIFT GUIDE | FUN AND PRACTICAL STOCKING STUFFERS + SMALL GIFTS UNDER $15

HAPPY WEDNESDAY, BLOGLAND!

THE SEASON OF GIVING IS ALMOST HERE AND MY GIFT GUIDES CONTINUE.

I KNOW THIS TIME OF YEAR MEANS GIFT GIVING, BUT THE BEST PART OF CHRISTMAS TO ME HAS ALWAYS BEEN BEING WITH MY FAMILY, FUN COCKTAIL TIME AND ENDLESS EATING THAT CONSISTS OF A LOT OF CHEESE, OUR FAVORITE!

HOWEVER, WHAT YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW IS THAT THE LITTLE GIFTS SANTA LEAVES INSIDE OUR STOCKINGS IS ACTUALLY MY FAVORITE PART OF CHRISTMAS MORNING.

This has been so for me since I was little, so, this year I wanted to include some affordable stocking stuffer ideas in my gift guide POSTS.

Each also makes a cute addition to a bigger gift or the perfect small hostess, secret santa or white elephant game gift FOR under $15!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO EVERYONE IN THE US AND HAVE FUN SHOPPING BLACK FRIDAY SALES IN STORE, FOR THOSE DARING ENOUGH, AND ONLINE! ❤
