​Birthdays, holidays, anniversaries....gift shopping throughout the year can sometimes leave me walking through a store feeling completely clueless on what to get my loved ones! When I'm purchasing a gift, I always want it to be perfect, but I find myself running out of creative ideas! I mean, how many pairs of Christmas socks and scarves can you give someone before they catch on that you have no idea what to give them? This year, I’ve done some research for you (and me!!) so we can find the perfect Christmas gift for everyone on our list.

Check out what I’ve come up with:

Gifts UNDER $30

If you've never worn our earrings before, you'll find that they are so lightweight and comfortable. You seriously forget you are wearing them! Give the gift of comfort to the girls on your list! You can dress our earrings up or down and they still look fabulous.

More Gifts for the Kitchen*

If you're buying for anyone who likes to eat (and who doesn't?!), then you should consider these time savers for the kitchen. This Ninja Chopper is amazing and will save time in the kitchen year round. It can speed up chopping with just one press of a button. The best part? These blades last FOREVER. Don't worry about needing to sharpen these anytime soon because they are as sharp as a.. well... Ninja!

If you're buying for someone who doesn't already own a crock pot then STOP. RIGHT. THERE. Crock Pots aren't just for holiday parties! They are lifesavers after a long day. Throw dinner in the Crock Pot in the morning and by dinner time it has done all the dirty work. My favorite treat to make is cheese dip!  Add a block of Velveeta, cream cheese, and a can of Rotel! Viola! Don't forget to pick up the liners for an even easier clean up! These are my faves..especially when I make my famous cheese dip. Let's be honest...cheese dip is about ALL I know how to make. :)

For the Home* 

Know someone who is sign obsessed? Felt letter boards are a fun gift to give those who love to decorate their space. Personalize the board to say something quirky or to leave little love notes. On a desk or in a home...your loved one will love this gift! It's like the gift that keeps on giving! 

This cake stand is beautiful and can hold lots of pretty treats. Nobody would want to hide this away, but rather, put it on display! You
 can even get creative with what you place in it for various occasions. Ornaments, candy hearts with cupcakes on too, leaves....the list goes on!

Bonus Tip bake them a delicious Christmas treat and wrap it in this!

Needing some LAST MINUTE gift help? This is AWESOME, Target! 

Target has you covered with their GiftNow online option. You can choose a gift to send directly to the recipient's email where they will get to "unwrap" it from you. They get to choose the extra options like color or size, and then it ships right to them! They even get to pick their size or the color they like best! WHAT?! Is this real life? ...and that's not all....Do you want to know the best part?! If the recipient of your gift wants to exchange it for something else they've been eyeing....they can! Target has COMPLETELY taken the guesswork and pressure off of you and you are CERTAIN your gift will be something everyone will truly love!  

Check out how it works below. While you're at it, check out some of my faves from Target....booties, makeup, and that messenger bag!! SO stinking cute!

What type of Gift Giver are you?

1. Operation Overachiever 

Overachievers are those gift givers we all aspire to be. These are the over prepared, shop throughout the year type of givers. Without a doubt they pick out the perfect gift and have it wrapped and ready to go well before Santa himself starts packing his sleigh. 










2. Gift Card Center Shopper

These are the givers who love getting their holiday shopping done in about 15 minutes...all while standing at the local Gift Card Mall. There is no shame in the Gift Card game. I mean, I'm pretty sure no one is complaining about that $25 Target card anyway, right?




3. Christmas Eve Shopper

Where are my fellow procrastinators? Yes, there are people who completely push off holiday shopping until the very last minute. I'm not sure if it gives me more anxiety knowing I have to come up with a gift idea better than fuzzy socks, or the fact that I have procrastinated so much that even Target two day shipping can't save me!! Of course, a well-seasoned Christmas Eve shopper would justify it with same day pickup. 




4. Sales Addict 

The shopper that buys that extra decorative pillow to receive "free shipping" because...well, why pay for shipping when you can put that money towards a fuzzy cable knit sweater pillow?! Hello? It's perfect. Take my money. Free $10 gift card if I spend another $40? Merry Christmas to me? I think so! This type of shopper might also be seen on Black Friday drinking their fourth cup of coffee while securing their spot in line for that special "First 100 Customers" coupon. 





5. The List Shopper

This shopper is the one who makes a list and checks it twice. They carefully make a plan of attack for each store. They think they always stick to the list, but they can't resist adding a few extra gifts. 



​SO, which shopper are you? Can you guess which I am?
