Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique.

$1- Solar Powered Dancers! 
My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift.

$2- Mini Coloring Book! 
At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend!

$3- Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree 
I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic Christmas" decor, this is a really nice gift! I kind of want to get one for my sister because she drove a Bronco. These come and go from my Target, but there are a lot in right now... so I have a feeling they will be there for a while!

$4-Beaded Headwrap 
I really like getting head wraps as Christmas gifts, I think they look cute in the winter and they keep you warm. These ones are from five below and they look really nice. To be fair... I just looked it up on 5 Below's website to see what they had for $4... but I do really like headwraps and I thought these ones looked nice!

$5- Be Inspired Journal from Picadilly 
I love this! This is on the bargain book shelves at Barnes and Noble. It's a gorgeous notebook and it has inspirational quotes and little writing prompts that you can fill out based on them like "The hardest thing to see is what is in front of your eyes" by Johan Wolfgang von Goethe and then the prompt says "Write about something in your life right now in a new perspective and with fresh eyes"... so that's one example. It's 5.38 at Barnes and Noble... but still. Pretty cool in my opinion and definitely worth it!

$6- Hand Sanitizers! 
Bath and Body works Hand Sanitizers are really great! They are always $6 for 5 hand sanitizer... so you can get a bunch of different ones to throw in a few stockings or one for someone to keep in their bag, car, office... various places lol. It's just a good gift for $6!

$7- Wallflower Refill 
If you know anyone that loves home fragrance, a Wallflower would be a great gift to give! I'm a little scared of lighting candles... but I always have a wallflower burning in my room and I love it! I love the pumpkin ones. I just got Gingerbread and Salted Caramel... they're all really good. You can get a plug for around this price too.

$8- Poo Pourri- 
I'm cheating a bit on this because really its 9.99 but you can use Bed Bath and Beyond coupons to make it cheaper... lol. This stuff really works... that's all I'm going to say. I think I'm getting this as a part of my friends gifts because its funny... but I know they'll like it too. It's a good stocking stuffer!

$9- Fur Real Friends The Luvimals-
This is a really fun kid gift idea. We actually got one of these today at Target for a Salvation Army Angel Tree that they have hanging up at our dentists office. They have little versions of the Fur Real Friends animals, and they are all really cute and make cute noises when you pet them. We got the little girl a dog one because the dog had a really cute bark. They have all kinds of animals to choose from... I think these are even cuter than the full sized Fur Real Friends and for 8.99 its a really nice toy.

$10- Funko Pops- 
I'm a fan of Funko Pops! I used to collect them quite a bit... but I sort of ran out of room and it isn't the cheapest and most practical hobby... so I sort of just lost interest... but its still a fun gift to give and you can cater it to that person's interest. If they like Minions or Harry Potter or Disney or anything really... they have a little bit of everything! It's a fun nerdy gift for kids or for adults.

$11- Starbucks Anniversary Scales Mug- 
This is 11.01 on sale on the Starbucks website right now... it might be out of stock, but I've still seen it in a few stores! I actually have one myself and it's really pretty. It's white with gold detailing on it and I really like it. You can't really put it in the dishwasher... but its still a good mug and pretty to look at!


$12 - Tree Ornament Set from Target
Again... I kinda looked for Ornaments in the specific price set, I don't actually have these... but they do resemble things that are on my tree and these are something I would buy. They have Marvel, Disney and Star Wars... so if you have a friend that's into any of those specific things, or a friend with kids that like those things... they might like these ornaments. I think because its a set its a cute gift. We have a lot of Disney ornaments on our tree... so this would be cute to add to it... we have a lot of ornaments already though... but yeah. I think these are cute and fun and something I'd pick up if we had the tree space and more of the ball ornaments.

So there is my affordable christmas gift guide! Hope you found this useful or fun! I had a lot of fun writing this! If you know a beauty addict, be sure to check out my gift guide on Scribbles About Beauty!

Byeee!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...
