Instead of curating a color-coordinated lifestyle-blogger-esque gift guide this year, I put together the actual items I have saved in a note on my phone in my “wants” list. Brandon and I don’t really shop for each other preferring to select the things we want or need during the year as our budget allows. But maybe these will give you ideas! I got so many messages from Mom’s saying their husbands/parents/grandparents want to buy them actual gifts and they struggle with what to say. These 15 items might help in that department.

- A guillotine style papercutter. Art teacher and crafter’s dream amiright?! 2. A Carolyn Gavin square sketchbook and some gouache paint. Swoon. Had my eye on these for so long! 3. A cinch top bucket bag – trying to use more non diaper bag purses these days, ha! 4. Another perma-bracelet to add to my wrist. All My Heart Jewelry is owned and operated by the sweetest Mama ever. 5. Keyboard-apple pencil case for my ipad pro. 6. A powerful dustbuster… I know, so lame. 7. Rothy’s!! These shoes would be a splurge for me (a big one) but I’ve heard they are beyond worth it. 8. A cordless glue gun! This one works with my husbands power tools battery which is amazing but if you need the battery you can find it here. 9. A fringe supply co bag… another item I’ve had my eye on for so long. Such a nice gift for a knitter or crocheter! 10. Muffin top baking pans. Self explanatory right?! You could pair this with some fun muffin mixes from William Sanoma or with a baking cookbook! 11. An oil pourer… we need one! 12. These lip balms. They’re my favorite but mine were sacrificed inside the lost makeup back of 2018. Need to replace! 13. A beautiful weekender! This one doesn’t break the bank as far as bags go. 14. Gina Homulskas new book and the Paper Copy of Cardboard Creations (I have the ebook and it’s just wonderful). 15. It wouldn’t be my gift list if it didn’t have something Harry Potter on it right? This Swell bottle gives me all the Hogwarts feels.
Merry (early) Christmas shopping, folks!
