Gift giving is one of my love languages. I think it’s so nice during the holidays to give a little something special to let someone know you’re thinking of them. But there’s no reason to shell out big bucks to spread a little bit of holiday cheer. Our Under $50 Gift Guide is full of wonderful gifts for everyone on your list. Because after all, it’s not about the price of the gift – it’s about the thoughtfulness behind it!
Little luxuries are an easy gifting strategy. How about the perfect shade of red in this Chanel lipstick? Or Charlotte Tilbury’s award-winning Pillow Talk lip set? I love a rich, nice-smelling hand cream and L’Occitane’s set of three means you can stash them all around! Crown Affair’s tortoise comb is a cult-favorite for a reason, and it’ll look good just sitting on your vanity.
Etsy is a great place to dig around for unique gifts, and I love these linen monogrammed hand towels. They would be great for your favorite hostess! The same goes for these colorful resin coasters by Gaetano Pesce, perfect for sprucing up happy hour! It’s easy to give a stylish tableware upgrade, like these beautiful wood salad servers with leather handles from Amber Interiors, these canapé knives for a cheese board, or a festive set of red-striped linen napkins.
And speaking of cheese boards, there are so many cute little ones that make for a party of one or two people. I love this vintage-inspired Chateau board from Williams-Sonoma, and this beveled wood-and-marble one from them also. from Uncommon Goods is another unique gift that would make any snacker happy.
There’s no going wrong with a well-scented gift, like this Japanese Quince candle or this package of Vyrao incense.
