For the holidays sometimes people give one thoughtful gift for an entire family, as opposed to, individual gifts to each family member. I like the fewer, curated gift idea. People shouldn't go broke, or allow materialism to hijack the true meaning of Christmas, Hanukkah (or Festivus for that matter. Hey, to each, his own:)! Giving friends and family hospitality, treats and time together is what they remember the most.
If you desire and can afford to throw in one gift also, here are 5 gift ideas, perhaps items a family might not think to buy for themselves, yet will love receiving:
1) Wall Heights Ruler (see above↑) - Parents can record the heights of growing children without marking up a wall or doorway with magic markers. And parents can save the ruler without ever having to paint over the height markings (here's a pricey oak ruler version). Ideal for new parents.
2) Murder Mystery Party - A house party activity ... it's a spirited game as an alternative to the usual playing card games.
3) Corkcicle Classic Wine Chiller Cork - The cold ice in the middle keeps a bottle of wine chilled until the last glass. Ideal for wine and cheese evenings at home.
4) Crep Protect Eraser Cleaner - The eraser removes spots from suede and nubuck on leather shoes, jackets and coats. I'll take a practical gift over a glitzy useless one any ole day. It's unlikely your friends will already have a leather spot remover and will love the eraser once you introduce them to it!
5) Personalized Family Mugs - Mugs start as low as $1.70 each unpersonalized. A company with good customer reviews who personalize mugs with a name or logo for about $6 per mug. You can select the size, style, quantity and how to personalize the mugs. Ideal for families with children (who will be thrilled to see their names on the mugs); or people who simply need uniform coffee and tea mugs.
As you can see holiday gifts need not break the bank, these 5 family gifts will please, as well as, suit every budget. Which is your favorite?

Dearest Debbie,
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of gifts for a family in the form of sweets or treats for the special Christmas season to share and enjoy together.
Hugs,
Mariette
Thanks for chiming me, Mariette! I did link that suggestion below, didn't I. I still think it's such a thoughtful gift when you know a household entertains lots of guests during the holiday season.

DeleteWhat a wonderful collection of specialty items with a truly special twist. I took your advice a while ago and ordered Beauty Advent Calendars for two of my very special friends, one who never takes the time to do anything nice for herself and the other who is recovering from major surgery. I went for the l'Occitane calendar. You have to jump on those early.
ReplyDeleteYou may remember that, following the suggestion of one of my readers who fell in love w/my Miss Kiri Kat, I had a mug made w/three of my favorite pictures of her and have been giving them to friends and fans -- she has a lot of fans. She's not just a pretty face, she's loaded w/personality and charm.
I definitely love the idea of the eraser for myself.
Thank you so much for all your great tips over the years.
Cheers, M-T
