Lovely Gifts Ideas + A GINORMOUS Giveaway!

Hi there! I’ve been hinting all week that I’ve got something super fun to tell you about today- and here it is! I’ve teamed up with dozens of other bloggers to bring you gift guides of EVERY type: think home chefs, woodworkers, gifts for men, the works!- AND, we’re each hosting a giveaway worth at least $50, bringing our readers the chance to win almost $4000 in prizes!

ultimate shoppers guide under 100 dollars

I am sharing with you gifts under $100- and I’ve rounded up some lovely things from all over the web. I’m featuring a little something for everyone. I realize that $100 isn’t necessarily an inexpensive gift, but sometimes it’s nice to give one very nice gift rather than a bunch of things that don’t get used.

1.) Kindle 

kindle

A Kindle is a gift I almost always include in gift guides. It’s just so versatile and I’ve loved mine from the moment I got it. I keep it with me at all times so when I’m stuck in line somewhere or waiting in a doctor’s office so I can read instead of mindlessly scrolling my phone. (Click here for books I recommend) The Kindles start at around $80 and are worth every penny.  (Hint: there are TONS of free books for Kindle)

 

 

 

Cable-Knit-Throw

I’m loving this Gorgeous Cable knit throw + ($55.99) from Wayfair. Imagine wrapping yourself in the most comfortable sweater, and that’s what this blanket looks like. I’d love using this while sitting around the next gift..

copper fire pit

 

 

 

A Fire Pit– this copper-toned version comes in at $102 but I figured the extra $2 was worth it for this gorgeous fire pit. I love sitting around a fire in the winter and ours just happened to bite the dust this year. 😉

 

instax

 

As someone who hasn’t printed out pictures in well, a very long time, I love the idea of this Fuji Instax Camera. (My almost-5-year old asked me why I only had pictures of her on the computer. Oops.) The camera comes in fun colors and you should definitely include plenty of film if you choose to gift this.

leather bag

 

 

 

 

Sparkly Leather Bag

I have become a believer in real leather bags lately. They just hold up so well- and I really like this one from Target that combines leather + sparkle! Click here to find it.

men's bag

 

Men’s Leather Laptop Bag

If the man in your life needs a new laptop bag or brief case, I’m really a fan of this leather bag. It’s really classy and again, as real leather, should hold up well. Find it here.

 

measuring cups

For the person who loves to cook, I’m sure they would love a gift from the gorgeous new Pioneer Woman Collection. I mean, I know I just would love anything from this line! (hint hint 😉 ) It’s like PW and I have the exact same taste in color and home decor- these gorgeous pieces could certainly function as decor. Click here to shop the collection.

 

 

 

FRENCH-ACCENTS-COVER_1024x1024

Speaking of home decor, anyone who is interested in home decor would love a copy of my friend Anita’s new book, French Accents. I reviewed her book here. It’s simply gorgeous and she’s also offering one of the books as part of my giveaway!

    Favorite gift by far was a photo album my Gram put together for me a few years prior to her passing. We had a falling out shortly after, the sad end to my first marriage.Gram believed I was being far to easy and trusting with my ex. Sadly,she proved to be right. Thousands of savings dollars and buckets of tears in a very personal battle to keep me from my babies.Resulting in slot of back and forth travel for myself and my 3young daughters. Upon reaching out to my Gram, which she welcomed,I believe we both wanted to catch up. Neither of us knew, but, both of us put together photo albums for the other. Mine was a sequential catching up of my girls childhood,as well as my marriage to my now husband was of 23years.Hers was a genealogical sequence of myself and all of our past relatives. Miss her so very much, but the photos remind me of how much of her lives on within myself.
