Gift Ideas

It's the holiday season!  I love shopping, so I enjoy this time of year.  It's a little stressful because I really try to pick out gifts I think the person will like & sometimes I draw a blank.  Here are a few things I've come across that I think would be wonderful gifts.

Echo Touch Gloves

Most people have touch phones/devices these days.  I hate pulling my gloves off to use my phone & these have special fabric on the fingertips that allow you to use your device.  Plus, they're cute!  They come in a lot of great colors, but I think the mint is especially cute.

Thermos Stainless Steel Tumbler

A co-worker has one of these & he attests to its ability to keep his coffee hot for a ridiculously long time.

Hot Chocolate & Marshmallows

Williams Sonoma does it right.  Yum.

Birchbox
Perfect for any woman who likes beauty products.  You can buy a subscription for someone for a few months.  They'll get 4-5 samples a month.  I've been subscribed to Birchbox for over a year now & I love it.  You get points for reviewing the products & then you can use your points to get a discount on full sized items on their website.  If they decide to keep the service going, it's only $10 a month.  But if not, they got some fun goodies for a few months.  Win win!

Fitbit One or Fitbit Zip

I have a Fitbit One & it tracks your steps, flights of stairs, mileage, calories burned & even sleep.  I really like it & it pushes me to be more active.  It's amazing how often I don't reach 10,000 steps a day (the recommended amount) & I think I'm a decently active person.  I've heard the Fitbit Zip is good, too & is a little less expensive than the One.  This would be a great gift for a fitness buff or someone wanting to get in shape.

What's on my wish list?  Well, I can't help but want the gloves & coffee tumbler for myself (but I promise, I came across these originally as ideas for others!)  I'm also swooning over the new Urban Decay Naked Palette 3.  Such pretty colors!

Also, this is totally weird but I came across this sweatshirt in the Dick's Sporting Goods mailer & crack up every time I think about it.

They only have it in boys sizes & it's a completely obnoxious color but I swear I can see myself wearing it.  I figure I need to assert myself with a house full of boys & remind them that if mama's not happy, no one's happy.  There have been days when I've felt like the Hulk with his anger management issues.  Ha!!

Happy Holidays!
