10 Holiday Gifts All Under $20!

Forgive me for not getting this post up sooner, but blogging took a back seat to my Christmas cards this week! So much to do, so little time. Anyway, I'd like to share with you some of my top picks for Holiday gifts, and the best part is that all of these items are under $20. I thought this might stir up an idea or two for those of us who love to give, but need to watch what we spend! Read on for my top 10 gifts under $20.

Anthropologie's Voluspa candle. They have several scents to choose from, but my absolute favorite is the Santiago Huckleberry. I could stand around with this to my nose literally all day and never get sick of it. Love this three wick candle, and at $18 it makes the perfect gift under $20.
 
 
 

Tinyprints' customized notepad. The one I found below is just $16.99. What girl doesn't love personalized stationary??
 
 

 
Ballard Designs' jute tote. I've purchased several of these to give as gifts and I must say they're excellent quality for the money. Did I mention you can monogram them for FREE?! The one below is their medium sized tote and is $20.
 
 
 
 
Crate and Barrel's holiday themed dishtowels. I would give the three you see below, but they have other designs to choose from if these aren't your cup of tea. Whichever one you select it'll dress up the kitchen for the holidays while keeping the place looking tidy. These go for around $4.95 a piece.
 
 



 
Target's Nate Berkus 5 x 7 picture frame. This goes for $14.99 online and would be a good gift to give a great friend. Place a picture of the two of you in the frame to make it an even better gift. ;)
Home Depot's Rosemary Tree. If headed to a holiday party this year the Rosemary tree would be such a cute hostess gift in lieu of a Poinsettia. Don't get me wrong, I love Poinsettias, but this tree is so fragrant and fills the room with such a sweet scent. Plus you can decorate it like a mini Christmas tree! I purchased one for my mother last year from Kroger's floral department (yes, I got it at my grocery store) and she loved it so much she went out and bought another one for her home this year. The one you see below looks similar to the one she picked up at Home Depot... I couldn't find a link to it online, but she says they're there. My mother bought her tree for around $15.
 
 

 
Nordstrom's Guinevere 'Clan' Stretch ring. This has been marked down by 50%, was $38 and is now $18.98. It's a good deal for that special someone who loves a little glam!

 
 
 
Tervis team tumblers. These are a favorite of mine and something tells me the sports fanatic in your life would find them favorable too, especially if said cup is displaying their favorite team's logo. Why do I love the Tervis tumbler?? Well, if you're drinking coffee in a Tervis, it stays warm and if you're drinking something with ice then remarkably your drink stays cold. It's the best insulated glass on the market and you can buy lids in coordinating colors too. The one you see below is their 10 oz size and goes for around $16. Go Braves! :)
 
 
Bath and Body Works' foaming hand soap. You can buy 6 for $20 and they have some really great holiday scents available right now. It's funny, I haven't really shopped at B&BW since I was in middle school, but not too long ago I received some of this foaming hand soap from a friend and I've been hooked ever since.
 
 
West Elm's colorful throws. They're on sale for $19 right now, plus they ship for free if you purchase online. They're a regular $29 so I would call this a great deal, but better hurry because they're advertising that this sale is a temporary one. I can never have enough throws and I have my eye on the bright yellow one. It would add a nice pop of color to my living room! :)
 


Happy shopping and happy holidays!!
