Who doesn\u2019t love giving or receiving a gift during the holidays? I live for the look on someone\u2019s face when they receive a gift that I put a lot of thought into. It makes me feel happy when I know I\u2019ve gotten it right. But what do you do when you need a gift for someone who already has everything, or you\u2019re low on funds? Here are a few unique gift ideas to give to those you care about without breaking the bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Relaxation Basket\u00a0for Her\u00a0\u2013<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Most of us could use a little\u00a0more\u00a0relaxation\u00a0in our lives. Give\u00a0the special women in your life\u00a0the motivation to do so with\u00a0their\u00a0favorite essential\u00a0oil infused body butter, bath bombs, candles, body spray,\u00a0and wine.\u00a0Check\u00a0your local and online\u00a0sales\u00a0as we get closer\u00a0to the holidays and make a list of several people who may enjoy\u00a0this. Take advantage of\u00a0steep discounts, bulk purchases, and\u00a0BOGO deals, and make multiple gifts out of your purchase. You may also be able to find a good deal at your local winery when buying multiple bottles.\u00a0Add in a gift certificate for a massage for an extra treat! When choosing a basket, pick something that is practical and re-usable. Your basket may become\u00a0a beautiful\u00a0storage\u00a0piece\u00a0later.\u00a0It\u2019s like two gifts in one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Snow Day Baking Kit-\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s face it, when the weather outside is frightful, we crave treats that are delightful.\u00a0So how about\u00a0making a snow day emergency treat basket?\u00a0Around the holidays it\u2019s easy to find baking mixes, and\u00a0all kinds of additional treats\u00a0on sale. Find a fun recipe for cookies, buy the ingredients (minus anything perishable), and add a few packs of tea, cider, or hot chocolate to complete the snack.\u00a0Don\u2019t forget to write the recipe details on a flash card.\u00a0You may even\u00a0throw in a few utensils like a spatula, measuring\u00a0cup, or wooden spoon,\u00a0because who doesn\u2019t need plenty of those. Check your local retail store for deals on mixing bowls,\u00a0to use in lieu of a basket to pack it all in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Relaxation Basket for Him-<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We rarely think of men needing relaxation time, but they need it just as much as women. Give your favorite\u00a0guy\u00a0the option to do so this holiday season. Epsom\u00a0salt, fresh razors, shaving cream, after shave, and a\u00a0great\u00a0moisturizer would go perfect with this gift.\u00a0You\u00a0may also\u00a0want\u00a0to add in a deep moisturizing hand cream for those that work\u00a0a lot with their hands. You can find deals on great razors online or at your local drugstore. When it comes to the shaving cream you may want to make sure it isn\u2019t too strong and is hypo allergenic. Sometimes you can find these in bulk as well,\u00a0so you can\u00a0buy multiple and make\u00a0several\u00a0baskets\u00a0at once. If you have stayed within budget,\u00a0add a small gift card to their favorite hardware store,\u00a0or better yet, a massage gift card.\u00a0For this \u201cbasket\u201d, you can\u00a0use a travel case, or something that can be reused\u00a0and doesn\u2019t just take up space,\u00a0like a small tool box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the Chef-<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For those in your life that love to cook, gift them a basket with their favorite ingredients. Throw in a mixture a spices, sauces, dried herbs, and marinades. You can get some of their favorite seasonings and then add a few they can experiment with and a small cookbook. You may also include a timer, meat thermometer, marinade brush, injector, or any other small utensil that may come in handy in the kitchen or at the grill. You can find great prices on spices in the bulk area of your super market. You may also want to check your local farmers market for locally sourced and homemade sauces. They\u2019re usually super tasty and reasonably priced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You don\u2019t have to break the bank to spread joy to those on your list this season. Sometimes the most thoughtful gifts take us to our happiest moments with their simplicity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
