Paging DebMaher

Queen of all things LIW, do you make suggestions for what to buy our Secret Santas too? I have been wracking my brain and cannot come up with the perfect gift!

Re: Paging DebMaher

I can tell you what I would do:
-Picture frames. Can do easily a nice 4*5 silver plate at TJ Maxx for <20$
-In general look around TJMaxx or Marshalls -- they always have cute stuff on clearance
-Candles -- always a winner.
-Seeds and a planter; look for a sale
-Nice houseplant
-Cute kitchen dishtowel and potholders set
-Nice teakettle or coffee if they have a preference
-Gourmet coffee beans from Porto Rico - yum
-Anything chocolate!
-Scarf or mittens
-A cool mug
-Two guest passes to a movie (date for Recipient and FI!)
-Scented soap at Bath and Body works
-Gift certificate for a manicure
-$20 donation to a great cause like American Cancer Society
-A box of pretty cards and envelopes to keep around the house for impromptu thank yous that come up during the year
-Pretty barrettes
-Philosophy sells this amazing all in one (shampoo, conditioner, body wash) for $16.50-you can get online and it is something noone ever treats themself to but is super indulgent.
-A pretty handheld mirror for a bathroom.
-Eyelash curler at sephora or gift certificate to sephora
-Makeup brushes from Target -- Sonya Kashuk sells cheap sets
-I forget what it is called but it is this amazing rose petal lip gloss for $6 a tube - I get at Bigelow and it is KILLER for chapped lips.
-Fluffy fun socks for winter, or one good pair of cashmere socks
-Fluffy slippers for the house
I have other ideas but this should get your juices flowing, Daniela....
