Little Gifts for Everyone

Anybody got any creative ideas for little christmas gifts that you can get everyone (mostly sisters). I'm not talking about big gifts for like your big and best buds, but little gifts that I can get all the girls for under 15 a gift?

I like to go to the toy section of Meijer's and just buy a bunch of random toys--from play doh to bubbles to suction cup dart guns. They always seem to go over really well because everyone loves toys, and they're usually $5 and under

This is what we're doing for the kids at work. Just getting them little stockings with boucy balls, candy canes and bubbles in them. Buying for 20 at a time can really add up.

Pier 1 or Crate and Barrel or Target may have votive candles and holders, picture frames. And Walmart should have vases and glass containers and things if you are crafty. There is always cheapy cure jewelry from Claires. Or books or CDS or gift certificates. A Chia pet or head, or magazine subscription or lottery scratch it tickets. A bottle of wine. Check out dollar stores too, sometimes there are cute stuff there. Starbucks coffee gifts or candy gifts. Movie tix or old second-run videos you can pick up at Blockbuster.

Hope this helps a little!!

Merry Christmas.
Rhonda

pez dispensers... i always thought those were cute and they are like a buck each around here.

decorative, homemade xmas cards.

get some old fashioned clothespins, paint them brown, put red noses on them and you have some reindeer.

... a round of shots?

Some ideas:

1) Buy cheap candles and glue ribbon in your colors around them.

2) Inexpensive picture frames with your letters puffy painted on them (or, if your handwriting leaves something to be desired, you can buy alphabet stickers and use those).

3) Chocolate covered pretzel rods (melt chocolate chips, dip pretzels in and sprinkle on sprinkles in your colors)

4) Glass candy jars w/ letters puffy painted on and filled with candy (inexpensive at craft stores).

I can come up with more if I'm forced to think, but there are a few. Hope they help.
