I’m so excited to share my 2017 Gift Guide with you which is a collection of Gifts for Her all under $50. My gift recommendations are things that I have bought for myself or for a gift for someone I love. In other words these are a few of my favorite things that I don’t hesitate to tell you about to help you with your gift purchases this year. You may even find a treat or two to buy for yourself. That’s okay too 🙂
I absolutely love buying gifts for others. I love the challenge of finding the perfect thing and then I love telling others about my great finds. So now I’m telling you. The links I’ve used are Amazon.com affiliate links (I will make a small commission should you choose to purchase through my links) but for my Canadian readers don’t you worry almost all of these items are also available on Amazon.ca as that is where I purchased them from myself. Just remember prices are always higher in Canada unfortunately 🙁
Amazon is such a big online place that it can take a long time scrolling through pages and pages of products to find just the perfect gift. Well hopefully I’ll save you a bit of time here. I’ve spent many hours curating this list for you, reading reviews, ordering and returning products. I’m a very picky girl. Crappy products annoy me, these products do not. They are not crappy. They are awesome!
Enjoy my 2017 gift guide and happy shopping my friends!
My 2017 Gift Guide – Gifts for Her Under $50
1) Faux Leather Backpack
This backpack is absolutely stunning. Such amazing quality for this price point. It’s made of patent faux leather with pretty gold-tone zipper pulls. It’s a nice size with plenty of pockets to keep your organized and it even comes with a duster bag. Also comes in other colors.
2) Bottom Dispensing Teapot
Okay how annoying & frustrating is it to use those small little loose tea contraptions to make a cup of tea only to have them not seal properly and get tea leafs in your cup? I know I hate it too. Plus they are a pain to clean out each time. Ain’t nobody got time for that! This tea infuser releases one cup of tea directly into your cup and clean up is a breeze. I’ve had mine for quite a few years now, seriously it’s the best! Combine this gift with some delicious tea and a pretty tea cup and you have yourself one gorgeous gift!
3) Heated Throw
I’ve had my heated throw now for a couple of years and use it every single night to take the chill off. It’s one of my favorite things! It’s not as big as a blanket which I like because it’s easy to drag it around the house with me. I’m always cold so this keeps me all warm and cozy. Seriously what’s not to love about being warm? Yep everyone needs one! In fact my 12 year old loves mine so much that I got him one for Christmas so I don’t have to share mine anymore, whoot!
4) Painless Earbuds
I don’t know if it’s just me but earbuds always hurt my ears. I can never wear them for long because of the pain. Annoying! I got these Yurbuds many years ago and they are the most comfortable pair of earbuds that do not hurt my ears. They stay put too, even while exercising. I’ve had no problems with them at all and think that everyone should know about them. So great!
5) Warm Cozy Socks
So right up there with a nice heated throw for comfort are cozy cupcake socks. Yes these socks are cozy and delightful but they are also adorable because they package up into adorable cupcakes. I mean, come on! Great as a gift on it’s own (maybe package them up with a nice foot lotion) or as a super fun stocking stuffer. They are sold in a set of two, one for you and one for someone else 🙂
6) RFID Zippered Wallet
Most everyone has a wallet but is it going to protect you against those sneaky crooks out to steal your hard earned moola? This lovely RFID blocking technology wallet will. It comes in a gift box perfect for easy gifting and it also has pretty gold hardware and a removable wrist strap. Available in red, black and blue.
7) Mason Jar Warmer
This is the one product I haven’t personally tried because the price for us Canadians was ridiculously high. Over $100 in Canada but under $20 in the US, umm what? Look how adorable this wax warmer light is, I love it so much. How cute would it be sitting on your kitchen counter smelling your home up beautifully? And a great gift at a great price too! If you live in the US that is. Bummer for me though.
8) Earring Organizer
I love earrings and am constantly switching out the pair I wear on any given day. Usually they end up jumbled up in a dish I keep on top of my dresser but then I found this super clever earring organizer that keeps your earrings organized in book format. Saves so much time trying to find the pair you need in the morning. The holes on the opposite pages are offset so they don’t hit each other and you can store up to 42 pairs. So smart! Available in black, pink and white.
9) Christmas Music
Okay I’m not sure I’ve ever confessed this on the blog but I have a wee obsession with Christmas music. Here’s my collection:
Yep totally addicted. And totally old school I guess because I still enjoy owning the CD’s. They make me happy and I believe they make a most excellent gift. My latest favorite that just came out this year is Lindsey Stirling’s Warmer in the Winter. It’s so good and festive!
She’s an amazing violin player and she has some guest singers join her on the CD so it’s not entirely instrumental. It’s beautiful and lovely and a nice addition to a holiday party playing in the background. I heard about Lindsey because she was a contestant on Dancing With the Stars this year (another obsession of mine). She came second but only because she was up against Jordan Fisher who I knew was going to win from the very first show. Great season!
Oh and if you are interested, my ALL-TIME favorite Christmas CD is Johnny Reid’s A Christmas Gift to You CD. Oh my!
10) Snowflake Necklace
If you know someone who loves snow then this is the perfect gift for them. Actually I don’t love snow that much but I do love my snowflake necklace A LOT. I got one for myself and then immediately turned around and ordered another one for someone special in my life. This necklace is gorgeous!
The price is AMAZING and yet it doesn’t look or feel cheap at all. It comes beautifully packaged in a nice gift box as well. Can’t say enough about this stunner, such a sweet dainty gift!
11) Reusable Makeup Cloths
I’ve been using these reusable makeup cloths to remove my makeup for many months now. They really do work and no chemicals are involved, you only use water. They even take off mascara and eyeliner no problem and my face always feels so good after I clean it at night. Pick up a set for each of your girlfriends or as a stocking stuffer for your teenage daughter.
12) Touch Screen Gloves
I live in a northern part of Alberta, Canada. It’s cold here you all but that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t have cute gloves to keep my hands warm. Not only are these warm and super fuzzy and soft inside, the touch screen fingers actually work so I don’t have to take my gloves off to check my phone. And can we just take a moment to check out that bow? Right?! Totally adorable!
13) Memory Foam Slippers
Are you starting to see a trend here? I like to be warm what can I say! You have no idea how many slippers I tried out that didn’t meet my criteria. I love a great slipper but I don’t want to spend a fortune on them. These Dr. Scholl’s slippers are a nice price and the quality is great. The memory foam is lovely and comfortable to walk on which I really appreciate it. Totally love these slippers and highly recommend!
14) Bite Lipstick Gift Set
This product is a holiday gift set available at Sephora. Bite lipsticks are one of my favorites. I love how easily they glide on and they don’t include any yucky harmful ingredients. Bite Beauty is crafted with natural and food grade ingredients. They also don’t taste or smell awful either as a result. This sweet Bite Beauty mini lipstick gift set is made up of four lipsticks in four different shades to try out packaged in a pretty red tin. Such a great gift for the beauty lover in your life.
So that’s it friends, 14 gift ideas for you under $50. I hope you found something in my 2017 gift guide that you like.
