Brilliant Ideas: Uncommon Christmas Gifts

I hope everyone had an amazing Thanksgiving, it seems time is flying and that means Christmas is rapidly approaching! A coworker of mine recently introduced me to a cool site called uncommongoods it's full of cool, unique and totally individual gifts at a pretty fair price. I've searched the site for you and posted a few of my personal faves.

1.) Family Glassware- $12- each glass
Okay I think this is brilliant, while I was growing up my poor Mom was constantly cleaning up after us, I'm sure it drove her crazy. These glasses will make it so Mom no longer has to ask "who left the glass on the kitchen table", everyone will have their own personalized glass meaning Mom can sit back and relax knowing exactly who left it out.

2.) The Gratitude of Lacking Nothing Necklace- $55:
This beautiful necklace is perfect for the person in your life that has, well, everything. The description below is taken directly from the site.

"Lao Tzu wrote, "When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you." This necklace is a beautiful reminder that the wearer is never alone, but is at one with a universe of abundance. Its sterling silver charm takes the shape of yin and yang, the interconnected symbol of balance and harmony. The 24k gold vermeil pendant forms a Zen circle, representing enlightenment and the wholeness of the universe."

This is a great gift for the spiritual person in your life. Many more with different meanings are on the website. Be sure to check them out!

 

 3.) Tampon Cases- $30

I'm smitten with these pretty cases. They are super beautiful and very functional! I am always wondering where that tampon I stashed away for emergencies ran off to when I need it most. Look no more! This beautiful case will hold 3 regular size tampons, no more playing lost and found!

4.) Shark Socks- $9

Live every week like it's shark week with these adorable knit socks!

5.) The footed mug- $18

This is one of my absolute favorites, I think it's adorable and hilarious! A perfect conversation starter!

There is SO much more on this site, these are just a few of my personal favorites.Have fun browsing the site!

Find of the Week: Fantastic Beauty Gifts Under $20!

Christmas can be a stressful time of the year. Many of us are struggling financially but we still want to give fabulous gifts. Well look no further! Target has done it again!

I love Target. It is one of my favorite places to shop. From special designer clothing collections to super low prices on food, Target is a shopping wonderland. I often find it hard to leave there without blowing most of my money. So today when I was perusing the beauty section I spotted something fantastic... e.l.f. gift sets starting at just $3!! After watching hours of vlogs on youtube I kept noticing that all of these ladies were talking about e.l.f. What is this e.l.f.? I thought to myself and where can I find it? With a little google know how I found it was sold at Target. Well doesn't it just make sense that something people are raving about is sold there! Well DUH! So when I walked into target and saw all of these fantastic sets after hearing rave reviews about this product line, I had to find out for myself. I fell in love with what I found which included a 144 piece eyeshadow palette for only $15!! I'm not going to lie, I spent a whopping $5 on myself (oh yeah and I bought a gift as well). Here is what I left with:

e.l.f. Eyeshadow Palette in Smoky ($3)

e.l.f. Beauty Book in Bright ($5)

e.l.f. Ultimate Eyeshadow Palette ($15)

e.l.f. EyelidPrimer ($1)

e.l.f. Shimmering Face Whip in Spotlight ($1)

For more affordable sets including lipgloss and nail polish go to your local Target or check out the online store here! Til next time ladies!
