Woah it’s already December? How the heck did that even happen, lol!? 2020 has been the longest year of my life but somehow this holiday season has already whizzing by! I guess because I’m finally feel a spark of hope and cheer…oy vey! 

Well if you’re anything like me you’re super into the holidays this year because you’re clinging to anything bright and shiny as a well deserved distraction from the chaos of America… just me? Jokes aside, I’m super pumped about the holidays! Gift giving is my love language and shopping is my hobby so this is basically like, my Super Bowl! But I understand that not every is super into shopping and it can be difficult to find gifts for everyone on your list. Not to mention, most of us are on a pretty tight budget! So I partnered with some super awesome brands to give you some ideas that’ll make everyone on your list happy…for under $50!

Smart watches are a hot item this year and would be the perfect gift for basically anyone! iTouch Wearables is a great quality and budget friendly option for smart watches! The iTouch watches are compatible with Android and iOS but cost waaaay less than their competitors…I’m talking under $50! I think these smart watches are perfect for younger kids and teens who want a smart watch but you want to ease them into the responsibility of owning expensive electronics! It’s also a great option for anyone who thinks they might be interested in owning a smart watch but is on the fence. And its a fabulous gift to completely surprise someone with because its impressive, functional, and doesn’t break the bank! I’m giving the iTouch Air Special Edition to my husband so he can do all kinds of things hands free while he’s at work delivering mail (he’s so cute in the mail man uniform!). 

I’ve been using 7th Heaven face masks since I was a teenager! I usually get mine at Walmart or Ulta and they are super affordable and so much fun! I love doing a face mask with my sister while we watch movies or just before my shower after a long day. The price is so good (most are $1!) you won’t feel like you have to save these masks for a special occasion, so any day can feel special! These make fantastic stocking stuffers for the whole family (yes, even your dad should do a face mask!) or group a bunch together for a gift! For my birthday last year my friend gave me a cute mug full of face masks and candy and it was such a great gift! So if you’re looking for the perfect little touch to add to a gift set, or tape a gift card to, 7th Heaven products would be just the thing! 

Okay so this one is hilarious to me but maybe I just have an immature sense of humor lol! Ballsy is a company that makes grooming gifts for bodies with balls (and obviously anyone else who want to use Ballsy!) and their stuff is super nice! I don’t know about y’all but my husband is the type of typical dude who use a 5 in one shampoo, conditioner, body wash, face wash, tooth paste…okay I made that last part up but that’s how it feels! I think its super cool that Ballsy makes high quality products that are sensitive enough for men’s privates and targets their specific needs!The best part is these high end products don’t have a high price tag! I’m giving my husband the Jolly Jewels Sack Pack for Christmas, which smells amazing btw, and it includes the Nutts Butts and Body Wash, Nut Run Solid Cologne, and the Sack Spray Odor Neutralizer for only $45! Their gift sets start at $35 and are all under $100! Ballsy offers a variety of products starting at only $15 as well as a subscription service starting as low as $6 a month! This would be a great gift for your significant other, friends, siblings, and maybe even your dad if he has a good sense of humor lol! 

We all know that person who is hard to shop for because they already have EVERYTHING. Instead of buying them another candle (calling myself out!) get them Formé, the worlds first high heel shaper! This gift is perfect for a shoe lover or organizing fanatic because it helps you break in your new heels and also keep their shape in storage while they’re not being worn. I love useful tools and gadgets like this because although it’s use is practical, it’s so clever it feels like a novelty. Formé would also be a great add on gift to a beautiful pair of heels or a gift card to go shoe shopping! 

I have a lot of book lovers on my list and I love supporting Nashville creatives so this next one is my personal fave! Squeeze The Lime, written by local Nashville native Courtnie R. Dunn, is a novel about a young southern belle heroine who is determined to find her purpose, but along the way a new guy enters her life. Her world is flipped upside down and she must overcome harsh obstacles such as betrayal, stalking, and ever murder. She will also discover the power of love. I love reading books with female characters written by female authors! I also love that this book combines a story of self disocvery with a love story AND adds thriller elements! If you love stories where you can escape into someone else’s world (and drama) you will love Squeeze The Lime!  You can find Squeeze The Lime many places online, but I highly recommend purchasing it from Nashville’s independent book store Parnassus Books! Support a local author AND a local book store, and now you’re Santa! Don’t forget, it’s totally okay to get a gift for yourself too! 

I hope this list was helpful! Head over to instagram story highlight for more pics and videos of these gifts and more! Stay tuned for more gift guides coming your way all next week! Ho ho ho!
