All I Want for Christmas & What I’m Giving

Giving is always more fun than receiving but sometimes a girl just wants to rip open a gift!

I’ve been doing the bulk of my shopping online in the comfort of my own cozy home while avoiding the crowds! I’ve found some really cool things that I hope Santa puts in my stocking and others that I plan to give to everyone on my list …

All I Want for Christmas

Luna – I’m all over anything that keeps me looking my best and this baby does something high tech with sonic pulses that is supposed to help me maintain my youthful glow!

Sasquatch – the mother of all cocktail shakers! This gigantic shaker will mix up 10 cocktails at once and I can’t wait to whip it out at parties!

Head Vase – I have been pining for this for ages and would love to have her male companion too!

Sectional Sofa – it’s a biggie but I have been coveting this sofa for ages and it’s 30% off now (the best price I’ve ever seen). It’s time to break up ripped and tattered sofas!

What I’m Giving for Christmas

Echo Dot – I just ordered 2 for my girls (it’s less than $50). It’s a cool hands-free, voice-controlled device that plays music, controls smart home devices, provides information (ask it anything), reads the news, sets alarms and more!

Lumee – phone case lights up for perfect nighttime selfies (grab them while they’re 20% off)

Pura Vida Bracelets – my daughter turned me on to this jewelry that is hand made in Costa Rica. I love their line of charity bracelets with 20% going directly to charity (I got four “Lung Cancer Awareness” bracelets for my sister, my girls and me to wear in memory of my dad). Prices start at just $5.

Instant Pot – my hubby loves to cook and this will make weeknight cooking a whole lot faster
(as seen in my  list of 30 Kitchen Essentials)

Mens Slippers – these will keep my hubbies feet cozy and I love the colors (I got gray but I love the navy and plaid too) and I added his monogram for a luxe touch

Mittens – I got a pair of these sherpa lined mittens last year and they are the coziest, warmest mittens in the world. I love that the tops fold down too.

and my favorite hand made gifts to give this year (perfect for neighbors, teachers, friends) are my bulbs in cookie jars.
