I actually really wanted to do a haul post some time this week too but is it just me who finds taking pictures of clothes nearly impossible?? Anyway I salute all you fashion bloggers out there, I don't know how you do it.
But on with today's post, I thought I'd do a little giftspriation, I think it's a good feeling when you know what you're gonna get for someone for Christmas BEFORE the actual Christmas day. There's no last days of shopping stress etc. etc. I mainly have things that are quite cheap but I also included some expencive ones and I really hope I can help you with deciding what to buy :)
Ofcourse you know that DIYs are some of the cheapest gifts but they're also very personal and cute, here are some ideas that you can make
1) ...reasons why I love you book
I know that some people write it on a deck of cards and then they get 52 reasons but you can just take a slightly thicker paper and write however many reason you want. I think the person who recieves this will be so happy because it really just comes from heart and it's so cute and all :)
2) 30 days of inspiration
This one I actually made by myself and I'm gonna give it to my dad. I got the idea last year when my friend gave me this present for Christmas. Basically you just find a little jar, decorate it and then you can search online or come up with some inspirational quotes. You write each on a piece of paper and fold it up and stick it into the jar. The person who recieves it has to take one of them each day and so they have 30 days of inspiration :)
These were the DIYs, now let's get on with the cheap ones that you can buy. And by cheap I mean under 15€
3) Stenders gift sets
So I don't know if you've heard of this shop calles Stenders but it's amazing. They sells all kinds of bath stuff and skin stuff, it's pretty much like The Body Shop just a little bit cheaper. And they have these adorable gift sets that you can also buy online if you want, there are so many that you can choose from (http://www.stenders-cosmetics.com/gift-ideas) But they also have the opportunity of making your own set from their products. When you go into the store they have these boxes in different sizes and they look so cute and you can put what ever you want in them. The price range starts from under 10€
4) Little giftbag of goodies
If you can't just choose one product to give then you can buy a few smaller ones and put them in a beautiful bag. Ofcourse you don't have to buy as much as in the picture, just buy like 2 or 3 and add some candy and chocolate in the bag and it'll be great gift for a beauty lover :)
5) A calendar
Since the end of the year is pretty damn close by Christmas then a calendar would be a great gift. And don't just buy a regular small one. My other friend got me the calendar in the picture last year and I think she found it from a book store so have a look into these. And if you're from Estonia and if you didn't know then we have this webstore called kalendrid.ee http://www.kalendrid.ee/ and you can put your personal pictures not only on calendars but also they make mugs, puzzels, business cards, t-shirts and some other stuff, all are great for gifts also.
And now I have slightly more on the expencve side gifts for all you splurgers out there!
6) A nailpolish set
You can buy some Christmassy colours and then put them in a cute box or bag with some chocolate or candy. This can also be a cheap gift idea, it depends on how many and how expencive ones you will buy. If you want then you can also buy a ready made set, some brands come up with like different themes or seasons etc. A great choice would be Essie winter 2013 collection.
7) A big candle
If you know that your friend loves candles then why not to get her a big, a slightly more expencive candle that she might not buy by herself. Maybe a yankee candle or bath and body works.
7) A bag
So there is this Amazing site! Over here http://www.5ashoesbags.com/handbags-c-68.html. It sells expencive brands like Louis Vuitton, Chanel and many more. Not only bags but also jewlery, some clothes and some other accessories. Literally it is amazing, all the details look exactly the same as originals, everything is spelled right. and when usually a Louis Vuitton bag costs like 500-1000€ then look at the price of that! Definately go and check that website out, if you can't afford to buy a bag then a Tiffany bracelet is like $13. Or you can ask your parents to get you something from there for Christmas ;)
So this is it for my gift inspiration, I hope I have helped atleast some of you (I mean I think the last idea is pretty amazing hehe) Let me know in the comments what you think, and yeah :)
Have a beautiful, magical, wonderful day!
