December is a big gift-giving time for us. We have Hanukkah and Christmas, and we also have four family birthdays!
So anything I can do to make gift-giving easier is a good thing!

Gifts Under $25
Coffee is an essential part of my life. I think these mugs are adorable, especially if you have a coffee addict lover in your life ($19.87):
For colder drinks (or hot ones, actually), I love these Tervis tumblers ($21.99):
You can get them for most teams or with Minions or other characters and designs, too.
Cuddle up under this pretty and soft throw blanket ($20.99):
From World Market
For easier clean-up when baking, I love these reusable silicone non-stick baking sheets ($15.27):
While we’re baking, how cute are these beehive measuring cups ($12.99)?
And these adorable and useful kitchen towels ($7.99):
I love to paint, so I love getting new, fresh brushes in my stocking! Here are my favorite brushes ($19.97):
And for small jobs or cutting-in, I love this little brush ($5.47):
This is such a handy light. It works with the batteries from the other RYOBI One+ Tools and is a great light when the power goes out or when you just need a little extra illumination ($20.97).
Clamp On, Hand Helds & Stand-Up: Ryobi Flashlights 18-Volt One+ LED Workshop Light (Tool Only) P780
And for your desk (or the desk of a dog lover in your life!), I love this dog calendar from World Market ($22.49):
Gifts Under $50
The Rabbit Wine Tool
These boots have kept my feet warm and dry on many a cold and wet soccer morning ($40):

My favorite tool: my RYOBI drill ($49 at Home Depot).
Drill/Drivers: Ryobi Drills One+ 18-Volt Lithium-Ion Starter Drill Kit P1810
I use my drill all the time – it’s perfect for small jobs or building big projects. And it’s so easy to use and lightweight that even my eight-year-old can use it!
Splurges
I love flannel sheets! There’s nothing better on a winter night than snuggling into a bed with plaid flannel sheets ($99.95 – Queen Size).
I hope this has given you some great gift-giving ideas! What’s the best gift you’ve ever received? I’d love for you to share in the comments! Thanks!
A "recovering lawyer," I turned in my power suits for power tools and a life of DIY. I believe in merging old and new to make a house a home.
Do you still have the bumble bee measuring cups?
World Market does still sell them. I don’t have them (I ended up getting different ones), but I know you can still get them online. Hope that helps!
