2016 Holiday Gift Guide: 40 favorites for him, her, kids & home!

November 23, 2016 · 1 Comment
Filed Under: holidays, inspiration, lifestyle

Last weekend we saw our first snowfall of the season, our first Winter as a family of five! I’m a little excited for a slower pace as we stay cozy inside and try new activities, recipes, and traditions. This year, in anticipation of Christmas, I’ve put together a Holiday Gift Guide featuring our personal favorite items. I’ve enjoyed my blog’s community for many years, and it’s fun to see our similarities and learn about new products. I hope this list is inspiring for all.

Below is a small sample of what’s included in my 2016 Holiday Gift Guide: 40 favorites for him, her, kids & home, and below that is the full list. If you see something you like, search for it numerically below.

Merry Christmas, and have a wonderfully fun time shopping online :)
