I absolutely LOVE this gift guide for stocking stuffers for a couple of reasons. The first? Most of the items are cheap. It’s easy to round-out your gifts without breaking the budget. Another reason? You can combine multiple stocking stuffers into a gift basket if you are looking for a larger gift.
Most of the gifts are from Amazon (who doesn’t love Amazon) with a few from a couple of other companies that I regularly shop from. If it’s not specified, it’s from Amazon.

Gifts for adults
• I LOVE tea. Ever since I discovered loose leaf teas, I’ve been exploring a whole new world of tea. You can find loose leaf teas a variety of places. (If you’re not sure if they have a tea strainer, here are a couple of good ones from Amazon: Teabox Tea Infuser & Steel Mesh Tea Balls.)
If you don’t want to mess around with loose leaf, try these “in bag” options: Tea sampler: Taylors of Harrogate Classic or Twinings 48-Count Variety.
• A meaningful picture, framed. To often we snap pics, store them online, and never have them around the house. This works for guys and gals. I LOVE ArtToFrames and own some myself. My father-in-law loves pictures of him and his Corvette framed.
• Gift cards. I used to hate giving gift cards until I started receiving some. Then I realized it really can be the perfect gift!
•Cocoa from Amazon: Ghirardelli Hot Cocoa Premium Indulgence or Godiva Hot Cocoa.
• Car Air Freshener. I’m particularly fond of the Yankee Car Air Fresheners.
• Back Scratcher. Because sometimes your favorite back scratcher (someone you love) isn’t available.
• Homemade Gift Certificates. I have “Free Printable Christmas Gift Certificates” along w/ ideas of what to give!
• Cookies. My favorite is “Grandma’s Cookies Variety Pack.” Enough to stuff something in everyone’s stocking (including the kids!). If you’re looking to spend a little more, though, Barnett’s Chocolate Cookies Gourmet Box is great!
• Popcorn (under $20). You can go with already popped, unpopped, or those cute tins that are flavored. My favorite is the “Popcornopolis Popcorn 12 Cone Sampler“. Since it’s already divided into 12 samples, you can pop something in everyone’s stocking.
• Ornament (for the tree).
• Homemade Christmas Pretzel Kisses. Quick, easy, but really cute. Just put in a cute bag and add a gift tag (can use Free Printable Christmas Gift Tags if you want)
Gifts for Women
• Ghirardelli! Who doesn’t love chocolate? I normally buy one of the larger packs and then break it down for stocking stuffers for two or three different people. The normal “bags” come with 40 pieces, more than enough for multiple different people in their stockings!
• Coloring books for adults. Yes, seriously. I’ve discovered these are amazing stress-reliever. Favorite books: Stress-Relieving Animals and Kaleidoscope Images.
