As we fast approach Christmas day with many families, friends and relatives often coming together, the stress of buying gifts can be difficult to avoid.
Here are some affordable presents you can share with your loved ones:
- A kitchen tool: It takes some time to stock your first kitchen, especially with equipment that’s going to last. For that friend who needs basics, think of a can opener, potato peeler, or corkscrew. If you want to get fancier, you could go for a garlic press, a potato masher, or a pastry cutter. Write out a recipe in which they can use the appliance you gifted them for a personal touch.
- Small gardening tools can be a great gift for new homeowners suddenly faced with caring and tending to their garden.
- A journal or notebook can be a perfect present to a friend or a family member as they head into a new year that will have memories worthy of jotting down.
- Mugs are some of the home essentials that can be used every day and can bring good memories of a Christmas day on which friends or family members met and had a good day.
- A homemade recipe book filled with recipes that you love. This can be a great way to save money and avoid eating out while also sharing some beloved family recipes.
- A tray of six seedlings for someone who loves to garden.
