Well, it’s getting VERY close to the big day, and if you’re anything like me, you’re still putting the finishing touches on all your gifts. It feels like no matter how organized I am at the beginning of the season, I’m always still frantically running around the week before Christmas!! And although this year has been less in-store shopping and more online shopping, I’m still biting my nails hoping my packages arrive in time! Today I’ll be sharing my Gift Guide for Stocking Stuffers!! Hopefully, after the stockings have been stuffed, you can relax with a big glass of wine and admire all your hard work under the tree.

Something Sweet

No stocking is complete without something sweet (rhyme very much intended)!! The Reindeer Poop Cookie Mix Jars from Jars by Jodi are always a hit in ANY stocking! They also make great little gifts to drop off at friends and family’s doorsteps. And I’m sure everybody is just as obsessed with Purdy’s Chocolate as I am. Purdy’s is a stocking stuffer staple in BC and I can’t imagine a Christmas without them. I also LOVE these gourmet marshmallows by Mushmallows!!! Gary and I made the mistake of letting Pierce try them, and he’s OBSESSED!

Something for the Mind

Especially after the year we’ve had, I feel like we could all use some downtime to reflect. I love the idea of this Five Minute Journal to decompress and appreciate all the good. I also love the idea of gifting a book that makes you think, and hopefully, change for the better. How to be an Antiracist by Ibram X. Kendi is at the top of my reading list and I included a couple others above that would also make great stocking stuffers for anyone on your list. 

Something for Self Care

We all need to make sure we’re taking care of ourselves now more than ever. Health is SO important, and I like to think of it from a full-circle approach. Everything you put in and on your body should be chosen with care. I Luv It Natural Deodorant is made from thoughtful natural ingredients and comes in the perfect size for stocking stuffers!! I’m also the biggest fan of the 100% natural makeup from Nude by Nature. Their Glistening Sands Collection gift set is perfect for anybody who’s constantly zoom-ing and needs a quick, easy, touch-up kit. And for anybody needing a refresh on their skincare routine, this Illuminate Overnight Set from Biossance works wonders!! It’s all vegan, nontoxic and paraben-free, so you can feel good about feeding your skin with it. And finally, some supplements from Polo Health!! It’s soso important to make sure we’re all getting the right vitamins and nutrients during these cold and dark months. 

Something for Around the Home

New slippers for Christmas are a family tradition in our house, so I can’t wait to slip some new adorable, handmade slippers in Pierce’s stocking from Oliver + Co. And a super easy stocking stuffer for the bathroom…. This soap-filled, exfoliating wash pad from Saje! I love the zesty, refreshing scent the essential oils give to it. 

Something Unexpected

And finally, why not stuff something totally unexpected in their stocking!? This beautiful bracelet from Pandora might not scream stocking stuffer, but it’s sure to surprise her! You can’t snoop under the tree if Santa shows up with it on Christmas Eve LOL! I also love the idea of gifting an experience like a virtual workshop. There are tons out there right now covering everything from cooking to painting and photography.

Well, there you have it! Now that I’ve taken you through my complete Gift Guide for Stocking Stuffers, you should be set for the final stretch of shopping. And while it’s easy to get caught up in gifting, I really do think that the most important thing you can give your family at this time of year is your love and support. Everybody is going through their own set of struggles with this VERY strange holiday season, and we all need to look out for each other. So take a minute and call your mom, or text a friend to just check-in and tell them you care!!! Wishing everybody a healthy, safe, and cozy Christmas this year!!!!
