The holiday season is upon us.  I rounded up some of my favorite inexpensive gifts for $35 and under.  These are great hostess gifts or white elephant gift exchanges.

This holiday guide is sweet, short, and simple, with many suggestions for useful items that will be loved, used, and cherished for years.

I encourage you not just to buy gifts for the sake of buying.  Instead, go beyond that and gift gifts with intention and purpose.

Choosing ethical and sustainable brands and products is a huge priority of mine whenever possible.  

Happy gifting.
