Under $25 Gift Guide + a $200 Giveaway {CLOSED}

March 2, 2019
In keeping with my realistic gift guides, today I’m sharing a gift guide for several different people in your life–all at under $25. The gifts are mainly home-based since everyone could use things for their home, plus today’s giveaway is with a homeware store: Williams-Sonoma!
For mom:
Let’s be real, who doesn’t love a candle, but it seems like moms love them even more than most. This refreshing scent is my personal fave, but Williams-Sonoma offers several different scents that are all equally delightful.
For the lush:
Coming from a wine lover, let me tell you: aerators are everything. The proper way to drink wine is to let it “breathe” for like an hour or two. No thanks. Aerators speed that process up and really let the true flavors of the wine shine through.
For the homebody:
Oooh, this blanket is just calling my name. The chic faux fur makes it a great decor piece, but the soft, cozy feel makes it perfect to keep warm during these cold winter months. It’s a total win-win
For the domestic diva:
This fabulous gold vase is the perfect centerpiece for a table, a great accent for a bookshelf or a beautiful focus in an entryway. The gold color is on trend while the cool, geometric shape is enough to make a statement, yet subtle enough not to steal the show.
For the guy:
Since most guys are BBQ fans, this is a pretty safe bet. Steer clear of the typical tie/sock/cologne gifts that he’s probably sick of and give a tasty gift like this smokey set.
For the sweets lover:
To tell you the truth, I’m not a big sweets lover, but OMG these cookies just look too amazing! Peppermint is my weakness and I know I’m not the only one. These unique cookies are on perfect for the holiday season and plus, who doesn’t love cookies?
For the DIYer:
For those do-it-yourselfers, this is the perfect gift. It comes with everything you could need to make your own lotion just how you like it. Gift the gift of fun and crafting along with a fun final product. Plus if you two create it together, it will be a fun experience to share together!
For the coworker: +
I loooove a good mug + treat gift! Special mugs are the best. What better gift to give than something they’ll actually use every day? The mug is useful and pretty, while the treat shows them you listen when they talk about what they like. Obvi, just make sure it’s something they’ll actually like!
For the creative: Unique Wall Art
I am in love with this local artist’s work! She just finally began selling her prints and I couldn’t be more excited. If you click over you’ll see that the art is actually $30 each, but Christina was sweet enough to create a coupon code just for Lush to Blush readers for $5 off – making them just $25 each! Score! Use code LUSH2GIFT at checkout for $5 off 🙂
What would you add to the list?
