A friend of mine messaged me the other day asking for some advice on what to get for some girls that are throwing her a shower. She needed something cheap because she has 8 to get. As I was thinking of some ideas, I realized my message back to her was turning into a blog post!
So now, I wanted to share those ideas with you!
*PINS: I LOVE the Posie Pins from The Pleated Poppy.
*COFFEE CUP KOOZIE: (not as trashy as it sounds!!) These are cute and would be fun paired with a $5 Starbucks gift card. There's lots of different patterns, too.
*ORNAMENT: Depending on when your showers are, a Christmas ornament (not a Santa head or anything!) would be nice because then when they hang it up every year, they'll think of you :)
*FRAME: I know frames can be overrated sometimes, but a cute frame with a handwritten note from you would be so sweet.
*When I did my sister's baby shower, she got me and the other girls a magazine subscription. There are some websites that have cheap magazine subscriptions. She gave us a list beforehand to let us pick which one we wanted. Every month when that magazine came, it reminded me of who gave it to me.
*Anything from Crate & Barrell!! I love how they have a lot of plain, white stuff because it's so easy to dress it up...plus it's cheap!
-containers: These would be cute with a little ribbon around it and maybe some matching colored candy inside.
-or these little bowls. they come in different colors.
*VERA BRADLEY - They're sale stuff is pretty cheap. Here's some cute things under $10. (None of the pictures would copy...sorry!)
-Zip ID Case -Clip Zip ID -Charmed Pouch -Coin Purse
*CHARMING CHARLIE - Please tell me you have a Charming Charlie! It's an accessory store on overload. I have to admit that it's overstimulating the first time you walk in, but after that...it's just plain addicting! The bonus is that most of their stuff is very reasonably priced.
*And...well...I could only think of 9. What would YOU suggest??

love 'em! glad i could help out with your next blog post :). I think i'm gonna go with a couple airtight jars with homemade hot choc and spiced tea mixes in them. perfect for fall and perfect for a tight budget! this baby ain't cheap and she's not even here yet :).
Lovely ideas! I'm always trying to come up with inexpensive but sweet gifts. A friend once gave me Aveda hand lotion and foot lotion...which I loved!! :) Great list. (I found u @ ohamanda)
