GREAT HOLIDAY IDEAS

I find July to be a great time to think about the holidays.  It’s so hot outside and my thoughts wander to cooler weather.  Check out Marshalls or TJ Maxx for great ideas.  While perusing the stores today I saw lots of ideas.  Let me share some ideas with you.

For the office group – head down to housewares and check out symbol yet practical gifts.  I found a “not” paper cup coffee tumblers in a variety of colors.  These were great ideas.  There porcelain tumblers that come with a silicone lid and a silicone gripper. Very inexpensive and very “green”.  Support reusable cups vs filling the land fills.

For family – maybe a sister or sister in laws? Check out the health and beauty section. You can find lots of different bath and beauty products. Sugar Scrubs, soaps, body wash, Bath salts.  Mix and match different items or find collections – but it’s inexpensive and personalized to their taste.  Another great idea is the purses.  Come December those purses won’t be there.   If you find a nice Cherry Red – pick it up and give it as a holiday purse.  She’ll really thank you!

Maybe for the cook in your family who’s looking for new pots and pans? dishes? barware? silverware? I found lots and lots of options to fit that special cook in the family.  A great idea to think of someone who needs things to fill their new new home or apartment.

Shopping tip:  think of the person and put thought into the gift.  Don’t let holiday shopping frustrate you.
