Hey there, hi there! We haven’t posted in so much time, but we could not let the holiday season go by without supporting the wonderful small businesses over at Etsy! Behold, our favorite gifts for the home under $40.
Just think, you can help out an independent biz and they’ll ship these useful holiday gifts for the home straight to your doorstep. Everybody wins!
Gifts for the Home – Creative Options
These gift ideas link to Etsy – with good reason! They have gifts of all kinds for all kinds of people. I find their Holiday Hub to be particularly helpful!
T-Shirt Blanket
I cannot recommend this gift enough. You know that bag of sports shirts you can’t let go of? Or maybe it’s a loved one’s cherished flannels that you can’t seem to part with. Whether it’s drama club annual t’s or the union freebies, pick a theme and make a blanket out of them!
Yes, you’ll have to do some sleuthing (and packing) to send the t-shirts to their headquarters. But you’ll end up with a keepsake to last a lifetime!
Funny Kitchen Towels
These clever dish towels make a great host/hostess gift too – or even an affordable housewarming gift!
C’mon now, who doesn’t love a play on a Freddie Mercury classic?
Custom Mugs
I’ll be honest, I lose at least a mug a year due to cracking or carelessness. Plus, we go through more mugs per day in the cold weather! Basically, I’m saying. –you can’t have enough mugs!
These are an excellent customizable mug for grandparents or parents-to-be! Plus they can customize door mats, too – another great gift for the home.
Christmas Morning Potpourri
A use-up-able option for someone you might not know well, but you know they’ve got enough candles.
Custom Cork Coasters
Coasters! You don’t know you need them until you’re needing them.
From frosty beverages to steaming hot cocoas, help your intended keep their coffee table unblemished with these snazzy coasters. (P.S., These would be great for wedding registry gifts, too!)
Oil Sprayers
I love oil sprayers. Why do I love oil sprayers so much? For one, they’re better for the environment than the canned options at the grocery. Plus, you can put your favorite oil inside – not just whatever seed oil concoction resides in the baking aisle.
Personalized Stocking Tags
These stocking name tags might be making an appearance in our home this year! (Shhh…) Help Santa out by keeping the stockings organized!
New Kitchen Hardware
It’s the easiest way to jazz up your kitchen without a gut overhaul (we’ve been there…) change out the hardware! Applies to bathroom vanity spruce-ups, too.

Leather Toiletry Bag for Him
If your home is anything like mine, it’s 75% hers shelving and 10% his (the kids get the other 15%). Make his corner of the cabinet (or suitcase) extra special by adding this lovely toiletry bag.
Neon Name Sign
Not sure what’s cool for teens & tweens? Nail it!
No, literally, nail it to the wall. Their name! Who wouldn’t want one of these snazzy name signs?
