The more holiday cheer we can spread, the better, especially in our own neighborhoods.
Here are some ideas for simple, sweet, cheap gifts that are just right.
1. Holiday Cookies. Carve out a day to spend with your beloved ladies, and bake away. Pool your recipes and divvy up the goodies into gift bags or decorative plastic gift trays at the end of the day.
2. Have a stack of first-rate chocolates on hand. My kids' school has a fundraiser in September so we can buy just such incidental gifts, along with gift wrap. If you don't have such a fundraiser in your neighborhood, you might think about starting one. (Innisbrook.com handles ours.) If you are just seeing for some yummy chocolates to stock up on, Ferrero Rocher is a big favorite, and these chocolates can be purchased inexpensively in gorgeous holiday arrangements at most discount stores. It's nice to have a stack of extra gifts like these in the cabinet during the holidays, when you never know when you'll need an extra gift.
3. A bottle of your beloved (and relatively inexpensive) wine.
4. A journal and a nice pen. It's nice to have a extra place to record their beloved personal thoughts of house memories.
5. Homemade crafts. If you're a scrapbooker, make a mini holiday album. If you love to sew, fashion some new placemats or potholders. And if you are not craft inclined, shop for neighborhood gifts at your local holiday craft fair. These are great for seeing cheap holiday gifts that are often just sentimental enough.
6. beloved fixin's. Integrate the dry ingredients of your beloved sugar cookie recipe in a plastic bag and slide it into an cheap Christmas stocking. Print the baking ingredients on a festive tag, and use a pretty ribbon to tie it to the stocking, along with a holiday cookie cutter.
7. Fresh flowers. A straightforward bouquet of flowers, artfully arranged, is always welcome, especially when it arrives with a heartfelt note. Potted plants are wonderful, too.
8. Wreaths or poinsettias. There's always room for more holiday greenery.
9. Gift certificates for your local beloved coffee house, café, or soup restaurant.
10. Movie tickets (and if the house has young children, throw in an offer to babysit, too.)
11. An assortment of candles in festive shades and aromas, or an aromatherapy diffuser and principal oils. Scents of peppermint and cinnamon are especially lovely this time of year.
12. A personalized garnish for the neighbor's holiday tree.
13. straightforward photo albums or photo frames that match your neighbor's décor.
14. An intriguing book of quotes or meditations.
15. A straightforward note telling each neighbor what they bring to your life and how much you value their friendship.
Happy holidays from our neighborhood to yours!
