Ok...so this is really gift idea #1 on the blog, but I jumped the gun and posted two ideas to my facebook page...
Click on the coffee mug to check out the first installments if you missed them.
The next gift idea is a health & beauty product and think it would be fine for a man. Of course, my son would disagree.
My daughter is really into these new lip balms called eos (evolution of smooth). They are packaged in a round, plastic sphere (math teacher alert!) with a smaller sphere inside. The smaller sphere is a solid, all-natural, antioxidant -rich lip balm.
The eos lip balms come in a variety of flavors and plastic shell colors. They cost around $3. Some retailers are promoting a holiday package of 3 eos lip balms for about $9.

I am going to hot glue a stick to one end of the eos sphere and wrap with cellophane. Then, tie the cellophane with a ribbon to create a "lollipop" effect.
The cost will still remain under $5.
Cheers!
There are so many gift ideas out there that you don't need to break the bank. I'm venturing out to find 50 gifts in 50 days! There will be at least one post per day highlighting a gift idea that costs no more than five dollars.
All efforts will be made to cover a variety of items. I tend to gravitate towards "female" stuff...it's just a force of nature. But, I'm making a conscious decision to search for "male" items as well.
The featured gifts will be a mix of consumer products and DIY creations.
The gifts can be used for, but not limited to:
- stocking stuffers
- secret Santa exchange
- co-worker/colleagues
- extra gifts for unexpected guests
- hostess/host gift
- babysitter
- hairdresser
- postal carrier
- party favors
- secretaries
- neighbors
Have fun with gift giving. The holidays are a wonderful time of year to spend with family and friends. Make it even better with low-cost fabulous gifts!
Cheers!
