Evette’s Handy-Dandy Last-Minute Gift Guide

If only we all lived in the North Pole and had a whole year to prepare for Christmas! Being that we don’t, and that our busy schedules just keep snowballing into even busier schedules, we tend to leave Christmas shopping to the very last minute. All is well! I teamed up with hayneedle.com to come up with my very own Handy-Dandy Last-Minute Shopper’s Gift Guide! It’s great for practically every member of your family, and should do the trick for all those last-minute gifts!

Mom

1)  For the Super Mom who’s always on the go, nothing says “I love you” more than the Remedy Vibrating Foot Massager. Not only will she be thanking you, so will her feet!

2)  There’s something about wind chimes that bring a certain Zen into any home. Carved from environmentally sustainable woods, the Cohasset Blue Butterfly 13 Inch Wind Chime is a perfect gift for the Mom who’s been undergoing a lot of holiday stress and needs a time-out.

3)  Deck your Mom out this Christmas with a pair of super comfy (and stylish) Lamo Women’s Pink Scuff Slippers!

4)  For the tech-savvy, trendy mama, Hadaki’s On the Run Messenger Bag is sure to bring a smile to her face this Christmas! This stylish bag fits any size tablet, comes in a variety of colors, and can be used as a purse on her days off.

Dad

1)  Is Dad an avid sports fan? Get his favorite basketball team on a pair of Comfy Feet NBA Low Pro Stripe Slippers; he’ll never leave bed without ‘em!

2)  Dad will totally appreciate the ease of the Hamilton Beach 6 Cup Digital BrewStation. No pour, no spill, no mess … just a clean cup o’ joe!

3)  Indulge Dad’s love of reading – and organization – this Christmas with the professional Piel Leather Kindle Fire Envelope Case in saddle brown. He’ll be able to take it with him pretty much everywhere he goes!

Grandparents

1)  Brrrrr! ‘Tis the season to be freezin’! Keep your Nanna and Pap toasty warm with Acorn Men’s and Women’s Grey Ragg Wool Slipper Sock Slippers for indoor/outdoor use and they’ll be up jumpin’ and jivin’ – and totally comfy – this Christmas!

2)  With the Allied Precision EZ Deck Tilt & Clean Bird Bath, your grandparent(s) will be the chirp of the town! Great for the grandparent that loves to sit on the deck/patio and appreciate nature at its finest.

3)  Excruciating knots, lower back aches, shoulder spasms, and neck pains? If this is what your Granny and/or Gramps are dealing with, they would be perfect candidates for the HoMedics Back-Charger Massage Cushion!

Brother

1)  The BookWedge Inflatable Reading Pillow is a great gift for the guy who loves to travel. He’ll be able to just roll it up and stow it away in his carry-on or briefcase. Ta-da!

2)  Here’s a thoughtful idea for a big sports fan: frame a Blakeway Panorama of his favorite NFL team! He’ll be able to hang it up in the bar, his bedroom, or “man cave.”

3)  Shopping for a family-man? A great addition, the Table Top Combo Set is packed with tons of family fun and will provide years of game nights!

Sister

1)  A cute – and practical – bag that would be great for every girl/woman. From new student to new mom, the Wildkin Big Dots Hot Pink Kickstart Messenger Bag is sure to elicit a “yippee” from her.
