LAST MINUTE GIFT IDEAS UNDER $50

The Steele Maiden: Last Minute Gifts Under $50

I hate to break it to you… but time is running out to wrap up your holiday gift shopping. So if – like me – you’re in need of a few more last minute gift ideas before Monday, I’ve got you covered! All of these are under $50 and will ship to you by Friday December 22nd. Run, run Rudolph!

SHOP LAST MINUTE GIFTS: 

  1. I love this cute retro alarm clock – for the person who is always oversleeping.
  2. This boxed book set would be so special for a little girl in your life (or anyone really – they’re classics for a reason!)
  3. I’m still not over the idea of toting around a polaroid to have a tangible photo memory of your next vacation – or even Christmas morning.
  4. Is there anything better than freshly sharpened colored pencils? Gift to the doodler in your life.
  5. This laptop sized backpack is perfect for your college aged brother/cousin/nephew.
  6. No one has ever had too many bright pom hats.
  7. This wall mounted bottle opener is so much prettier than digging an old one out of a drawer.
  8. Cute coasters – gift with a bottle of their favorite wine or liquor.
  9. How fun are these pineapple string lights? Gift them to your co-worker who is already dreaming of next summer.
  10. This is my all-time favorite perfume – in handy travel sized roll-ons.

INSTAGRAM ROUND-UP + LAST MINUTE HOLIDAY SALES

The Steele Maiden: Instagram Lately

Oh hi there! Remember me?! These past couple of weeks (okay.. months) have been a whirlwind between my full time job, real life and this corner of the internet so hoping you can excuse the few days of radio silence (but in the meantime be sure you’re following me on Instagram so you see the day to day). I spent most of this weekend trying to race around time to get my holiday shopping wrapped up – and if you’ve decided to wait until one week before Christmas to do your own shopping (or just have been equally busy and haven’t yet had the time) at least you can take advantage of the major sales/shipping deals happening right now. Below – what’s been up on Instagram lately + some last minute gift suggestions. And for more – check out my holiday gift guide here.

GUIDE TO: LAST MINUTE HOLIDAY GIFT IDEAS

9 days until Christmas and we’re officially in the red zone when it comes to gift shopping. I’ve still got a ways to go on my own list (and have a hunch I’m not alone in this), so I wanted to share a no fail line-up of things that – if you hop to it – can still be ordered online to arrive in time to be tucked under the tree. Here, a few of my favorite things to pick up if you’re down to the wire (lots on sale + free shipping!):
