My Favourite Things Gift Guide & Amazing GIVEAWAY!

You guys!

I am so excited to be here today sharing some of my very favourite things gift guide along with an amazing giveaway!

Have you started your holiday shopping? For the first time in years I am feeling ahead of the game! I’ve already gotten several gifts purchased and I have a pretty good idea of what else I want to get for people. I’m trying not to leave it until the week before Christmas like I have tended to do the last couple of years. Today I am sharing some of my very favourite things. Some are things I have that I love. Some are gifts that I would be thrilled to give. And some are gifts that I am hoping to receive!

Plus, twelve of my blogging friends are sharing their own gift guides and Favourite Things Giveaways today – so after you enter my Giveaway head on over to the next up in this hop, Lindsay at The White Buffalo Styling Co, to see what she is sharing and giving away!

Favourite Bedding

I love our new duvet cover set from BlissLivingHome and this Shangri-La Duvet Cover Set is equally beautiful. Also from BlissLiving Home, it has such a pretty, graphic, boho chic design and would be the perfect gift for anyone wanting to refresh their bedroom this winter!

Favourite Decorative Candle 

I love deliciously scented candles around the holiday season. Nothing sets the Christmas mood like the crisp earthy smell of a Christmas tree. If you don’t have a “real” tree scenting up your home, then this Noble Fir & Juniper Finely Fragranced Soy Blended Candle from the Alassis Holiday Collection is definitely the next best thing! Such a great gift for anyone on your list!

Favourite Mug

I can’t get over how pretty this Mint Starry Sky Simplicity Porcelain Tea Mug from David’s Tea is. In fact, I just bought it yesterday as a gift for someone… I’m secretly hoping that someone buys me one too!

Favourite Winter Tea

The perfect thing to fill up that beautiful mug with? Snow Day from David’s Tea is my absolute favourite new tea- the perfect balance of peppermint and chocolate. I can’t wait to drink some every evening this holiday season. Your friends will love you for gifting them this treat!

Favourite Book Series

I can’t talk enough about Outlander series and this Outlander Boxed Set  by Diana Gabaldon would make an excellent gift for anyone who hasn’t read them before.

Favourite Journal

I love how DIY gifts can be super personalized – but if you are short on time you can still give a really personal gift without making it yourself. I love the different Personalized Journals  available from Tiny Prints. There is a design for anyone on your list!

Favourite Planner 

Most of us have the goal of getting more organized on our resolution list for 2016 – and my friend Abby is making it easy with her new amazing  Twenty Sixteen Printable Intentional Life Planner . The great thing is – you could buy and print out a few copies for your closest friends. Choose a beautiful binder to put it in, or have it bound with a personalized cover. A gift I would love to get!

Favourite Print

Another special and personalized gift idea is a custom Province or State print like this Watercolour Map Print(available in any Province or State) from The Sweetest Digs. Frame it with an inexpensive frame, and you have something unique and special to give a friend or family member.

Favourite Tool

After repainting our main bathroom with the EZ Twist Paint Stick from HomeRight I have found a new favourite tool! This would make a great gift for the DIYer on your list!

Favourite Boots

 I can’t quite get enough of my Hunter boots. I wear them whether it’s rainy or sunny. Mine are a dark teal blue colour, but I love these light blue grey  Hunter Original Adjustable Tall Gloss Rainboots  equally.

Favourite Scarf

Oversized scarves are the thing this season! And this beautiful Patterned Flannel Blanket Scarf from Old Navy is super versatile – you can wrap it over a dress, like this is, or do a big chunky warp around your neck. This makes a great gift for a friend or co-worker.

Favourite Ornament

I always think that ornaments are such a pretty and simple Christmas gift for colleagues,  neighbours, and as a hostess gift. I love the unique elegance of this Gold World Globe Ornament from Pottery Barn.

Favourite Makeup Item

This is definitely on my list this season- I absolutely love the season MAC palettes – and this Purples Eyeshadow Palette from MAC Cosmetics is my current fave.

Favourite Christmas Music

Always a classic, even my boys sing along with this one. Michael Buble Christmas is a great gift for anyone on your list!
