10 favorite things.


brrr. thought i would get out to do some shopping today... but its a tad bit chilly out! i ran out to get the mail in flip flops. mistake! ha.

... so i thought i would share of few of my favorite inside things! each one would make a rockin' christmas gift... that is if you still have a few on your list! {i just have the guys left...}

1. my little snowman scentsy is out of the decor box and whiteout is making the room smell delish! g thought "whiteout" is not the best title for this bar... but it made for a laugh. this scensty might have retired, but a newbie called "blizzard" is equally delightful. might need for next year. {shop scentsy}

2. shea socks = cozy toes! shea infused mistle-toes lounge socks make my tootsies warm and super soft! my sis-in-law works at this shop, lucky lucky girl. i would probably never come home with a paycheck. {shop bathbodyworks}

3. newest favorite thing of the season... heated electric micro plush throw!! it's awesome. i am wrapped up in it at this very moment just sitting at the laptop on the bar top. its gotta oh 8 ft cord, adjustable temp and is machine washable! love! i had thought to get a new heated blanket for our bed but the husband likes his freeeeezing sheets! so this was the perfect solution for all worlds. {shop target, its only $25}

4. the venti mug from starbucks is a must. stocking stuffer?! i think so. {shop starbucks}

5. this little hot cocoa pitcher of warmth is "supposedly" for my stocking. g picked it out for me at williams-sonoma {whilst i was with him} and is making me wait wait wait. now i am craving some hot frothed cocoa and might have to break it out early. #donttellhubby. {shop ws}

6. by now you probably have the starbucks k-cups... but if the sticker price shocked ya off yer toes i bought them with a $5 off $15 purchase magazine coupon at bed bath and beyond! making them $10 instead of $15. oh starbucks, why are you so good? {shop here or here}

7. celebrate the season with tupperware is on in the background! back in the day (way back) my momma sold tupperware and this cassette was the gift one year. the family played and played that poor little thing till it broke... so just last year i ordered it in a vinyl record for mom! she loved it... and luckily dad snagged a new record player, the kind that burns it to a cd. amazon is a great place to find these sorts of treasured gifts.

8. stocking pins are all the rage! or they must be because they only had 20 letter "a"s, 1 "g" and 1 "n" left at target! luckily i grabbed ours before they vanished. love these letters and their blingyness {better in person}! {shop target}

9. counting down the days with our mirrored advent calendar. mini doors filled with verses and treats causes pause to reflect on the reason for the season! {shop target}

10. decorating the tree with snowflakes and sparkle... these are just a few of my favorite things! {shop target}

happy christmas shopping & gift giving!

a bakers gift.


absolutely adore this gift idea.
the perfect package for anyone who loves to bake!
