The holidays are supposed to be a time of joy and peace. But finding the perfect<\/em> gift can be incredibly stressful! Gift guides often feel more like an ad list than a genuine suggestion. Well, stress no longer! Here are my top five gift suggestions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. A Candy Basket: Most people enjoy candy, and if you know the person’s favorite, you’re halfway there to a wonderful gift! Buy a nice basket or box and fill it with their favorite candy! Add some other small knickknacks and add a bow. People enjoy a gift that looks effortfully made. A little goes a long way!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Bath and Body Works Candles: What do you get someone who you have no idea of what they’d like? A Bath and Body Works<\/a> candle. A household brand with a reputation of well liked and enjoyable scents. It’s impossible to go wrong!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Squishmallows: Squishmallows<\/a> are exploding in popularity within the plush toy collector space and beyond. Think beanie babies but with the added benefit of being a pillow. At various sizes, designs, and prices Squishmallows make wonderful gifts. They’re just so cute and cuddly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Minecraft: Minecraft <\/a>is a video game that is over ten years old now. However the game and community both are as alive as ever! One of the benefits of gifting Minecraft is it’s available practically everywhere; computers, laptops, gaming consoles, phones, etc. Minecraft can be enjoyed by all ages and players of all skill levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Nintendo Switch<\/a>: With the introduction of the new o-led model the original model Switches are selling at a slightly lower price. Now is a great time to buy! The Switch is a two in one gaming console, capable of playing on the TV and on the go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
