4 Gifts: Gift Ideas – Wants

Filed Under: Christmas, Family Tagged With: 4 Gifts, gift ideas

Halloween is over, therefore it is time to start thinking about Christmas Gifts. Someone told me about the concept of 4 Gifts a few years ago, but we hadn’t followed through yet. Basically, each person would get 1 or 2 gifts from each Category: something they want | something they need | something they’ll wear | something they’ll read. I love this idea because it will really help teach your children that Christmas isn’t about how many presents they get. It is about being Thankful for the gifts they DO receive. Therefore, for the next four weeks I will share some gift ideas for myself from each category. I am starting with gifts that I want. Since I really love shopping handmade, these are all from Etsy.

 4 Gifts : Gift Ideas – Wants
 4 Gifts: Gift Ideas - Wants

1. DSLR Scarf Strap | I love the mint and gold. I have been eyeing up the scarf straps for awhile. I think they are so pretty.

2. iPad Mini Stand | This would come in handy when I am using the iPad for a recipe while cooking. Also while watching shows on Netflix.

3. Phone Wallet/Wristlet | I love that this is big enough to hold your phone and anything else you may need. She also offers to add SD Card Slots. Which would be nice for me.

4. You Make Me Brave Bracelet | Our Church Women’s Conference was all about how God makes us brave. This would be a good reminder to have.

5. 90% Cream Coffee Cup | Kenny jokes on me all the time about how I drink mostly cream, not coffee. So this cup is perfect for me.

6. Minted Branch Knotted Headband | I love this color if you can’t tell, but I also have been eyeing up headbands. I need something to change up my boring hair style.

    I love the 4 gifts idea, it means you get some things you need and somethings that just help with life that you often don't want to buy yourself!
