[Gift Guide] Cheap Stuff (Under $25)

Unlike all of those other "cheap" gift guides, here are things you'll actually want to buy for other people. No lame-ass "fun" paperclips, tape dispensers shaped like fugly turtles or decorative wine bottle stoppers here. 

 

 

 teaspoons: glazed bone china dessert spoons are a thoughtful gift for the person who has everything or a wildly impractical one for the person who uses plastic silverware because they can't afford anything nicer. $24.

kuro cube: this Danish fridge refresher is made from coal, lasts for years and replaces that janky box of baking soda. $12.50.

ceramic diffuser: A change for the better from those sticks scent diffusers typically have. $16. 

seaside bag: Twee, but in a charming way. 10£

 medieval weapons thumbtacks: we all have one friend who's a total dork. $9.99.

postcarden: Garden + postcard = easiest gift ever for lazy people to give. You don't even have to buy a card or an envelope. $12.95

your new girlfriend stickers: you should really buy this. I mean, she is your new girlfriend. $8. 

owl sugar shaker: Fill it with sugar first and now it's two gifts in one. $14.

 

bud trap: Anyone with an iPod (everyone, obvs) has use for a little nub that prevents headphones from tangling. $5.95.

hummingbird feeder:  hummingbirds are basically the classiest birds around, so you'd never guess that this pretty glass feeder is under five bucks. $4.98.
