How to Find the Perfect Gift for Any Occassion

I love giving people gifts. I know it’s super cliché, but I actually like giving gifts more than I like receiving them. And one of the best feelings in the world is stumbling upon the perfect gift that just instantly reminds you of someone (I already have my sister’s Christmas gift bookmarked on Etsy).

But sometimes it’s hard to find that extra special something for that extra special someone, especially when you’re pressed for time. Well, luckily for you (and me!), there’s a company out there dedicated to helping you become the best gift-giver of all time.

I’d like to introduce Two Pretzels, a Philly-based curated gift box company that’s all about celebrating the best (and worst) moments in life. Birthdays, engagements, breakups, promotions, pregnancies, bad days, you name it, Two Pretzels has a uniquely curated box for it. The masterminds behind Two Pretzels were kind enough to gift me their “Good Times & Tan Lines: Summer Seasonal” box which has the most amazing & sassy essentials to party all the way through Labor Day.

12 Stocking Stuffers Under $12

Full disclosure: I’m absolutely awful at shopping for gifts. Giving gifts is one of my most favorite things to do, but I’m terrible at going to the mall during the holiday season and finding that perfect something for that special someone. Instead, I’m the girl who finds a gift in April for her best friend/sister/mom/boyfriend/cousin and buys it on the spot, only to keep it until Christmas–sometimes spilling the surprise beforehand.

Hence why I wanted to create a gift guide, for anyone out there like me who can’t think of any appropriate gift ideas as soon as December hits. Whether you’re shopping for your co-workers, best friends or current roommates, I’ve got 12 cute & Christmasy stocking stuffers that won’t break your bank. Happy shopping!
