2014 Gift Guide

Only 9 Christmas Shopping Days left! For those of you still trying to get your Christmas shopping done this week, I have put together and awesome 2014 gift guide for those people that are on your list that you still are stumped with at what to get them.

First is a gift great for any woman but it also works especially well for those diaper bag toting moms.

The QuintEssential Mommy Carryall is a handy organizer that fits in almost any handbag or diaper bad, ensuring there is a place for everything.

The outside is made with seven pockets of varying sizes for storing creams, lotions, and more, while inside there is a larger pocket for diapers and wipes, two smaller pockets, one secure zipped pocket, and two elastic pockets for holding bottles or cups. Best of all, it’s completely machine washable and is equipped with water resistant linings in order to protect that favorite handbag from juice accidents and spills. Preparing for a day out is as simple as zipping up the carryall, dropping it in a purse or diaper bag, and walking out the door! They have some other product too that you may want to check out.

Next is this subscriptions service for any young budding chef.

Kidstir has monthly hands-on kitchen kits. Kids get to build their own cookbooks, try new foods, and learn all about where food comes from. They also will gain important life skills in the kitchen—and cook up some fun family memories! Each comes with 3 recipes along with some items to make those recipes.

This next gift will work for just about anybody. Did you know you can buy Redbox rentals as a gift!

Just about anybody can get to a Redbox machine to rent a movie. So give them the gift of entertainment. The gift cards start at $10. Or you can purchase on their website  rental codes in bundles of 5, 10, 20 or 50.  You order them online and they are emailed. You can have them emailed directly to the person or you just enter your own email address in the recipient space and you’ll receive an email with all the codes listed! Then you can write the individual code on a card or gift tag. This works great as a neighbor gift and I found a great printable to use at Over the Big Moon. You can even include a bad of microwave popcorn and some soda!

You can always give food! I have a whole collection of 75 gifts that you can give from the kitchen. Some even include pintables to make your life even easier!

My cookbooks are always a good option too! There is the great Christmas Desserts: Tis the Season, Warm Up Your Winter, or Real Mom Kitchen cookbooks. You can give the actual books or the Kindle version.

Any cook will also LOVE this Nordic Ware baking sheer with lid.

I personally have 2 and LOVE them. It is $16.99 on Amazon or Sam’s Club has a set right now (pictured above) that includes a high rimmed pan also for about the same price.

For the music lover, I recommend Idina Menzel’s Holiday Wishes.

I think everyone pretty much knows who Idina Mezel is now thanks to Frozen and her holiday album is a great addition to any holiday collection. I especially love the Baby It’s Cold Outside duet with Michael Buble. There is a cute printable to go with this over at Eighteen25.

The Tile is also an awesome gift for just about anybody!

If they are prone to loose item and have a smart phone, this is THE gift for them. The guys you came up with this are geniuses.  Watch the video above to see how awesome it is and it cost $25 for 1 or get discounts for buying more than 1.

If the person you are shopping for likes fashion, then Stitch Fix may make the perfect gift.

I have received #18 shipments from them and really enjoy each time I get a box sent to me. Check out my experience with my shipments.

Last is dining gift cards. I think most people are happy to have a night out.

Many restaurants have deals with purchasing gift cards. Freebies2Deals has put together a great list. You can also get discounted gift cards to restaurants at Costco and Sam’s Club. You can save about 10-20% at this time of year. I got some at Costco for some of the people on my list. I picked some up for some of our favorite restaurants that we like to go to to have to use during the year.

Disclosure: I was sent a QuintEssential Mommy Carryall to review for this post. I also get credit for referrals if you choose to try Stitch Fix .
