Small does not have to mean throwaway. Under $15 is the budget for stocking fillers, Secret Santa, a thank you tucked into a card, or something to add to a bigger gift so it feels finished.
This edit keeps to things that stand on their own: a faux stem that lasts for years, a perfume oil sample vial to try a new scent, Good Change dish cloths and brushes for the kitchen, a soft toy, a notebook, or a card from Emma Kate Co. Every piece was chosen for having an option under $15.
If you have a little more room, our gifts under $50 open up candles, journals and fragrance.
What makes a good Secret Santa gift under $15?
Something useful or lasting rather than a novelty. A faux stem for a vase, a two pack of Swedish dish cloths or a perfume oil sample vial will actually get used.
Can small gifts be wrapped?
Yes. Gift wrapping is complimentary, so even a small gift arrives ready to give.
