Shop Local ATL: Gifts under $100

I hope everyone had an absolutely fantastic Thanksgiving! We're spending today driving from one family to the other to enjoy round two (and probably three and four) of stuffing ourselves silly. Can't wait! 

Today I'm bringing you the final installment of my Shop Local ATL gift guides. These gifts are all under $100. While today's price point is a little higher than the other two guides, these are the gifts that are great for family members, significant others, and even close friends. Even better? A majority of these gifts don't ever meet the $100 threshold. See? I'm looking out for you this season. Enjoy today's guide, and don't forget to let me know if there are other ideas you'd like to see. Finding gifts is one of my favorite things to do. 

1. Apolis + Clare V. Market Bag ($68): Every farmer's market shopping girl could use a fabulous market bag to carry home her spoils. This fashionable one by Apolis in partnership with Clare V. has me saying "Mais, oui!" 

2. Flordeliza Passport Leather Holder ($100): I love the idea of gifting a passport holder to a future college freshman or college senior. It's a little twist on the whole "oh the places you will go" concept. Of course, this little luxury makes a great gift for just about anyone. Splurge the extra $15 for the monogram to make it even more special. 

3. Stewart Simmons Collegiate Holiday Box ($78): Speaking of college students (or college students at heart), how cute is this collegiate holiday box?! There's one for almost every Southern school you can think of. 

4. Karen Adams Designs 2017 Agenda ($54 - includes shipping): This is more of a regional gift, but I had to share it with you. As you know, I adore Karen Adams Designs, and this planner is absolutely stunning in person. And the packaging?! A total win. Stay tuned for more details next week! 

5. Trina Turk Pouch ($58): Alright, I'm stretching it a little here, too, but what southern gal doesn't love punchy Trina Turk? This cosmetics pouch is the perfect holiday home for all of your glittery eyeshadows and red lipsticks. 

Uncommon Mother's Day Gifts Under $75

Just in case you need a little reminder: Mother's Day is right around the corner...next weekend, actually! Buying for mom can be rather...challenging. Let's face it: moms have everything, and for the moms who don't, they always say they don't need anything which only further complicates the gift giving process. 

I love finding gifts for people that are difficult to buy for (ahem, looking at you, Mom) at unique stores which is why I love perusing Uncommon Goods. Uncommon Goods is marketplace for emerging designers to showcase their work; I especially love the stories behind almost every item. 

Calming Eye Pillow // Wine Towel // Heart Umbrella // Cheese Board // Personalized Family Art // Seed Keeper // Dogwood Necklace // Water Bottle

Uncommon Goods has tons of uncommon gifts for the uncommon mom. Bonus: All of the above gifts are under $75 which makes Mother's Day shopping even better.  

Be sure to keep Uncommon Goods on your radar for spring and summer gift giving. They have great Baby Shower Gifts, Father's Day Gifts (save this for later), and personalized gifts for birthdays and beyond. Consider your presents purchased. 

Quick and Easy Hostess Gifts

We've spent a lot of time traveling here and there this summer, and many of our friends and family have been gracious enough to host us. One of the things that I try to do is bring (or ship a few days later) a small token of our appreciation. A lot of work goes into hosting: there's laundry & cleaning, research on what to do with guests, and of course offering your home to someone. Bringing a little something to the host or hostess is a great gesture. 

I love keeping little gifts on hand that can be used for hostess gifts at any time. My current favorite on-hand items are paper coasters & gift tags that can be mixed and matched in cute ways for your hosts, depending on the occasion. I get mine from Matrick and Eve which has a fabulously versatile collection that you can use for exactly this reason. I especially love their wine bottle tags; they come 6 to a pack which means 6 quick and easy hostess gifts! 

Slip a tag on a bottle by itself, or wrap it in some cellophane along with a set of matching gold foil coasters for an extra special gift. Paper coasters and wine are a party staple, so they make the perfect combination for anyone hosting a dinner party or other gathering. Be sure to stock up on this stuff now before fall rolls around, and we slip right into holiday parties (fewer days until Christmas than you think ;)). 

Thanks to Matrick and Eve for partnering with me for this post. While I received some of the products seen here and compensation for this post, all opinions and ideas are my own.
