The turkey and stuffing has been cleared from the table, and the holiday season is officially upon us! White Elephant gift exchanges are a great way to get your friends and family together and exchange gifts, without having to break the bank. Sometimes, though, it can be tough to think of gifts that will make all your guests happy. Here to help are twelve gift ideas that will fit the fancy of all your different friends and family (and also won't break the bank)!
1. Hot Chocolate Set
Hot cocoa is a universally loved winter drink. These sets often include hot cocoa, marshmallows, and candy canes. You can get them pre-made or make one yourself for a more personal touch! Who wouldn't enjoy a fresh cup of cocoa?
2. Board Games
A family game night staple for decades, board games are the perfect addition to any gift exchange. Some classics include Clue, Monopoly, and Sorry, while the more adult crowd may enjoy card games, such as Cards Against Humanity.
3. Gift Cards
Who doesn't love a good gift card? It basically gives you an excuse to treat yourself! Some shops that are loved by all include Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, Marshalls, Best Buy, and of course, Amazon.
4. Blankets
There's nothing like curling up in a big fuzzy blanket on a chilly winter night.
5. Holiday Cookies
This is a win win situation. You can make some festive cookies to bring holiday cheer to your friends and family, and you can keep the extras for yourself!
6. Travel Hammock
Travel mocks are popping up all over. They are portable and comfortable, and you can get them for cheap at Walmart or Amazon!
7. A Good Book
Whether its a holiday themed book or just one of your favorites, a good book is always a great gift that anyone will enjoy
8. Movie Basket
For all the movie lovers out there, you know what the essentials are for every viewing: a movie (obviously), some popcorn and candy, and a drink or two. Put these all in a cute basket, and you've got a fabulous gift!
9. Socks
Now, I know what your thinking, socks...really? However, I'm not saying that you pick up a six pack of Hanes socks. I'm talking about the super cool, funky patterned socks with pictures of things like avocados, sushi, and ducks.
10. Customized Mug
Look up sharpie mugs, and you've got the perfect present.
11. Ornaments
A cute ornament makes an awesome addition to any Christmas tree and will be a cute reminder of your holiday get together.
12. Succulents
Succulents are the perfect way to brighten up a room. Friends and family will be fighting for who gets to take home these cute plants.
So, there you have it. These are some fun gift ideas to satisfy your loved ones at your White Elephant gift exchanges this season! Happy Holidays everyone!
