However, narrowing down all of the super cute and fun options to find the BEST great gift ideas they will want is the hardest part.

More gift guides for the entire family!

I have created several different gift guides, round ups of ideas, and curated shoppable posts to help you out!  As always, I like to have my family help me with these gift guides.  After all, who knows better than a teen girl what a teen girl wants for Christmas or in her stocking?!  Plus, I think it is a great idea to help me get Christmas lists for my own kids this way too!

I hope these help you out as you have fun finding just the right gift to let your people know how much you love them this holiday season!

Did you get a few special gifts checked off of your list?  I hope this was helpful!  You can check out my other gift guide posts, thoughtfully curated for you, found HERE on my storefront.  Check back often, as I daily add fun finds, sales, and curated, shoppable posts to try and make your holiday shopping as stress free as possible!

Remember, it is not the money amount that is important.  It’s not even about finding the most perfect gift or big gifts that don’t fit your budget.

What it IS all about is celebrating the holiday season for all of the right reasons and letting our teachers know how deeply appreciated they are!

Favorite gifts are icing on the cake and I hope this post has even helped you find a few of those for your favorite teacher or friend too!

Happy shopping and most of all, happy gifting from the heart!
