17Apart Holiday Gift Guide: 17 Gifts (Naughty or Nice!)

Each year we always ask our big kids to make and send a gift wish list before Thanksgiving so we can take advantage of the big sale weekend. It's one way we know we can get them something they really want and a few surprises while keeping on budget. This year, we've compiled a list of our favorite ideas to share. From those you know best to those that stump you every year, to unexpected hostess gifts and budget-friendly stocking stuffers — here's what we're loving (and buying!) this year.

And! Today many of these ideas are on super sale so you can stock up while staying on or below budget too.

That said, I wanted to shift gears and share a handful of finds that are currently catching my eye on Etsy in support of special, and those small businesses that aren't slowing down their creativity, hustle or grind... in celebration of all the things that can't be mass produced and while still a good value, their worth isn't driven by price.

Etsy Edit: Garden Vibes

The start of March is, without fail, the time of year we begin pining over garden plans. The weather begins to get a touch milder and we both itch to be outside — hands in the dirt. We look for signs of new life in our perennials and are dreaming up plans for the vegetable garden. While it'll be a few weeks before we can officially get started, this month's Etsy edit is dedicated to the spirit of all things lush, green and gardeny (that's a word, right?).
