Stocking Stuffers Under $30

November 21, 2020

Happy Saturday! It’s wild how quickly Thanksgiving is approaching. I have a short but hectic week coming up, and I know it’s going to feel like I blink and the holiday season is upon us. With this in mind, I’ve gotten a head start on my Christmas shopping. I find that checking off my list early makes the lead-up to December 25 less stressful and more enjoyable. To help you get a head start on your holiday shopping, too, I’m sharing a roundup of stocking stuffers under $30. I will caveat that although this guide is classified as stocking stuffers, many of the items would be wonderful stand-alone gifts as well. It truly is the thought, rather than the dollar amount, that counts.

Editor’s Note: If you are looking for presents above the $30 price point, check out the Christmas Gifts for Her guide.

Without further ado, here is the curated guide of stocking stuffers under $30 (yay!):

ONE | Monogram oyster shell ring dish, Oldline Oysters. Right out of the gate, I have to disclose that this is the one gift in the guide that is slightly over $30. Despite the price, I wanted to include the ring dish because it’s the perfect size to go in a stocking. Also, I love that Oldline Oysters’s vintage monogram designs are inspired by etchings from the 1880s. When you place your order, they send you numerous monogram options from their extensive collection.

TWO | Leopard square silk scarf, J. Crew. This stocking stuffer is perfect for anyone that considers leopard a neutral. Keep an eye out for the frequent J. Crew sales that put this scarf under $30.

THREE | Flamingo tassel earrings, The Tiny Tassel. Everything from The Tiny Tassel is adorable (check them out on Instagram if you need proof)! I personally own and love the Rainbow Row headband. Another bonus of buying gifts from The Tiny Tassel is that you’re supporting a small, female- and black-owned business.

FOUR | Facial cooling globes, Sephora. Any beauty fanatic or skincare junkie is sure to love these. You keep the globes in the fridge and then use them to massage your face for a cool, refreshing sensation.

FIVE | Mini blush, Nars (shade: Orgasm). This blush boasts a cult following. You can’t go wrong with the mini version when stuffing stockings this year.

SIX | HRH: So Many Thoughts. If there’s someone royal-obsessed on your list, this is the gift for them. In the book, veteran fashion journalist Elizabeth Holmes analyzes the meaning behind the fashion choices of four members of the contemporary royal family: Queen Elizabeth II, Princess Diana, Kate Middleton, and Meghan Markle. Her analysis is paired with stunning photography of the women’s most iconic moments. This gift would be a beautiful topper for any coffee table book stack.

SEVEN | Press for Champagne ornament, Etsy. I think one of the best things on Christmas morning is an unexpected, fun stocking stuffer. This item fits that bill. It can be hung as an ornament or displayed on its own. How cute would it be on a bar cart?

EIGHT | Knotted headband, Amazon. I get compliments every time I wear this headband. It comes in a variety of colors and, even better, is under $8!

NINE | Getaway notecard set, Gray Malin. In a year of staying put, this travel-themed notecard set from photographer Gray Malin will strike a chord for those with wanderlust.

TEN | Airpods case, Lilly Pulitzer. This vibrant case is sure to help the recipient keep track of their wireless headphones. Also, at $16, it’s a cuter and more affordable option than many other protective Airpod cases on the market.

ELEVEN | Leftovers 3-Piece Container Set, Katie Kimmel x Urban Outfitters. I saw these plastic containers and simultaneously laughed and felt guilty as charged. They’d make fun surprise or gag gift!

TWELVE | Mini Bean Boot keychain, LL Bean. This is an item that brings me joy year after year when I slip it onto my keychain each autumn. Any prep or Bean Boot fanatic is sure to love it just as much as I do.
