Clutter-free Gift Guide

The holidays can be stressful. Meals to prepare for, decorations to put up, and meet-ups to plan. Add gifting into the mix and it’s no wonder we’re often exhausted on the day we’re supposed to be enjoying ourselves. We know that putting thought into the perfect gift is hard, but have you ever been overwhelmed when receiving gifts too?

Maybe your kids have too many toys but your Aunt keeps buying them more. Or perhaps you received something too quirky for your tastes, but also feel too guilty to get rid of it or give it away? 

Online shopping has made it dangerously easy to shop excessively and uncontrollably, overcrowding our homes with clutter.

Before buying a physical gift, it might be a good idea to ask your loved ones what they need or want. There’s no shame in buying something they truly need, even if it’s diapers or toothpaste!
