Holiday Gift Guide – Gifts for Men Under $100

Hello lovelies! Today on the blog I thought I’d post my second gift guide! This one is all about the men ladies! I asked over on my Instagram stories what gift guides you guys wanted and my most requested was one for men (wether dads or boyfriends). I’m thinking of doing a few of these, but to start out I wanted to do one with gift ideas under $50!

I rounded up nine awesome ideas that are perfect for anyone on a budget! Most of these items are actually under $40 even. I stuck with a very neutral theme as well because I know most people’s dads, brothers, and boyfriends don’t especially love bright pink or orange. Below is my Holiday Gift Guide – Gifts For Men Under $50! Be sure to shop the items below the photo and read along further for even more options to shop from!

Thermal Vest – Whether you live in Alaska or Georgia, a thermal vest is the perfect holiday gift for a man in your life! I know a lot of people in the South hunt and this is be the ideal vest to go under a camouflage jacket. This is also great for any business savvy men in your life as well! It’s just a great neutral option. I also have more linked below:

Bluetooth Headphones – Now I know bluetooth headphones are a pretty gender neutral thing, but I swear I never see millennial men without headphones! My boyfriend will lose his wallet but always have his headphones I swear. These are such a great gift option because they’re are so practical! That and they’re also very affordable which is great. I’ve rounded up some of the best options (ratings included):

Phone Case – Phone cases are also another practical gift! Most people aren’t as clumsy as I am, but it’s always good to have extra protection. I really loved the one above because it’s very mid-century modern to me. It’s masculine chic if that makes sense (we’re making this a thing now okay?). I have chosen some other great options that I think a dad or a boyfriend would love below:

Black/Brown Belt – I guess most “gifts for men” are practical life things. That being said, these are also the things they refuse to buy themselves (or so I’ve seen) so it makes sense! This is a closet staple for most people if we’re being honest, but what better way to show you care than to show you don’t want their pants to fall down in public am I right? I linked some great, affordable belt options below:

Baseball Hat – Hats are a staple in most men’s wardrobes. They’re perfect to throw on if your hair is a mess or if you just feel like wearing one. Some men actually don’t prefer wearing hats which is totally fine! That’s why I have a whole list of ideas. However, for the men that do prefer wearing them, here are some options below:

Bar Items – It’s a stereotypical dad thing to have a “man cave” or a “home bar area.” I figured adding some home bar items to this list would be a great idea! I threw in some 16-piece bar kits as well as a mule mug set. These are all awesome options that are under $50 which is awesome! Shop my picks below:

Travel Mug – For any man on the go (or camper) in your life, a travel mug is the perfect idea! Side-note: if you search “men travel mugs” all that pops up is travel mugs in neutral shades which is so lame. This is another awesome and affordable gift option for any on-the-go coffee loving man in your life. Add a gift card to his favorite coffee/food place inside as a surprise and you have the perfect gift! Anyways, I linked some great travel mug options below:

Slippers – Men like to have warm feet too y’all! Probably more than women if we’re being honest. I thought adding slippers to this list would be perfect because this time of year it’s a lot cooler even down south. My boyfriend is literally always cold and says I keep my apartment like an ice box, so if you also have a boyfriend, dad, or brother who hates cold weather and cold apartments, this is an awesome gift option! Shop some great slipper ideas below:

Bluetooth Speaker – This is also a pretty gender neutral thing, but I think you can’t go wrong with a bluetooth speaker! I got an EchoDot last Christmas and I used it sooo much.  Literally as I type this post! It’s awesome to use in the mornings when you’re running all over your room/apartment getting ready so you can hear your music regardless of where you’re at! I linked some from every price range (below $50 of course) so check them out below and see if you like any:


For all of the electronic items I wrote about in this post, I made sure they had at least a 4-Star rating for you guys! I never want to show you guys any items that I don’t feel will be great for whomever you’re purchasing for.

I hope you guys enjoyed this post and I hope my Holiday Gift Guide – Gifts For Men Under $50 helped your gift search! If you have any recommendations for other gift guides be sure to let me know! Check out my previous gift guide with Cozy Gifts Under $50 (link).

This is part 2 of my gifting series and I’m pretty stoked about it! You guys seemed to really want some ideas on this specific topic! I’m thinking for my next one of doing gifts under $100 so I can add in some watches and other more-expensive ideas. Let me know what you think!

DIY GIFT IDEAS PT.2 - DIY AIR DRY CLAY RING 💍 ⁣
⁣
I have been on an air dry clay kick for a while now, but one thing I have been wanting to make are rings! ⁣
⁣
This project takes almost no time and costs LESS THAN $10 PER RING! I highly recommend. ⁣
⁣
You can make a few rings + pair them with a new jewelry case as the perfect holiday gift! ⁣
⁣
Supplies (Linked in My Bio):⁣
✨Air Dry Clay⁣
✨Acrylic Paint⁣
✨Paintbrushes ⁣
✨Sandpaper ⁣
✨UV Glue (or Mod Podge)⁣
✨UV Light (Optional) ⁣
⁣
Steps:⁣
1️⃣ Make Clay Ring: Wrap the clay around your finger for the proper sizing. ⁣
2️⃣ Bake Ring: (You can let it dry naturally, but I prefer to use the oven) Place ring on parchment paper that is on top of a baking tray. Put tray into oven. Bake on 200° for as long as it takes for ring to dry out! ⁣
3️⃣ Smooth Out Ring: Use sandpaper to smooth out your ring and make it even all the way around.⁣
4️⃣ Seal Ring: You can 100% use Mod Podge, but I got a multi-pack of UV Glue that I have been loving more! ***MAKE SURE TO TAKE PROPER PRECAUTIONS WITH UV GLUE!!!***⁣

Pulse Check: How are you doing? Like *actually* ⁣⁣(Feel free to vent) 
⁣⁣
I personally am not doing well. And then what’s worse is that I feel like I don’t have the *right* to not be doing well when there are literal genocides happening across the globe. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
The past month and a half I have felt like I haven’t had enough hours in the day (an extra 3-5 hours daily would be perfect tbh). There’s too much to do, too much to plan, and so much work. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Having (technically) two jobs feels more taxing than normal even though I have less on my plate when it comes to content creation. Which I think is honestly adding to the stress.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Regardless, I feel like every day, I’m just trying to make it to the end of the day. To the next weekend. But it’s all going by so quickly I feel like I can’t catch my breath.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I’m not sure if you’ll read this ESSAY of a caption, but I want to be transparent with you. Because that’s what my platform is all about. I miss being open and honest on here.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
So if you feel this way too, know you’re not alone. And that I FEEL YOU. And I’m proud of you. ❤️⁣

DIY GIFT IDEAS PT.1 - POLKA DOT CANDLES 🎁⁣
⁣
This DIY took less than 20 minutes AND cost less than $30! I love colorful candlesticks, but you can also go with neutrals as well! Doing white candlesticks with black/brown polka dots would be cute too. ⁣
⁣
While it’s easy to just buy a set of candlesticks and holders, it’s nice to make them a bit more unique by adding designs or polka dots! ⁣
