‘Tis the season! I am so excited to introduce to ya’ll this year’s gift guide. This year is going to be a little different than last year’s as I’m sure this year has brought some unexpected challenges to gift-giving. I wanted to present options as I know there can be budget concerns. You can still give a great gift no matter how big or small your budget is. I have a couple of categories that I will then breakdown into budgets to help out any type of budget.
You can also check out last year’s gift guide for more options.
Gift Categories
- Customized Gifts
- DIYs
- Hobby
- Music Lovers
- Rave Clothing & Accessories
- Stocking Stuffers
Customized Gifts
Customized gifts are great to give something more personalized to someone. You can do something as simple as a face mask or more elaborate like a jersey or flag.

DIYs
DIYs are my favorite to put together. You can do a lot with festival memorabilia or other fun things that may make someone’s day. When in doubt, even making some kandi for someone can be a great gift.
