Gifts Under $50

Style Overview

A great gift doesn't need a big number behind it! Our gifts under $50 cover so much happy ground: graphic tees and sweatshirts with feel-good sayings, scarves and hats for crisp fall mornings, and our famous Boho Bandeau® for the friend who lives in accessories. Pillows, throws and blankets bring happy artwork right onto the couch. Shopping for a whole list? Our sweet little gifts under $30 keep every name covered.

Gift Pairings

Some presents are wonderful on their own, and some get even better with a buddy! We're big believers in the pairing, because the artwork already ties everything together. Two smaller picks often land bigger than one splurge, and they're twice as fun to open.

A few of our favorite duos:

  • A mug and a candle for anyone who loves a slow morning or a cozy wind-down evening. It's the classic combo for a reason!
  • A journal and a graphic tee for your creative friend. She gets wearable inspiration plus a place to write it all down.
  • A blanket and a pillow for the homebody who's turned her couch into headquarters. Together they make holiday movie night feel like an event.
  • A scarf and a hat for the one who's always chilly. Bundle them and she's set from first frost to spring.
  • A candle and a journal for the self-care queen. Light one, write in the other, and her evening routine just got an upgrade.

Want more mix-and-match ideas? Our full guide to gifting for every budget makes bundling ridiculously easy. It's the little things... like a pair that feels like it was made for her.

Who It’s For

This is the page we send people to when they say "I have no idea what to get her." A candle or a mug suits the teacher, the coworker and the neighbor who watched your dog over Thanksgiving. A journal fits the dreamer, the planner and the friend starting a new chapter in the new year. Sweatshirts and tees work for anyone who loves comfort with a message, which in our experience is everyone!

For the women closest to you, this price range hits a sweet spot. It's generous enough to feel special and easy enough to grab one for your sister while you're at it. We keep our favorites for moms, grandmas and the whole family stocked with picks that get happy tears at birthdays and holidays alike.

Still can't decide? Choose the design that made you smile first. That instinct is almost never wrong... and it makes a long holiday list feel sooo much lighter.

Wrap & Surprise

The reveal deserves as much thought as the gift, so we made the wrapping part easy, too. Skip the tape and scissors and tuck your picks into one of our colorful Happy Bags, which are so cute they count as part of the present. Layer in some tissue, add a handwritten note, and you're done in about two minutes flat.

For a bigger moment, build a little unboxing story. Put the smallest surprise at the top, let her dig down to the blanket or sweatshirt at the bottom, and watch the smile grow with every layer. We're obsessed with this trick for birthdays and Christmas morning, and it works just as well shipped across the country as handed over at brunch.

A treasure she can unwrap slowly is a memory, not just a package. So slow down, stack it up and enjoy the fun part!

FAQs

What kinds of gifts can I find here?

So much! This page spans cheerful mugs, candles, journals, blankets, throws and pillows for her home, plus graphic tees, sweatshirts, scarves and hats she can actually live in. Every pick carries our hand-illustrated artwork and a feel-good message, so even the simplest choice feels personal. It's a one-stop spot whether you need one standout present or a small pile of them for the holidays.

What should I get for someone I don't know very well?

Go with a mug or a candle. Both are warm, useful and hard to get wrong, and the uplifting quote on each one carries the sentiment when you don't know her well enough to write it yourself. A journal is another safe bet for coworkers, teachers and office gift exchanges. When in doubt, pick the design with a message that fits the occasion, and it'll read as thoughtful.

What if I want to spend a little more?

We love a good reason to splurge! When the occasion calls for something bigger, browse our favorite picks under $100 for roomier blankets, bundles and statement-making home treasures. A fun middle path is pairing one hero present from that range with a smaller surprise from this one, so she gets a big wow plus a sweet extra to open.

How do I care for the blankets, tees and sweatshirts?

Easy does it. For most of our fabric treasures, machine wash on a gentle cycle in cold water, then tumble dry on low or lay flat to keep colors bright. Always check the care label first, since a few designs prefer extra-gentle handling. A little care keeps the artwork looking as lovely as the day she unwrapped it under the tree.

How can I make a smaller present feel extra special?

Presentation and words, every time! Tuck it into a Happy Bag, add tissue, and write a real note about why the design made you think of her. You can also stack two or three tiny picks together so there's more to open. The price tag never shows, but the thought always does, and that's what she'll remember long after the season.
