Hi everyone! I’m going through a divorce and barely able to make rent as it is. My family and friends know this but I feel awful receiving gifts with absolutely nothing to give in return.
I’m working on my own herbal tea/bath business so I give my loved ones quite enough teas as it is and they’re not really bath people. I was thinking of the following:
– holiday mugs I already have (unused) filled with deconstructed hot cocoa and homemade gingerbread cookies
– holiday, homemade potpourri/dried simmer pot ingredients
– a fairy terrarium with moss and stones
– homemade candles with recycled wax and reused jars (all cleaned and fresh essential oils added)Ideally I’d like to spend less than $20 per person.
Let me know what kind of ideas you have!

Those all sound great!

Witch balls!

A fairly popular series of gifts I’ve given my loved ones in the past were a set of “Blessings in a bottle” sort of tiny spell jars, usually with some pretty stuff to look at in them, like glitter and glow dust, along with the usual spell jar components, filled with moon water and holy oil. They’re cute, trinket-y little things that are also nicely witchy.

Smokable herb prerolls if they’re smokers? You’d have materials already

Spell ornaments. I saw someone make them on tiktok or you could coco bomb ornaments using those clear craft ornaments f
-
I’m doing pickles and bath scrubs! (And lil terrariums as well!)

If you are artistic, and have people who love to read on your list, you can make page savers.

Those sound like amazing gift ideas! I made necklaces for my step-mom and sister using crystals that I felt would go with their energy, as well as pendants of animals I felt represented them (my step-mom refers to hers as her spirit animal). If you have the materials you could make something similar, like witchy little accessories for your loved ones.

I’ve also given bundles of sage with small selenite wands tied onto them. You can order both from Amazon for pretty cheap and put them together yourself 🙂

I’m doing pressed ferns in dollar tree frames. Maybe with some calligraphy. I also have a giant tub of salt someone accidentally got me earlier in the year (I asked for salty chips from Costco) and I’m going to make some salt scrub with that. Last year I made rose petal milk bath. And I have an idea for a floral bath tea that I may or may not do.

If you already have materials for bath bombs, maybe try shower pucks? I made some last year for cold-and-flu season, and family loved them! I used orange, rosemary, eucalyptus, mint–basically anything to help someone with a stuffy nose. There are easy recipes on pinterest, I think the only item I had to buy were menthol crystals.

Last year, I made homemade salt-dough ornaments to give to family and friends. Baked goods are always one of my faves. You can get cheap bags, boxes, and ribbons to add your own personal touch! I’m sure whatever you chose to do will be well appreciated and loved!
-
all of those sound great already tbh. Perhaps building on the mugs ( personally my fa idea) add in home baked cookies with at least 1 or 2 different types or a jam or jelly homemade. Many people love homemade food! Good Luck!

I’m making car protection spell jars and individual witchballs or good luck, self love, prospective MOJO bags and little jar spells for my peeps. I’m broke myself this year. But we make sure all the little ones have a great Christmas.

Last yeah I made little homemade hampers. Second hand store.baskets, home made shortbread, rockyroad, little jams and caramel sauce. Not fully witchy but they were all greatly recieved. You can buy jars cheap at Kmart (or whatever you equivalent low end large retailer is) and of you a making it in bulk it can be as cheap as you want.
