5 Last Minute Christmas Gift Ideas

Christmas is right around the corner – yay! This time of year is so special and I can’t wait to celebrate both with our little family and extended family. I’m psyched for days and days of celebration if I’m being honest 🙂

This year I was organized but trust me I’ve done last minute shopping for years, so I get it! You need something that ships fast OR you can get in store. Plus you don’t have time to think of something and you need some guidance – I feel ya. Here are 5 gifts you can gift to (virtually) anyone and a lot of stores that stock them!


Hit up a local small business for some unique gifts! I wish I had planned ahead more and focused on shopping small for all my gifts this year – I think that will be one of my goals next year. Anyways, I love hitting a favorite store for that special gift you won’t find online. Here are some of my favorites in Lexington and the Twin Cities:

Jeff Ruby's Bar

When in doubt, snag a restaurant gift card! Who doesn’t love a dinner at your favorite place?

Man, woman and child – everyone in our house is obsessed with our Dyson cordless vacuum. It gets used 3+ times a day! (Basically whenever we eat…) It might be funny to gift a vacuum but trust me, it will change your life. Here are places you can buy it depending on if you need it in store or you have time to get it shipped:

And yes I’m wearing my Barefoot Dreams robe in the picture above – also a great gift!!!


Everyone loves a Patagonia pullover or vest. My dad and husband both have the men’s version and love them, and I LOVE this vest for women! Ok also how adorable is this version for kids! You can find them in store at Nordstrom or REI.


It’s getting pretty cold where I am, and I can’t live without my cozy slippers! A great pair of slippers would make a super perfect Christmas gift. Unless you live someplace super warm, you gotta keep those toes cozy and warm.

For him // For her // For kids


Good luck with those last minute gifts! Happy Shopping!
