I know it’s early, but with recent reports of severe mail delays, now is the time when you want to get your Christmas shopping started.
If you’re looking for gift ideas for all of those “hard-to-buy-for” people in your life – look no further! I’ve done the shopping for you to compile a “100 Christmas gift ideas” list for just about everyone in your life!

This blog post took a looooong time to put together. I polled friends and family, surfed the internet, went shopping and even looked up as many (affiliate) links as I could so that you could get all of your Christmas shopping done from the comfort of your home!
My goal was to create at least 100 Christmas gift ideas (there’s actually 112 here!) that could be packaged up together, but still stay under $100 for all the items combined – so you won’t find Beats headphones or power tools etc – but you should be able to remain within a reasonable budget. I tried to select links that were given above-average consumer ratings, which sometimes meant that the price was more than other, similar items – so there certainly are more and less expensive options available. Hopefully though, you will be able to find an item that impresses you enough to be somebody’s Christmas gift.
Add an item, remove an item, shop at Nordstrom’s, HomeGoods or the Dollar store – it’s totally up to you!
I made a point to refrain from “drug store baskets” like lotions & soaps or coffees & chocolates – I figured these are already pre-made and easily available if that’s what you want. I mean how hard is it to look up chocolate gift ideas? My “100 Christmas gift ideas” list includes items you might not have thought of, but would make any recipient smile. (I didn’t include gift ideas for small children – toys are a safe bet, but I have no idea which toys go with which ages, so I’ll leave that happy hunting to you.)
I won’t lie – I found more than a few things to add to my Christmas wish list this year as well – check out the adorable pin cushion under “Sewer”, or the world map corkboard under “Tween/Teen”. The one-size cardigan cape under “For her” is fantastic because it’s one-size-fits-all and a cozy addition to any winter wardrobe. When buying meats, cheeses or crackers for gifts under “Host/hostess”, make sure to shop local to get the best quality and freshest options. Try and make the gift something they can use in their everyday life if you can.
As always – try to buy local and help support makers in your community.
The 100 Christmas gift ideas list is available as a free printable and is also at the bottom of this post so you can pin it and refer back year after year! (PLEASE share it?!!)
