Believe it or not, there are quite a few cute stocking stuffers on Amazon. Yes, you’ll have to do a bit of digging to find the best of the best items out there, especially since the giant e-tailer sells just about everything under the sun. But, as someone who is quite a picky shopper, I’m here to reassure you that it is possible to find chic, affordable gifts on the website.
For instance, I unearthed a Jonathan Adler puzzle for $38. It’ll make for a great coffee table accessory or a fun activity for the entire family to enjoy. I also found an embossed faux leather card holder that can be customized with the recipient’s initials. It looks like a million bucks but only costs $15. And, of course, there are plenty of covetable beauty items that can be thrown into a holiday stocking, from Dae’s nourishing hair oils to Sol De Janeiro’s viral yummy-smelling creams.
Find all of the editor-approved stocking stuffers on Amazon, below. And while you’re at it, go ahead and treat yourself to a little something too. I won’t tell.
