Holiday Gift Guide 2016 -- Gifts for the Jet Setter

Hubby and I love to travel and we are always trying to make our trips as easy and stress free as possible. We've traded in our big bags for carry-ons and love that we don't have to waste time waiting around for our bags. 

Do you have a someone with the travel bug on your gift list? 

Here are some gifts that are perfect for any jet setter!

1. Ticket Stub Diary

2. Luggage Scale 

3. Luggage Tag

4. Map of the World

5. Mini-mergency Kit

6. Passport Cover

7. Lo & Sons OG Bag

8. Kate Spade Weekender

9. Wrap Scarf

Are you giving someone the gift of travel this year? I found this super cute website that allows you to generate airline tickets. Wrap a plane ticket up with a monogrammed luggage tag for a truly heartfelt gift!

One week until Christmas Eve! Are you ready?

Holiday Gift Guide 2016: Stocking Stuffers for Her

Stockings are, hands down, my favorite part of Christmas morning. Growing up, the rule was that Kir and I were allowed to open our stockings as soon as we woke up. However, we weren't allowed to start opening our other presents until the whole family was awake and our parents had had at least one cup of coffee! 

My mom always filled our stockings with the cutest little things -- nail polishes, lotions, shower gel, pens, candles -- and I still, even as an adult, get excited over Christmas stockings! 

Here are some adorable little stocking stuffers for the ladies in your life...

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11

Graduation is right around the corner! I have a cousin graduating from 8th grade, another cousin graduating from high school, two friends who just finished up nursing school, and another friend who just got her teaching credential!

Three: Decorating your dorm room is so insanely exciting! These photo clips help your grad showcase memories and easily clip up new ones!

Four: Coffee! The official drink of college students everywhere! This cute coffee cup will help your grad stay awake in her 8 AM class!

Five: This journal chronicles the four years of college with a unique question everyday for four years!

Six: Personalized stationary is such a sweet gift! Pair it with an address book for friends and family to fill out during her graduation party so she can stay in touch!

Seven: Most college students take notes on their laptops. Help your grad stay studious by gifting her this fabulous laptop case!

Mother's Day Gift Guide 2016 -- Beauty and Bath

If your mom is anything like ours, she probably loves bath and beauty products, but won't splurge on them for herself. 

For this gift guide we are teaming up with Beauty Kind, a fabulous online beauty retailer that gives back 5% of the purchase price to the charity of the buyer's choice. How cool is that? :)

We love the fact that the charities range from larger charities, such as the United Way and the American Red Cross, to local charitable organizations like the San Antonio Zoo (for Meg) and the Bay Area Food Bank (for Kir). Plus, if you don't see a specific organization, you can request that your favorite cause be added to the list!

Here are some of our favorite products from Beauty Kind that will surely put a smile on Mom's face!

One | Two | Three

Four | Five | Six

Seven | Eight | Nine

We want to make shopping for Mom super easy this year, so Beauty Kind has offered Small Town Sisters readers a $50 gift code that can be used on purchases of $75 or more (plus, shipping is free!) That's $50 off your purchase of $75 or more! How great is that!?!

Use gift code "SISTERS" to receive your $50 gift code!

This mother's day, give Mom the gift of beauty and the knowledge that her gift is doing something good in return!

XOXO

Meg & Kir
