On The 12th Day of Christmas My True Love Gave To Meeeeee….Uh Nothing?!

    So J Culture fans, it’s Christmas. This is a wonderful time of giving where we get the distinct pleasure of getting our close friends and family awesome gifts. Afterall what gives greater joy than to see someone else with a smile on their face that we put there? The goal is to get someone something awesome that they would love! Only problem is…WHAT?!!! Sometimes it can be hard to shop for the people we love. It can be even harder when there is a budget set in place for whatever the reason may be. So this Holiday Special Spectacular will give you five gifts that will make awesome Christmas presents for your dear loved ones.

   

   Is holiday shopping giving you a headache? Well allow J Culture to lend you a helping hand. After all, it is better to give than to receive and J Culture loves to give! This is especially the case when that giving is in the realm of helpful advice. The difficult thing to do when buying for someone else is imaging whether that gift will need to come with a receipt so that they can return it the next day! The dread of buying a sweater or a eccentric center piece that may be returned is something we all want to avoid. A helpful hint in gift shopping is to stay away from artwork. Artwork is incredibly awesome; however it is one of those things that come down to individual taste. It is best to be purchased or picked out by the recipient. So unless that person has left you every hint known to man, complete with pictures in the windshield and Polaroid’s taped to the back of a cereal box then you best stay away! Clothing is also a touchy subject. It always comes down to style, taste and size.  Unless you know that person extremely well and you have impeccable taste in clothing, you may want to steer clear of buying articles of clothing as presents. So what’s left, well look below…here are some great choices!

1. Bath and Body Works Splish Splash Gift Set: Most people don’t buy a whole set of scented bath  essentials on their own. Things like this are mostly great for gifts. It is also a great gift for those you know that like a light scent. Body sprays, lotions and shower gels can provide a fresh scent without becoming too overpowering!  Only $30 at Bath and Body Works!  http://www.bathandbodyworks.com/

 2.A great gift from budgetless for a person who loves to read is the Kindle 3g Wireless Reading Device from Amazon. Kindles are amazing because it is an electronic book. Remember when you were little and fairy tales would involve a magic book with empty pages and once opened you can ask to see any story you want? Well the Kindle will upload any novel or article you would like to read and store it. Instead of having to lug around several books that you would like to read, you could just carry one easy light weight device. Other cool features are touch of a button page turning and a screen that lights up to make it easier to read! Find this cool little gadget at Amazon.com for $139.00 

3.Gift Cards: Gift Cards are an awesome gift for the hard to shop for individual. It is possible for you to know a persons favorite place without having a clue of knowing what you could buy them that wouldn’t involve them taking it back. Some people think of money and gift cards as impersonal gifts. However, a lot of people love them because it saves them money. They may want to buy something one day out of their favorite store, or eat at their favorite restaurant and not spend their own money. This gift will save you a headache, and your loved one money! Most places will sell a cute little gift card container that can be  wrapped as a present. These tiny, light weight gifts also can be a cool stocking stuffer!                                                                                                                                                                                  
                                                   

4.Accesories: I haven’t met a person yet who couldn’t use more accessories. Accessories can make an ordinary outfit extraordinary. It can also give an outfit a totally different look! We have a few accessories that are haute this season. You could try shoulder bags or pairing ankle socks with oversized accessories. Animal printed accessories can spruce up a conventional outfit, also furs and knits (knitted accessories, accessories with knitted embellishments, or clothing that is knitted or with knitted embellishments) are a haute commodity for this winter season. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

                                        

5.Have a man in your life? You can never go wrong with sports paraphernalia! It is no secret that most men are die hard sports fans. So if you know his favorite sporting team, then how about finding some of the teams paraphernalia.
