The Christmas holidays is extremely stressful for people who are already struggling with isolation due to COVID.

Many families will not be gathering traditionally for Christmas dinner for the first time in YEARS.

Last Minute stocking stuffers

  I’m trying to figure out if things are going to fast or too slow right now. Either way it all seems like a blur!! More than half the people I polled on Instagram told me that they have their Christmas gift’s already. Personally, I feel like there will be a lot of gift cards being given. Which is good but we all will miss the personable part of wrapping and filling out Christmas cards. But stocking stuffers always good add on! I always make sure that I have a few stocking stuffers personalized for each person! They don’t even have to be super expensive! 

Some you can even pick up from your local drugstore!
