You can get Orbit Wintermint 3 pack or Orbit Spearmint 3 pack for less than $1 for a 3-pack = .33 each! These make great stocking stuffers, church youth gifts, teen gifts (to go with the InkJoy pen deal from yesterday – it is still going!), or just to stock up on for your family ♥
Here’s what to do:
Add Orbit Wintermint 3 pack and/or Orbit Spearmint 3 pack to your cart. I put 10 of each in my cart for gifts! It will automatically take 40% off plus 25% off at checkout.

Such a great deal and will get here in plenty of time for gift-giving!
I also whipped up a printable to go with the Orbit gum if you would like to use it – it’s one of my favorites. ♥ Also, here is 4 to a page.
Happy Shopping!
Hello! I switched up the porch this year – usually we go with the traditional red but I figured there was enough red inside so we went with green, black, and white. Just as I began taking pictures it started snowing!
I got this door at a Habitat for Humanity store when we first moved here. I painted it red and white and have used it on every Christmas porch since! I flipped it over and used the wood side. I did have to sand the edges because I was not very careful with the red paint. Chalkboard paint did the trick on the section with a simple nativity outline in chalk and the two prints are from an Etsy shop – you can find the For Unto Us print here and His name shall be called print here
I always use the frosted globe lights on the tree – I have always gotten them at Target but I think they only sell the LED’s now. But it looks like you can still buy them on Amazon – I’ll probably keep using them until they all burn out.
The lanterns and Have Yourself sign were from previous years Target dollar spots, the black/white checked bucket was from Michael’s this year. The jingle bell wreath was years ago from TJ Maxx. Greenery is just random from who knows where. The black and cream ribbon was actually webbing in the fabric department at Hobby Lobby.
The pine pillow was from a local store and the throws were $13.99 at Target in November so I grabbed them. They are so pretty for display but they are lightweight and snag easily so for practicality I probably wouldn’t recommend them. But black and cream stripe with tassels gets me every time. ♥
H&M Home is still my go-to for inexpensive pillow covers. These green ones were $5.99
I’ve had the It’s a Wonderful Life since we lived in Idaho – forever! The lanterns seem to appear in every single porch whether it’s summer or winter. Inside are the awesome Costco battery operated lights I share on my Insta stories in September. They just automatically come on at 5 every night and shut off at 11. The topiaries are from a local shop called Tai Pan – I’ve had them for years too. I found the olive buckets in the 80% off summer clearance at Michael’s when I was getting Christmas stuff there! A green locker basket with fairly lights and pinecones (from a local park!) is below.
I shared these jute baskets in my favorite things this year – they work anywhere! Trees are from Michael’s, the little green truck was actually part of the fall dollar spot stuff and was marked way down. The Joy sign was a dollar spot I think from last year, the wood stars were left over from my wreath, and that is a black and cream scarf I just folded up.
I am going to enjoy this winter wonderland from INSIDE now! ♥ Thanks for coming over.
AND a few deals from today that I wanted to make sure you saw:
- I shared the crazy good deal Wal-mart has on their Better Homes & Gardens 7 piece frame set on my Instastories. Here is the direct link at Wal-mart to buy online or you can check your store – I’ve have reports of people finding them for $3 (Idaho), $5 (Kentucky) and some were still stuck in-store at $20. So great for gallery walls, ancestor walls, or use individually as gifts or used around the house!

One of the top questions I get is: what should I get a teenage girl?? Well, I have an in-house expert so I asked her to write a post on fun gift ideas. Please welcome my Hailey girl – she loves Rice Krispie treats, running, reading, playing and teaching piano, beating everyone at card games, and keeping us up on all of the shopping trends.
Hi, I’m Hailey! I’m 16 years old, and I even got input from my friends for some ideas, too, so hopefully that’s credible. :) My mom will add in the links and all of the technical stuff.
* Thread Wallets!
These stretchy wallets are so great because they’re small & compact, super cute, and easily portable if you attach them to a lanyard. I looooove mine and wear it everywhere.
* Scrunchies
These are so great because of their practicality and style. I love the ones with a small accent tie/bow, but I also wear my solid color ones almost every day. I also see velvet scrunchies and patterned scrunchies everywhere as well. Scrunchies are perfect to wear in a ponytail because they don’t leave those annoying dents in your hair, but they also look good just hanging out on your wrist. These hair ties are also super cute for tying around a ponytail or as a hairband.
* Makeup
You cannot go wrong with giving girls new mascara or eyeshadow. Some of my favorite makeup products are:
- Revlon eyelash curler
- Eyeshadow Pallete
- Pink Covergirl mascara
- NYX lipgloss
- 24 hour Maybelline foundation
Along with this, a cute makeup bag is also great to gift.
* Simple Charm Necklaces or Bracelets
They seem to go with everything! I love Pura Vida anything because of the color pop and cute charms they have.
A simple necklace is always a great idea as well.
* Chapstick
I lovelovelove Burt’s Bees, but eos (my favorite is sweet mint) are always great.
* Tiny Wet Brush
These are so great because they’re so easy to fit in a small backpack or purse, and are perfect to bring traveling. Not to mention, they’re adorable ♥
* Perfume/Lotion
Bath and Body works is the perfect place for this; you can never go wrong with Twisted Peppermint, Thousand Wishes, At the Beach, or Beautiful Day. Honestly any scent from Bath and Body smells amazing!
* Fun socks!
Socks can be so cute and so comfy, and everyone loves them. My favorites are boot or bootie socks or just fun socks with patterns--or even fuzzy socks to wear when it’s freezing outside.
* Water Bottles
I take one with me every day! My aunt and uncle just gave me a hydroflask – they are super popular right now, keep your drinks cold/hot and there is not condensation. Everyone loves to put stickers on them to personalize them – I love this store that has Dunder Mifflin and a lot of fun ones or maybe a favorite national park? I also love the Contigo Auto-Spout.
* Nail Polish
OPI and Essie nailpolish have lots of great neutral and colorful shades and seem to last longer than others. My mom’s favorite place to get OPI is TJ Maxx.
Press-on nails are so much fun too – I just used some for a dance and they last like 3 or 4 days!
* Vans Slip Ons
The white go with everything but they have a ton of other fun colors. They don’t go on sale but the least expensive place I’ve found to get them is Journeys. When you go there, sign up for their email and you’ll get $5 coupon right away, plus you’ll get free shipping.
* Bath Bombs, Loofas, and Shower Stuff
Girls love bath bombs because they make your baths pretty, and not to mention, they’re super cool and smell good. A good razor and a new loofah is always a good idea.
* Beanies
Beanies are so great for winter because they can be super cute while keeping you warm. You can get these pretty much anywhere in any color, but a favorite brand is Carhartt.
* Gum & Good Chocolate & Any Weird Food Craving
You can never go wrong with Lindt Truffles--oh my goodness, they are heaven. I absolutely love gum--I always ask for a ton of Orbit sweet mint gum every Christmas because it keeps me going through school and helps out the breath when you need it.
* A new charger – choose a color that is different from everyone else’s.
* Fun Pens, Markers and Pencils
Colored pens like Sharpies are so fun or new pencils are great for school, and lettering kits would be a nice gift if she’s into that :)
* A planner
I love keeping my school stuff and everything I have going on organized. These ones are super cute and only $10!
* Little Tree Car Freshener
 |
| a perfect stocking stuffer! |
* Bracelet Key Ring
 |
* Think about vouchers for lessons or classes -- maybe she would love an art or craft class or self-defense or guitar lessons?
* Gift Cards
I love finding these in my stocking, especially when they’re gift cards to my favorite restaurants close to my school – even $5 or $10 are so great to get!
I hope this helps you with your gift ideas!! Good luck
- Hailey
