I am actually not getting any gifts this year. My Mom gifted our family a trip, and H and I decided not to exchange & just buy ourselves some art and a new rug for the living room.
BUT that doesn't mean I didn't make a list... Just in case I get some $$ from a family member and want to buy something.
Nutra Bullet Coral and Ruby ring on etsy Mani Pedi gift card
Pajamas from Soma and some bras and underwear. Some roll on perfumes. Gift card for B&B or maybe a new eReader.
Honestly, the older I get, the less I want. I need some new clothes, but would rather have a gift card for that. Oh a new wallet. I saw some at Fossil I really like.
A fitbit Oahu hiking guide book 5th expansion of CAH Some make up sets from Sephora Columbia winter hat Kettlebell Cold Press beer from a MN brewery Skinnytaste cookbook Luggage set Food spiralizer Outdoor/picnic blanket
Along with a whole bunch of stuff that's too expensive for people to buy me A media wall unit, floor lamps, ipad mini, a dyson, pressure cooker, all the diamonds, etc.

Super exciting stuff:
4 black padded folding chairs (we have two card tables but only 4 chairs) 6 foot folding table, to replace the one H took over as his work desk for his side business Hand held/portable steamer New Ipod/case Gift cards (Amazon, Bed Bath & Beyond, restaurants for takeout after baby arrives, my local hair salon) New robe and slippers (which I already bought for H to give me or for him to sell to anyone who needs an idea for me) New calendar and datebook Body Shop body wash, body butter and lip balm (that I picked out) Casserole dish with hot/cold pads and carrier
LL Bean hearthside slippers Cuisinart griddler and waffle plates Fleece GS logo jacket National Museum of the American Indian cookbook New mixing bowls with lids foam roller minimalist Sally Ride poster floor mirror PiYo DVDs CAH sewing machine B&N GCs for Nook books
I'm not expecting to get all of these, but the list will go to DH, my mom and MIL so I wanted plenty of variety/price points to pick from.

I have had my Fossil wallet for almost 8 years. They last forever. I LOVE THIS THING! Which one are you looking at? It might be time for a new one.

This one, I like that it is not too big, but still has a lot of storage.
I have a birthday in two weeks, too. So far, the only thing I can think of is a GC for a deep cleaning of our house. Boring!
I've been so overwhelmed by the amount of STUFF in my life lately. I'm trying to get rid of stuff, and am not in the "want" frame of mind right now. Unfortunately, we live in an area where experience gifts are pretty limited, too.
I could use a new wallet, though! That's a good idea!
I am trying to think of stuff that isn't all practical. And I am in a getting rid of stuff mode too so thinking of things to bring into the house...I just can't right now.
What I would really love is the money to create a dedicated craft room in our basement for myself. I could probably get it done for around $1000 since I can DIY most of it and only need to hire out the electrical for the lights and outlets (need to add a breaker to the box). I have all the furniture and would just need to get more shelves/totes/etc. for storage organization.
Treadmill (not happening) running shoes Patagonia boots Clothes from Boden, Gap Fit, Old Navy and Athleta 20lb dumbbells lifting gloves Cookbooks Life in Motion: An unlikely ballerina book Zuzka Light DVDs Lodge iron skillet stuff from Latienda.com
This is stuff I want. Obviously not getting all of it

This is my dream. To make it true, though, we would need to move, since it can't happen in our 1200sf house.
On my list: Origins ginger roll-on scent Sewing stuff (thanks, ML) A hoodie GC to fabric store, Amazon Black booties
