Your Ultimate Gifts for Thrifters Guide

Out of time, last second shoppers? It's better now that never. Since there's not much time to craft or shop for goods now, here's a few of my favorite online picks for our thrifty kind. Going with my Useful Gifts theme of the year I tried to select somewhat practical gifts.

1) Such a Perfect Day Calendar 2) Cloudy Delight Glass and Coaster Set 3) The Meal Deal Lunch Set 4) A Penny a Day Coin Purse 5) Personal Assistant Organizer 6) Prepared for Anything Pouch 7) The Conspicuous Key Box 8) Full Balloon Rising Travel Mug 9) Something is Brewing in the Woods Mug

Surely you've heard of Mod Cloth? This website's selection is catered to thrifters. Within you'll find everything thrifters seek: quirky/kitch items, vintage and vintage style bits, art/design books, and mod design.

1) Mod Vintage Red Windsor Ball Lamp 2)Vintage Sony AM/FM Cabinet Radio 3)Kitschy Cocktail Server Nut Dispenser 4)Quirky Italian Bird Dish 5)Flower Cups and Saucers 6)Betty Crocker Cooking Calendar

A La Modern has an excellent selection of unique mid century modern designs. I'm impressed by their knowledge and dedication to preserving relics from this unique era of design. They specialize in vintage housewares and home decor.

1) Reuseable Dinosaur Fabric Stickers 2)Re-Usable Snack Baggies 3)Record Player Pin 4)Lovely Rain Print 5)Happy Clay, Short Tumbler  6)Remember this Album Notebook

Paper 'n Stitch is an online exhibition space for artists, crafters, and designers. Each artist is carefully hand selected every month. Quality is consistent, but merchandise definitely isn't limited. You'll find art, books and zines, ceramics, clothing, accessories, housewares, jewelry, paper goods, craft supplies, toys, kids, and vintage.

Magazines and Subscriptions

I heard of a service called Mag Hound that allows subscribers to choose any magazine of their choice each month. Sounds like a great gift to me.

I also recommend the following magazine subscriptions as gifts for thrifty friends:

Antique Trader // Makezine // Boho Magazine // ReadyMade  // Atomic Ranch  // Modernism  // Living, Etc. // Dwell  // Country Living

Shop Cute/Kawaii

I may have to start an "online shop review" feature, there's so many out there that I admire.

The Heyday Shop // Ismoyo's Vintage Playground // Little Odd Forrest //Cute Tape She Likes Cute

Unique Art and Prints

Thumbtack Press // Ashley G // Red Velvet Art // Sewing Stars // Inside a Black Apple // Miss Kika
 

 Just for fun, this is my current wish list. Ah, it's fun to dream...

1)Godzilla Art Tumbler  2) Little Robot and Rain Print 3)The Meal Deal Lunch Set (in black) 4) I'd Rather Be Thrifting 5)Help Me Hope Brown Travel Mug 6)Zojirushi Gold Water Dispenser 7)Mushroom Wristlet 8)Virtue of Patience Lunch Bag 9)Zojirushi Rice Cooker
