Christmas is mere weeks away and I am stressing out over finding fabulous gifts for my family, friends and co-workers. I’m keeping my eyes open for great gift options. I am even listening very carefully to the things people are saying in hopes of coming up with some gift ideas. Just the other day my son mentioned how he needs to pick up a jump starter for his truck (one of those external car battery jump starters). The moment I heard him talking about it I was on Google looking up the various types available and comparing them.
We always try to stick to a budget when shopping for gifts. It’s not that we don’t want to buy the best things available, it’s more so that we don’t go overboard and find ourselves tapping into our savings account.
One place to shop that is often overlooked is Etsy. Etsy has a lot of great shops that offer gift options for just about everyone on your holiday shopping list for family, friend, co-workers and even “Secret Santa” gifts.
One such site is Love and Threaded. Love and Threaded has a great assortment of gift ideas to choose from – custom women’s jewelry, bible verse apparel, birth month flower gifts, resign keepsakes and more. There are even great gift ideas for under $25.00.
I received to review some beautiful giftable items from Love and Threaded to check out to review. I received the following items, some of which are available for under $25.00.
This handmade REAL pressed flower keychain comes with a chic pearl charm. It’s available with a gold letter initial monogram.
I left it in the original gift box because I wanted to show how this gift is ready to give. Just wrap it in some nice holiday wrapping paper (or a gift bag) and you have yourself a great gift for that special lady in your life, your best friend, co-worker, flower lover, gardener or you can even gift it for someone’s birthday or a bridesmaid gift.
This photo doesn’t do this justice. The flowers are bright and colorful. It’s a good size keychain too (the floral part).
I’m considering getting one for my co-worker and another one for my daughter. I think both of them would enjoy such a pretty gift.
I’ve been especially excited to receive this special photo keychain. It’s shaped like a heart and features different photos on each side.
My father passed away in May. I wanted something with his photo on it and having a keychain personalized with his image means I can take him with me where ever I go.
Due to the nature of my father’s photo it was necessary to print it out the way it is. It allowed for his entire face to be on the keychain and not have it cut off.
The opposite side features me and my father the very last time I saw him (2024).
The images look “washed out” in my photos but that is NOT how they look in person. It’s just the way my photo turned out. The colors are more defined in person.
This photo keychain sells for under $25 (actually under $20) and would make a wonderful gift for ANYONE – significant other, grandparent, child, teen, best friend… Not only that, it’s a gift that yo can give to anyone year round – graduation, wedding, anniversary, passing of a loved one… Don’t forget you can use it for photos of your pet, child, favorite vacation spot, house… the possibilities are endless.
The photo is sealed inside a resign heart.
Other under $25.00 options include;
- Personalized Birthstone & Initial Bracelets—delicate, keepsake pieces featuring the wearer’s birthstone and initial, ideal for daughters, moms, and grandmothers (from $18).
- Birth Flower with Birthstone Keychains—unique handmade gifts that combine a custom floral design with a symbolic birthstone, perfect for holiday gifting and stocking stuffers (from $15).

Love and Threaded also offers a variety of personalized bracelets that range in price from $9 – $42.There are two bracelets that are under $25.00.
I received this lovely personalized initial bracelet to review. I was going to keep it to gift to my daughter (she has the same initial as me) but after seeing it, I am going to keep it for myself. I fell in love with it them moment I saw it.
The bracelet I received features my initial, a cute daisy (check out the great detail!), a diamond-like charm (in the photo is was on it’s side, my fault for not noticing that when I took the photo) and a moon.
I love the large bracelet links. It’s different than most other bracelets.
This bracelet is something that can be worn and enjoyed with a tee shirt and jeans or a night on the town. t’s very versatile
Love and Threaded also has fantastic customer service and most items have a quick turn around time.
