Not So Expensive Gift Ideas

Speaking of the holidays and all I am trying to find rather inexpensive gifts for my friends and family that are more thoughtful then just going to the mall and buying them.
I figured etsy was a good way to give thoughtful gifts because they are handmade and from a whole other community then huge retail stores.
I love to support local small retailers as much as possible, but usually they are astronomically priced. Thats why Etsy is so nice because they have genuine stuff and you can't replicate it.

I found a couple gifts...


Bittyclippies $45

I love this idea! I just don't know who I would put on it and for who...

Fine Art Reflections $19.95, free shipping

Bethany Lorelle $25

Ten Things $22


Tremundo $10

Ileaiye $25

Everyday Fairytale $28

Madlight13 $35


Do you have any good Etsy shops for me to shop from?
