Unique holiday gifts on a budget

Finding the “perfect” holiday gift is not always easy. You want to be thoughtful, show the person you know who they are and most often, you don’t want to spend a fortune.

Every year, we all buy for a similar circle of family and friends, and it seemingly gets more difficult to uncover unique and personal gifts. So, I thought I would share a few of my favorite gifts for the holiday 2012 season!
