Stocking Stuffers & Small Gift Ideas

Illustration of Present-OliverioOver the past year I gathered up some cruelty-free ideas for stocking stuffers and Christmas gifts.  Some of these items have been thoroughly tested by me and others just caught my eye and interest.  Perhaps you’ll find something you like.

Other than sharing a recipe later this month on Keepin’ It Kind (cookies!), this will be my last blog post for 2013.  Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and happy holidays!

    So many great ideas! I love the “To-Go Ware” and the shirts and the books! I got a sample of the Rescue Chocolate in my Vegan Cuts box and it was SO good. Love this Annie. Have a wonderful holiday season and “see” you next year!

    PS~I love the VVP video announcing the winners, SO cool.

    I love that Zen Threads T-shirt with the bird on it – so cute!! Oh, and I guess great minds think alike since we both posted a stocking stuffer post at the same time. :)
