Give a small something to show someone special you care, or perhaps to say thanks for all they do. These gift ideas from Sturbridge Yankee Workshop are both thoughtful and easy on your wallet. Spend a moment to think of someone who could use a thoughtful gift and enjoy the ideas we have here — all under $20!

For the Entertainer

Going to a friend's house for some homemade soup on a chilly day? Consider bringing a small token of your appreciation for them to enjoy. Not hosting Thanksgiving this year? You know how much work it is — give the host of the family meal a special gift to show them how much you appreciate the time and effort they put into making your holiday so special. It does not take much to let someone know how much you appreciate their efforts.

Little Scented Somethings to Say Thanks

Hand soaps are a wonderful gift-giving option for almost anyone you know. They're perfect for those who frequently host, as well as those who deserve an extra-special gift for the senses. Sturbridge Yankee Workshop's soaps feature appealing imagery which can serve as an accent for your kitchen, bathroom or guest bedroom, and have enticing scents like Harvest Apple and Pumpkin Spice. The soaps contain shea butter and olive oil, which will leave your skin feeling soft and refreshed. You'll likely find yourself wanting more than one of these hand soap bars to share with everyone you know. (Not to mention keeping a few tucked away for your own use at home!)

Versatile Accents

Give the gift of accents that celebrate autumn with rich colors and themes of the season. The leaf ornaments shown below are are handcrafted in the USA, and are made using real leaves for a natural look. They can be hung on a cabinet or doorknob or used in gift wrap. The Full Moon Maple Leaf Ornament (bottom left) appears as if it were dipped in pure gold. The Lacey Oak Iridescent Ornament glistens with fall spirit and showcases the intricate vein detail of the oak leaf.
