Gifting is my love language. I absolutely love giving gifts to other people and nothing brings me more joy than absolutely nailing it with the perfect gift. I've put together a compliation of useful gifts under $50 that are great for any adult. These gifts are useful and pair wel with homemade and consumable compliments that add a level of thoughtfulness to the gift.
