Top 5 Gifts Under $50
1) Aromatherapy Heatable Slippers

Ready to sit back? These heatable slippers are the perfectly relaxing finishing touch to help you warm up and unwind. The insoles are filled with organic lavender and flax seeds. Pop them in the microwave, then put your feet up and enjoy a toasty, aromatic treat-yourself moment. Handmade in Argentina.
2) Visual Measuring Cups

So smart and so fun. Measuring cups ditch the tiny numbers and let the shape tell the story—a half of a cup is the half of the cup. They help make baking and cooking accessible for everyone from kids to adults. The cups neatly nest together to take up less space.
3) 360º Stainless Steel Water Bottle - 14 oz - Blue

This double-wall insulated, stainless steel water bottle sports a 360° drinking valve that enables sipping along every part of the lid without any spills or leaks. No spout, button, or bite valve needed. It keeps drinks cold for up to 24 hours without sweating, too.
4) X2 Dual USB Car Charger

Charge two devices at once—at twice the speed of a regular wall charger. One of the ports uses intelligent recognition, reading your device then charging as fast as possible from 2 to 2.4 amps. The remaining charge port powers up with two amps. Compact, lightweight, and pocket-sized, you'll be able to charge your devices on the go wherever you are.
5) Pewter Necklace

Customizable nautical chart and map jewelry handcrafted in Portland, Maine.
