Here at Clever we like to plan ahead. And in preparation for a holiday season to remember, we've rounded up the best gifts under $50 for all the friends and family members on your list. Since we don't think this year's shopping should cost an arm and a leg, we scoured the internet for 33 original gift ideas-including art prints, decor, and tech accessories-for keeping spirits high when budgets are low. Each item in this gift guide is under $50 (some are under $30, and even under $15), hopefully making budget-friendly shopping a little bit easier. Our opinion? The best gifts are thoughtful gifts, so please enjoy these mindfully designed presents they'll love no matter what your budget is.

$8.00, Amazon

Keep their phone at 100% thanks to this sunny portable charger. Its slim, lightweight design holds over a full battery charge-plus it's available in other fun shades like pastel blue and mint green. This is a great gift for that friend who's constantly asking to borrow your iPhone charger. 

$9.00, Amazon

We can't think of a better way to unwind after a long day than with a nice glass of wine and this adult coloring book full of cocktail-loving animals.

$9.00, Amazon

Not only can these handy AY-KASA crates hold just about anything from mail to shoes, they also come in just about every color.

$10.00, Urban Outfitters

For the avid cycler in your life, this punny bike bell should add some zest to their daily commute or leisurely rides.

$10.00, Anthropologie

And here's a personalized dish that can hold their daintiest keepsakes.

$11.00, Yowie

Bring a little holiday cheer to their morning routine with a happy hue and retro silhouette. Whether they're a coffee lover, a tea fiend, or just a big fan of H2O, it's a perfect gift for anyone who loves a well-made mug.

$12.00, Baggu

With over 50(!) designs and patterns, it's easy to pick up a nice Baggu tote that'll fit any person's taste. We like this funky (but still neutral) distorted checkerboard for quick trips to the grocery store or a nice afternoon at the flea market. 

$12.00, Ban.do

Here's a cheerful mini notebook that'll be perfect for journaling on the fly or jotting down their grocery shopping and to-do lists.

$13.00, Amazon

Surprise your favorite bibliophile with a happy pair of wood bookends that'll be perfect for showcasing their favorite reads.

$10.00, Counter-Print

And if you need something to stick between those bookends, we recommend picking up this unique booklet filled with architectural logos and global design elements.

$14.00, Partners

If coffee is what fuels them, this sweet and nutty blend from Partners should supply the kick they need.

$16.00, Italic

Italic's candles may look and smell expensive, but their under-$20 price tag make them the perfect gift for just about anyone on your list.

$16.00, Food52

You know exactly who in your life needs a butter ornament this year. And if your crowd leans more vegan, these Cody Foster-designed cuties are also available in avocado or pickle forms. 

$35.00, Amazon

You don't have to invest hundreds of dollars in a new coffee maker for a cup of Joe that'll delight their palette. If they can't get enough high quality caffeine, this portable Aeropress will accompany them in hotel rooms or on road trips for a steady dose of smooth coffee.

$20.00, Stojo

On that note, you can tuck this collapsible Stojo in your bag to enjoy drinks anywhere any time. Each 16 oz. cup comes with a convenient matching straw (pair with a cold brew maker for a super splurge gift), built-in heat sleeve, and it is available in 25 charming colorways. Stojo's reusable water bottle also makes a great stocking stuffer for someone looking to stay cool.

$20.00, Ordinary Habit

Already seen the in-flight movie? Make sure your loved ones stay entertained with this bright travel puzzle packed in an easy-to-store canvas pouch for game night on the go.

$25.00, Material

For the person you know that's always fighting for more counter space, a mini cutting board that can take all sorts of slicing and dicing is always a great choice.

$26.00, Ban.do

This cheeky OJ carton vase should supply more than your daily dose of vitamin C.

$26.00, Rituals + Ceremony

If you plan on gifting them their favorite incense, a beautiful holder is only the logical complement. These designs from Rituals + Ceremony are handmade and come in different abstract patterns that will elevate any tabletop and encourage a moment or two of self-care.

$27.00, Bon Femmes

Add a whimsical touch to their bathroom decor with this happy divers bathroom print by Canadian artist Janet Hill.

$27.00, Perpetual Bliss

Or, soothe their senses with this calming eucalyptus candle. Infused with light notes of peppermint and vanilla, we recommend letting it burn, while you soak in the bath for the ultimate relaxing combination.

$27.00, LilySilk

Anyone who takes extra care when it comes to their tresses will appreciate this silk pillowcase available in 16 different colors and patterns.

$30.00, Italic

This super-soft cashmere beanie should help keep their noggin warm into next year. Personally, we'd go for this fiery shade of red, but it's available in neutral camel and black too.

$30.00, W&P Design

Or, you can keep their drinks warm (and cool) with this W&P bottle in an attractive terrazzo design.

$35.00, Urban Outfitters

Everybody sneezes, but not everybody has a kaleidoscopic tissue box cover that makes doing so a little more fun.

$36.00, Society6

We think Maggie Cowles's delightful art prints make perfect holiday gifts for anyone on your list. Though there's plenty to choose from, we'd opt for this delectable-looking tablescape. 

$50.00, Etsy

We love these sustainably made cork planters from U.K. brand Mind the Cork. And if your loved one is more into organization than starting an indoor garden, they double as desk accessories. 

$42.00, Golde

Known for its superfood beauty and wellness products, Golde's Make Your Matcha kit comes with everything they'll need to make their own tasty matcha creations at home. Goodbye never-ending lines at the café! 

$45.00, The Sill

Even certified plant killers should be able to keep these low-maintenance greens in bloom. Just keep them in a sunny spot and make sure they get a small watering every two weeks (plus they're pet-friendly too).

$46.00, Everyday Humans

They'll have everything they need to fight harmful UV rays thanks to you and this kit from Everyday Humans. Inside each set you'll find a Resting Beach Face SPF 30 sunscreen, Oh My Bod! SPF 50 body sunscreen, a Bomb Diggity Wonder Salve Mint, plus a cute carrying case to hold it all.

$49.00, Google

The Nest Mini is much more than your average bluetooth speaker. In addition to playing their favorite music and podcasts, the small-but-mighty Mini can set timers, turn on the lights, and answer questions like 'what's the weather today?' And Google Assistant can help them get organized around the house-including controlling their other smart home gadgets like lightbulbs or thermostats. This is gift-giving at it's best. 

$49.00, Urban Outfitters

Bring one of the year's hottest design trends into the holiday season with this fungus-inspired cushion that'll seamlessly match the rest of their cottagecore aesthetic.

$50.00, Quince

A robe may seem like one of the more traditional Christmas gifts out there, but this lightweight waffle robe-from Clever's favorite bedding brand Quince-is made of organic cotton, and it has more spa vibes than an L.L. Bean fleece. You can pair it with Quince's matching organic waffle slippers and a set of nice sheet face masks for a great gift set that'll cost you less than $75 total. 

$50.00, Quince

Or, if you want to gift them something they can wear out of the house, we think anyone would love to receive this elegant cashmere V-neck. Perfect as a cozy layer around the house or underneath their favorite winter coat in icy temperatures.
