Top 5 Gifts Under $500
1) Wood-Framed Custom Map Serving Tray
A custom map serving tray keeps the memory of a special place—a first home, stand-out vacation, or wedding—close to you. A location from anywhere in the United States and the nine square mile-surrounding area are featured on the map. A compass rose will mark the exact spot and the map’s legend can be customized, too. Made in Rhode Island with Indian mango wood.
2) Gratitude Jar
These Made in the USA, printed glass gratitude jars encourage you to take a moment to be thankful—and they do it beautifully. Their apothecary jar style looks sharp as it gets filled with loving notes. Or, next time you find a penny or some spare change, take a second to note your blessings as you drop it into the jar. As you watch the jar fill up, you’ll build a habit that helps you focus on the positive things in your life.
3) Round Lid
Get It Right: 4"Round Lid (2-pack) - Studio White
4) Scratch-Free Odor-Resistant Scrubber - Scrubber - 8-Pack
This dish scrubber takes to water naturally. A solo scrubber or scrubber-sponge combo cuts through tough messes in hot water—and tougher ones in cold. A gill and eye in the fish-shaped design helps scrub all the nooks. It won’t scratch glass and the open-cell technology structure quickly releases water, food, and grease, so it dries fast, too. Just stand the sponge on its tail.
5) Reusable Silicone Container Set
Zip Top: Reusable Silicone Container Set - Frost
