Favorite things party gift ideas for under $30!

Have you ever been to a favorite things party?! I go to one every Christmas and it’s one of my favorites! I get to bring my favorite thing AND see what all my friends are loving right now!

Here’s how it works (at least how we do it) in case you have never heard of it. Every guest is instructed to bring their favorite thing to the party (set a price limit that works for your group). We keep ours unwrapped so everyone can see and put them in a certain spot on display.

We draw numbers just like you would during dirty Santa, then we each go around and show our favorite thing and tell WHY it’s our favorite. It’s basically like you are “selling” your item to people so they oooh and ahhhh and want yours the most 🙂

Then, you start with number 1 and let them pick. We allow each item to be stolen twice and then it is frozen for good! It’s always SO much fun….especially when the stealing happens for the hot items!

Today I’m rounding up 10 of my favorite things party gift ideas that are all under $30! Maybe one of these will end up being your favorite thing too!Favorite things party gift ideas for under $30
