Practical Gifts for Women With Busy Lives
Updated by Timothy Paradis
There are only so many hours in a day, and between work, life, and running around the little ones, sometimes it's hard to squeeze in some precious "me time." This is true for everyone, but especially the women in your life: While working from home can be a blessing, reports indicate that this has meant more and more work for women at home. A fancy dinner means hiring a babysitter and a family vacation can cost more than your mortgage; so rather than adding to your stress levels, why don’t you give the woman in your life a more practical gift?
Skip the Amazon gift guide or Nordstrom sales this year and dive into our curated list of simple yet versatile gift ideas that are sure to speak to her heart and nourish her soul. While gadgets and the newest apple products seem practical, sometimes it's the little things that make a lasting impression. So show her some gratitude and save her some time: Send the extraordinary women in your life the best gifts straight from the Cratejoy marketplace that will indeed treat and take a few tedious tasks off the list along the way.
