This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by. The winner is Adrienne. Congrats!

The person that should be the easiest to shop for is actually one of my biggest challenges. My husband of almost seven years is a “no-fuss” type of guy, and my requests for gift ideas typically result in the same response…”anything would be fine.” Without a lot of direction, I could easily resort to clothes and accessories. However, I wanted to find something meaningful, or at the very least useful. So I headed to The Home Depot, armed with a few ideas in mind.

As you probably know, The Home Depot is your “go to” store for all-things home improvement. But have you ever thought about shopping for Christmas gifts at the warehouse? I haven’t spent a lot of time at The Home Depot, but each visit is always specific and focused on a home improvement project. When I visited this week, I had to change my perspective and actually found more gift ideas than I would have imagined.

This is my favorite time of year to walk into a store since most are decorated for the season. Fresh cut Christmas trees and poinsettia plants greeted me upon my arrival, along with a store associate. In fact, all of the associates at my home store were pleasant and eager to assist.

The entire front section of the store is dedicated to holiday decor and I was seriously tempted to pick out a few items for our home. But my focus was gifts, so I walked down each and every aisle, in search of something useful for my husband. Along the way I discovered grills…beautiful, natural gas grills that would make entertaining and summer barbecues a breeze. But I continued perusing the store. Along with holiday decor, the front of the store also has a dedicated section for power tools. By nature, my husband isn’t a handyman, but when his father was out visiting this summer, both of them proved just how savvy they are when it comes to DIY home improvement.

In addition to the above items, I found practical gift ideas like water filtration systems and vacuums, toys for kids, and even some decor items from the Martha Stewart Living collection that would be suitable for women. So what did I finally decide on? This Hampton Bay Vanity Fixture for our bathroom. I’d like to say it’s going to be a surprise, however, my husband reads my blog so… He’s been wanting to change and update some of the decor in our home so I thought this would be the perfect gift for him (um…us? )

If you’re struggling with gift ideas, I highly recommend visiting The Home Depot’s online Holiday site. It’s well organized and can serve as a guide before visiting the store. Plus, you’ll find at least 1,000 items that can only be found online. And, if all else fails, you can simply give a gift card so that special person in your life can purchase the perfect gift for themselves. Gift cards, including electronic gift cards, can be used online and in stores throughout the US, Mexico, and Canada. Additionally, The Home Depot is the only retailer to offer video gift cards that can be personalized.

Are you an iPhone user? Download their free app to research and purchase products, check store inventory, and pick up purchased items in-store. You can also visit their YouTube Channel for holiday shopping tips.

Lastly, one of the things that makes The Home Depot unique is their free Home Improvement Workshops. This season you can learn about some Simple Small Projects you can complete to make your home holiday-ready, gift ideas you can Try Before You Buy, and Innovative Solutions For Maintaining Your Home. The Home Depot also offers educational, interactive, and engaging kid’s workshops which we have participated in. The workshops, which are geared towards children between the ages of 5 and 12, are held on the first Saturday of the month between 9 am and 12 pm at your local store. Children learn do-it-yourself skills and tool safety, and receive a free apron, a commemorative pin, and a certificate of achievement, along with the craft they have completed. For more information, visit their website.

Win It! One of you will win a $50 gift certificate to The Home Depot. Simply browse their online gift section. Then come back and leave me a comment with the gift you’d like to select for that special person in your life. Comments will close on December 23rd at 11:59 PM PST.
