Stocking Stuffer Idea: Ring Holder
This week I got the Anthropologie winter catalog. Which means I immediately ran to my bedroom like a little girl, climbed in my bed under all the covers, and flipped through every single page, devouring everything I couldn’t afford.
What I love about Anthropologie is that nestled in between their expensive clothes, jewelry, accessories, and other fun things are little, affordable finds. You just have to look closely for them. And this catalog didn’t disappoint.
There on one of the pages were the most adorable ring or jewelry dishes. For $10!!
Look how cute and simple these little dishes are! I love the dog one, personally. But I’m a dog person. It looks like Lucy fell into White Out, shrunk to tiny proportions, and then climbed up in a porcelain dish. I love it!
But if you’re not a dog person, look at this little bunny dish. So sweet and girly. Bunnies just make me smile.
Except for that one bunny that I had when I was growing up. Did I ever tell you about that bunny? He was a jack rabbit and I won him at the county fair by throwing a ping pong ball into a tiny goldfish bowl. I hated that bunny. His name was Ping Pong and he was mean and fast. He used to get out of his cage and I could never catch him. Or, if I did catch him, he’d bite me.
Bastard bunny.
Anyway, THIS is not THAT bunny. This is a sweet, white, porcelain bunny that looks over your rings and things while you sleep at night. Everyone needs a bunny like that.
I think these sweet little dishes make great stocking stuffers for Christmas presents. Or, if you’re as broke as I am, they make great BIG gifts, too!
Now, what fun would it be to show you these pretty, cute little things without GIVING you one of them? So, to be entered to win the ring dish of your choice, leave a comment telling me what store you’re doing most of your Christmas shopping in this year. The giveaway will close Thursday at 8:00 PM EST and a winner will be announced on Friday.
Good luck!
P.S. This is not a paid advertisement. I bought this product with my own pennies which I dug out from my own couch cushions. Amen.

Most of my shopping was done at Vera for the girls in my famly. They had the best deals there this year!
Jordan
wow, I can’t beleive you bought this with your own money. As a reader of your blog, I feel very loved 🙂
Most of my shopping is done at target or just general Amazon.
Laurie
So far I have done a lot of christmas shopping at Target..I love that store!
Ashley
Most of my shopping will probably be done in a Walmart/Target-type store. Decent stuff at good prices! Let’s hope. 🙂
Kerrin
Most of my shopping was done on Amazon… one stop shopping!
Kara Mull
My grandmother had a swan ring holder in the window sill about her kitchen sink. Many years have I watched her remove her rings before she started cooking. I never thought about one for myself. Wat a fantastic idea.
WE did most of our toy shopping at two places, so it’s a tie between Toys R us, and Amazon.com
Crystal
That is so nice of you! I did most of my shopping at Target, like always 🙂
Lori @ I Can Grow People
My Christmas shopping so far? Target! I just made a cute gift for the one year old daughter of my friends Amanda and Brian all using stuff from Target’s famed $1 section. Score!
Mandi
I love Amazon. You can find ANYTHING on that website and (usually) for a good price!
Cristina L-S
I’m doing most of my shopping on Amazon. I’m hoping to avoid the mall as much as possible. It’s fun to get packages delivered to my door. 🙂
Mary K
We’re not doing Christmas shopping this year, we are making everyone candles. We have no money!
Heather in NY
Those are so cute! Like some of the other posters, I have been doing most of my shopping at Amazon or Target. Almost everyone I know is getting a Kindle for Christmas this year, so lots of people are getting Amazon gift cards for the Kindle books.
Catherine
Much to my own chagrin, most of my shopping came from Amazon. While I miss the actual shopping, it was just far more practical with a one-year-old! To make up for it, though, I tried to do the rest of my shopping at smaller, niche stores.
Dyanna
Every bit of my shopping has been done at Amazon!!
Amy @ Serve At Once
Most of my shopping will probably be done on Amazon.com. I can do it in the comfort of my PJ’s and I have a Prime membership, so no shipping costs. Plus, comparing prices on the Net is quick and easy, and some things (like books!) are great to buy at used prices.
Ali
I haven’t done all of my shopping in any one place… parents at a silent auction, boyfriend online, and have yet to find something for my sister. The Byward Market here in Ottawa ON is normally my go-to shopping place for unique gifts though!
Anne vdH
i will do most of my shopping… at fleamarkets! i live in new york so they’re everywhere and they offer great stuff. otherwise: etsy!
Kim B
At this point I have done most of my shopping at The Buckle. With 4 teenagers/young adults to buy for I can’t go wrong with jeans from The Buckle!!
Kristen
Don’t laugh, but the majority of my shopping this year has taken place at Cabela’s! This is a outdoorsman/sportsman store, for those who aren’t familiar, and a favorite of my husband. I got him a digital weather station, and tons of stocking stuffers from their general store. I couldn’t stop myself!
Kristin @ Our Life Beyond the Game
Target or Shutterfly.com! All my presents are purchased and wrapped..yay for me!
Abigail
We rule the second hand gift market. All our kids presents are either from a yard sale, thrift store, or ebay.
Sarah R
Amazon.com is where i shopped at this year!
Julie S.
I have done a lot of shopping at Kohl’s! Second place was Vera Bradley. LOVE that place! 🙂
Little Mermaid
Target & Kohl’s
Laci
Most of all of my shopping this year was done on Amazon. I have only 3 gifts that I actually went to a store an purchased….I guess with a 1 year old, online shopping just appealed to me this year!
Nikki
I’m an Amazon girl personally. Ever since you wrote about hints last year I’ve been able to keep track of what to get for who!
Alicia
This Christmas, I got quite a few things from Amazon.com. I’m a big online shopper.
I can’t believe that you bought this with our own couch cushion money. You’re awesome Katie!
Betty
You mean, there are other stores out there besides Target?!? I haven’t shopped at any other store.
Jenny J. @ Fondant Is Gross
Amazon.com!! I love Amazon…. they have EVERYTHING. And the Central Michigan University bookstore, they don’t have the spread that Amazon does, but I have a lot of book lovers on my list and I spend a LOT of time on campus…
Bridget
So far most of my Christmas shopping has taken place at Toys R Us, for the little ones in my life.
Leslie
My shopping has been done entirely online and at borders books. Nothing Fancy this year.
Jen C
girl you need to be keeping your pennies 🙂 most of my shopping was done at kohls or uncommongoods.com which has a ton of fun quirky gifts.
Amy
Most of my Christmas shopping this year is being done at KikkiK. I can’t help it, I’ve just fallen in love with so much of their stuff this year.
P.S Winning an actual animal at a carnival. Cool. The most I ever got was a stuffed dinosaur.
jennie p
I saw these in the Anthro catalog today too!!! Most of my christmas shopping was done in my own house – we’re having a REGIFT christmas!
Jen D.
amazon.com is a store, right??
Ashley
We are saving up for a trip to New York for my graduation, so we haven’t really done a lot of shopping this year! However, I never shop at one particular place, I shop wherever I can find the best deals!
Sandy
just got started but so far target and kohls…but watch out walmart!
Lisa
Most of my shopping was done at Bath and Body Works for some excellent hostess gifts and stocking stuffers and of course Best Buy for the guys!
Katie M
Tar-jayyy baby! That, and I just discovered Martha Stewarts homemade stuff, so going cheapie cheapie and making homemade gifties!
Will's Mama
Oh Target…. how could we live without you?! Well, Target and my local bookstore- that covers about 80% of my Christmas shopping.
Amy
Most of my shopping will probably be done online through ebates, since I get cash back and super sweet discount.
Laura
My shopping happens on the internet. And I shop everywhere, I like shopping Etsy for gifts a lot though.
Nicole
Cost Plus World Market. It is a great place to find unique and affordable gifts.
Jayne
Actually, I’m gonna do edible gifts this year so no shop in particular. I got tired of getting stuff that noone really needs/wants. So this year it’s stuff like muesli mix, brownie mix, spiced rubs, spiced nuts, oven-dried tomatoes in oil etc. At least I know they will be appreciated. LOL.
Cassie
Etsy! and Marshalls! and HomeGoods! yeah!
Heidi M
I’m am doing most of my shopping on ebay, with the rest at Toys R Us & Ikea.
Kelly P
So sweet of you! I also love Anthro but can never afford it. I never thought to look for the little things though – I’ve always avoided it so as not to die of a broken heart thinking of all the things I can’t have 🙂 I love the puppy one. I’ve been bugging hubby for a dachshund for 3+ years! Maybe for christmas…..
Sara Reyes
i’ve done most of my shopping on amazon.com so far. Yay for Amazon Prime free shipping! Woot Woot!
Andrea in NC
Target and Kohls are tied for my favorite Christmas store 🙂 I love buying most of my gifts at Target (especially clothes and purses!) but I can never resist the Christmas decorations and the jewelry at Kohls. I’m always sure to bring a list or budget with me — and I always wind up ignoring it! Merry Christmas!
Christen
Is it bad that I haven’t started my Christmas shopping yet and don’t know where to start?
Ashley
hmm…each person seems to want something at different store, how convienent right?.. but probably bed, bath & beyond
Melissa @ Greener Grass
I’ve done most of my shopping online this year. It’s just so easy. I love the bunny. I love Anthro. Wish I could do all my shopping there! Thanks for such a sweet giveaway!
andrea
I guess most of it has been done at Target (mostly toys) but a lot has been done online getting specific things (like Stephen Joseph backpacks for my kids) it’s a very slim Christmas this year so we are focusing on the kids, but I’m ok with that, there is nothing better then kids on Christmas morning anyway!
Tiffany
Most of my shopping has been done at Target. My favorite store EVER!!!
Catherine M.
Beautiful!! Our big gift for our parents this year is a big photo book of the baby. We put it together on blurb.com. Love it! Other than that, we’ve been buying a lot at the gap.
Ashley
I am going to do most of my shopping at Toys R Us. 4 kids plus a ton of nieces and nephews!
Katie S
I’ve definitely done most of my shopping online – the town in which I live doesn’t even have a Target! And I love these ring dishes 🙂
Leslie
For me, it has been Amazon.com and then Target is a close second! Love them!
Erin R.
I’ve done most of my Christmas shopping at Kohls and at Target 🙂
GirlyGreenGirl
Oh Katie, I hope you bought one for yourself! I’ve done almost all my shopping via Amazon. The whole family made wishlists; I haven’t stepped foot in a mall and I’m DONE. Jealous? =P
Jessica
Target!
Stephanie @ Our Marriage Adventure
Best Buy is where most everyone’s gifts are coming from with the exception of my husband.
Kristen S.
Amazon!
Kara
We do most of our shopping on the internet. Soooo much easier and less messy because we curse humanity less. Keeps us sane! I loooove the doggie one, too!
Amy
I recently discovered the joy of etsy — and a lot of my Christmas gifts are coming from there! Actually, thanks to YOU, my two nephews are receiving ‘Fuzzy Robot hats’– LOVE them 🙂
Kimberly
Most of my shopping was done at Bath and Body Works. I love me some Bath and Body Works. 🙂
Jenn
Target- I can find most anything there!
Sara
Well, we’re moving from Illinois to North Carolina next week, so I haven’t done a lick of Christmas shopping! I’m planning to do it all in one day when we get there–you know, between unpacking and trying to get utilities turned on and stuff. eek!
Caitlin
Target! I must go there every day (or at least it seems that way!)
Kathy Sanderson
I will probably be making most of my Christmas presents this year (as we are rather short on funds). Other things will probably be gotten at Walmart and the Dollar Store.
Brooke
Amazon. It’s so convenient.
Christy
I haven’t even started shopping yet, but I imagine the majority of it will be done at Target. Though, to make my best friend and my sister ridiculously happy, I should be buying things from Anthropologie!
Erin
Most of my shopping was done at JoAnn Fabrics as I’m making most of my gifts (if I finish them in time).
Christina L.
I did most of my shopping on Etsy. I know it isn’t a traditional store but I love it so! You can get unique, special gifts while supporting an artist directly. I feel like you can’t go wrong!
Sonya
Does the internet count as a store? I want to win, but if I don’t I’m ordering the bunny one anyway! I think that’s the cheapest one I’ve found!
Rachel P.
Most all of my Christmas shopping has been accomplished online. Amazon.com for most and Snapfish.com for the grandparents!
Marie
Amazon.com. hahaha. So easy, and it arrives at my door! Love it.
Ana
Funny or not, I love to buy Christmas gifts at IKEA! 🙂
Casey
Tervis Tumbler. Amen.
We made personalized tumblers with Eli’s pictures on them for our whole family. $15 each. Yeehaw.
Leticia
No one store really, but almost everything has been online!
Shannon
Target. I feel like I live there.!
Beth G
I’m doing a lot of online shopping this year. Cafepress, Amazon, UncommonGoods…I just really don’t want to go into stores.
Rika
My Christmas shopping has been done at Target.
Jen at Cabin Fever
I haven’t even STARTED my Christmas shopping yet this year! …but, when I finally do I think much will take place at Best Buy. Electronics are always a big hit!
Amber
Costco. Its our favorite store!! I just mosey around, picking out gifts and adding to my wish list!
Sara M
My shopping has been at a few stores, but the 2 with most of my money have been Toys R Us and personalizationmall.com. I freaking love that personalized site!
beth
I haven’t started yet, I will probably end up at Target/Wal-Mart and on Amazon.com
Laura L.
I am doing most of my Christmas shopping on shutterfly, not technically a store, but all of their products make great personalized gifts!
Joke
Oh so you guys do big presents and stocking stuffers are seriously meant to go into stockings? Or what?
I think I’ll end up doing most of my shopping at Amazon because I don’t have time to go outside (writing final papers), but I do want to go to McNulty’s and buy tea or coffee for everyone!
MaryannD
I’ve done a lot of shopping online (various sites) and some shopping in Macy’s. I’m not finished yet, so who knows what store I’ll be in next! Love these ring holders!
JenniferLO
Honestly, I only had about 3 gifts to put together and all I’ve bought is the fabric for my mom’s blanket, so Joann’s has been my store! 🙂
Kaitlyn S.
Most of my Christmas shopping has been split pretty evenly between Super Target and Urban Outfitters. I love Urban Outfitters for all of their quirky house items.
Sarah H.
I love the bunny one! I had a bunny growing up whom I loved and was very well behaved (sorry about your jerk one!). His name was Bun Bun (I was 10, forgive me). And he was a large black and white English Spotted rabbit. You should google image that. They’re cute 🙂 Mine didn’t have the full black muzzle area, just some spots. Oh dear- I digress. ANYWAY I did most of my shopping at Target, of course 🙂 But really I did a lot online, which was awesome!!
Lindsey
I did the majority of it online, and what I couldn’t find there I found at Target!
Maggie
I think most of my Christmas shopping will be done at Target, like most years. But I think Half-Price Books and Waterloo Records may have a chance to creep up there…
Amy S
I’ve done quite a bit of shopping at Amazon.com.
Far
probably Anthropologie, William Ashley and William-Sonoma!
Megan
I think most of mine has come from Target this year, as it often does!
Leslie S
Mostly at baby and kid stores. I’ve really only bought presents for my son.
Joy
Thus far I have done my Christmas shopping at Wal-Mart. I live in Canada and, sadly, there is no Anthropologie anywhere near me…or Target. A world without Target is a sad, sad world, Katie. Your blog helps me cope. 🙂
Katie
Target for sure!!!!!
Stacy
Most of my shopping has been done on Amazon and Target.
I love the dog one a well! Cute!
Hailey
I Love the bunny! 🙂 AND pretty much ALL of my christmas shopping was done at Cabelas this year. We have alot of outdoorsmen to buy for LOL.
Mandy
I did my shopping all over the place: Gap, TJMaxx, Old Navy, Macy’s, Target, Etsy. In fact, I don’t know that I bought more than one thing at each place.
Jen Morris
Amazon fo sho! I read your review about the Amazon wish list and created one for my daughter and me, made my husband make one and made all our family look at the list. I’ve made sure that if we buy a gift we check Amazon first for the best price and free 2 day shipping! Can’t beat that!
Josie
My shopping will be happening at the Mall of America. One of the best parts about being a Minnesotan: if you can deal with the Mall during December, you can get everything done in one location!
Farrah
I love the little doggie dish, too….it looks as though he is just begging for a few pretty baubles! As for shopping, it’s a tie between Target and Amazon….during such a busy and cold winter, it has been a blessing not to have to trudge through the snow towards shopping mall insanity!
kirsten
As always, most of my shopping is done at Target – and Amazon. i love target though – it’s my most favoritest store ever.
Jennifer
Let’s see… I spent too much money at Target… AGAIN!
Maple
Mine was mostly done at the locla huge craft fair! I got all the overseas relatives done as well as my Mum – just working on polishing off the husband, my brother and my dad!
Sarah S
Mostly at Amazon and Toys R Us – Amazon is so dang convenient!
Angela
I live in Canada, and I’ve been spending so much of my time shopping at Zellers.
Ginna
I’m trying to do as much Christmas shopping as possible through independant shops and artists this year!
Colleen
Amazon–I am a lazy shopper
Kelly H.
AMAZON! We orderd most of our gifts from there this year and that makes me happy. Not standing in lines and dealing with pushy people makes this pregnant gal VERY happy!
Jean C.
I read that catalog today, too! I love these!
And I did most of my shopping at thinkgeek.com, because my family is full of awesomely dorky people like me.
Jamie
Online… If I ever get around to it. Amazon. Or Target
Kate
I’ve done most of my Christmas shopping at American Eagle so far. But I’m also far from done…
Kim T
I actually did a lot of my shopping at REI this year – lots of outdoorsy folks to buy for this year!
Alexandra
Bed, Bath and Beyond! I love that store!
Nicole
Target…I love that store!
Dessi
I do most of my shopping at Kohl’s. They have something for everyone and I get an employee discount…that helps!!
Carrie
I am a Target girl myself… I can always find the best deals!!!
