Christmas list ideas for $50-100 - help!

I don't know what I want for Christmas.  But I feel like if I don't brainstorm a few things I will get stuff I absolutely do not want so I'd like to at least offer a few ideas.

Help me brainstorm gift ideas for $50-100 to put on my wishlist (bonus points if they are actually on Amazon because that is where I house my wishlist).

TIA!

ETA - I know it's early, but I am already Christmas shopping and DH asked me, and warned me that I'd better get a list ready.

  • It's not amazon, but I have been debating getting this:

    Is there anything for your sewing projects that would be in that range?

  • Fabric, lol.

    Actually - great thought PAGAS - I've added a thread rack, pinking sheers, ribbon organizer, and some other lower cost items when, combined together, would get into that price range.

  • No ideas, but do you know you can add any item from any site to your Amazon wishlist?

    Edited because that was my info...going to find a better link.

    I love that feature!

  • Clothes, small kitchen appliances/utensils, shoes, makeup brushes/makeup, sunglasses, bags/purses, GCs, etc.

    They do have fabric on amazon, I've put it on my wishlist & received it as a gift.  I also got bias tape makers off amazon, they're one of my favorite sewing gadgets.  If you don't already own those, they are a lot of fun.  My current sewing want is a ruffler, but I haven't taken the time to figure out which one is compatible with my machine.  Once I do, it's going on the wishlist.

    Other than books on my wishlist I currently have a scarf, a hairbrush, some of my china & crystal, 2 pairs of shoes, a fossil watch, a fossil clutch/wallet, a sewing book, a camera lens, and an embroidery machine (that's a bit over your price limit though). 

    Sephora & Fossil have amazon stores, so I usually end up putting a lot of their stuff on my list.  If you know my real name and you need inspiration do a search for my list.

  • I'm debating a Kuerig, also I won a Kindle but that would have been on my list.  Although both are a little higher.

    I always want kitchen stuff.  New cutting boards, serving pieces (I got a ton last year), I need some new pyrex type baking dishes.

    I'm also asking for Amazon gift cards to use for the Kindle.  Pajamas are usually good.  I don't ask for clothes because I'm hard to buy for.

    Vera Bradley bags are also good, if you like them.

    Of course, most of this isn't on Amazon...

    oh, great idea, thanks for the suggestion.
