Few weeks to go before Christmas! Time to check gifts off the list and start wrapping them up. There are a lot of Christmas ideas online to avoid Christmas rush and the crowd. Why I love online shopping? I’m one busy mama : full-time mama to Eliana the whole day and blogger at night (also a part-time crafter, gardener and baker).  It’s more convenient, more choices and less crowd.

Stuck for what to buy this Christmas Season? I’ve done the hard work for you and so I’ve rounded up my favorite online shops on Instagram for my Best Christmas Gift Ideas.I have chosen the best and unique gift ideas – most of them are handmade and crafted by local artisans and crafters, all locally-made. So here’s my #MrsEneroFinds :

  • Go Natural Alegro

These Go Natural! Alegro bottled dried herbs and spices are one of the BEST Christmas gift ideas I’ve seen online. It is organically grown and traditionally dried, perfect for herbs and spices lover like me. Bottled dried herbs are for healthier meals and recipes. GNA provides complete gift packaging, to spare their clients from the hassle of going through Christmas rush, traffic and gift-wrapping.  They also do meet-ups and personal delivery for bulk Christmas orders, but they also ship nationwide for regular orders.

Go Natural Alegro was actually the brainchild of Ms. Abegail Ruiz’ aunt, who loves organic and healthy products. Her aunt started selling the products a few years ago, through her regular weekend bazaar in Tagaytay. Ms. Abegail recognized the uniqueness of the products and its great health benefits, so she decided to order a few samples from her Aunt. She created the Go Natural Alegro Instagram handle, she got few inquiries about the product and so she continued on marketing through both social media.

Products : Go Natural! Alegro Bottled Herbs & Pure Turmeric Powder. Herbs include Basil, Thyme, Rosemary, Parsley, Oregano.

Prices : May vary depending on the packaging. Contact Ms. Abegail via viber or SMS 0917-5158389.
