The women in our lives wear many hats. They're often breadwinners, cheerleaders, teachers, impromptu life coaches, therapists, personal chefs, chauffeurs, and so much more all rolled into one person. And for that, they deserve recognition and some serious R&R for all that they do for us.

So this year, we say go above and beyond with stocking stuffers that will make her life a little easier. Here are 46 ideas under $50 for every woman on your list that will leave her feeling so adored and appreciated.

Give her the perfect excuse to sit back and soak the holiday stress away with this luxurious drink caddy. The wine glass holder is crafted from ash wood and beach stones (hello, spa vibes at home), and suctions right on the shower wall. Meanwhile, the glass itself is made from BPA-free plastic so she can settle into the tub with zero accidents.
