Notes For This Guide
This is not an exhaustive list, unfortunately. I wish I could come up with gifts for everyone, but I can’t know people’s exact hobbies and interests, so this gift guide is for more niche categories. I have tried to include a few items for people that are challenging to buy for and also for those people that seem to already have everything. Trust me when I say I have several hard to buy for people in my life so I’ve added some of my go-to gift ideas for those people to this guide. The guide is broken down into the categories listed so feel free to jump around to just the categories you need.
The Stocking Stuffers
For those who want to add a few fun and little things to the stocking tradition.
Jar Bottle Can Opener – My mom recently got me this bottle opener and it is awesome. I love that it is stainless steel, easy to care for, and it does more than your typical bottle opener. Strong or not, even the men in the household may get some use out of this can opener because it has a function to help open cans for those who don’t have nails to help get the job done. Plus, this can opener is sleek and looks and feels high end.
CeraVe Healing Ointment – Useful for everyone in the household and multipurpose this is an item I’ve either bought or told everyone in my life about. This ointment is amazing as a hand lotion, but you can use it for pretty much everything skincare wise. I use it as a lip balm, as a highlighter, and even as a barrier cream for areas that you want to keep safe when applying potent skincare like retinol. If you are sick and get a chapped nose this will clear it up overnight too perfect for the winter season.
The Homebodies
For those who love to be cozy at home, perhaps the introverts, and those that are in bed by 8:30 pm.
Dearfoams Women’s Slippers – These slippers are affordable, pretty, and great quality. They are soft and warm but perfect for year round use. The slippers are also easy to slip on, but have a solid outsole that gives good traction and keeps your shoes from getting too messy for indoor or quick outdoor use. Plus, they are machine washable and come in a variety of colors. I can’t speak to the men’s slippers but Dearfoams have a ton of great options for everyone in the family.
Unhide Lil’ Marsh Blanket – Any homebody will appreciate a nice throw blanket and this one is extra special. It is a little bit of a splurge but it’s amazing quality, ultra soft and comfy, and perfectly warm without being too hot so that it’s usable all year long. Plus it comes in a variety of beautiful neutral colors.
The Interior Designers
For those who love a simply cozy and beautiful home.
California Design Den Bed Sheets – Every interior designer knows that a well made bed is not only beautiful and decorates the bedroom but it is also important for that bed to be amazingly comfortable. These sheets check all the boxes. The price point is amazing for the quality, they come in a variety of colors which is perfect for any designer, and they are organic GOTs certified making it safe for even the kids in the household to use as it comes in all bed sheet sizes.
Vine Creations Amber Glass Soap Dispenser Set – Elevate any bathroom or kitchen with these gorgeous glass soap dispensers. They come with labels and are one of the few sets of dispensers that I’ve found that come with two of each label. For instance, there are two labels for “Hand Soap” making it perfect for bathrooms with two sinks for matching dispensers. Plus, the labels are waterproof.
The Chefs
For those who love cooking and like to pretend they are the host of their very own cooking show.
Kaizen Casa Acacia Wood Salt or Spice Box – This is such a unique and beautiful gift. This little wooden spice box not only looks great on a shelf or counter, but it is handy and fun to use. You’ll feel like a true chef tossing in a pinch of salt or spice into your dish your preparing from this sweet little box. Also, this gift costs less than ten dollars making it a steal especially for the quality. Chef’s kiss!
KSENDALO Thin Fish Spatula – Every good cook needs a good spatula and this one is incredible. I have never used it for fish, but it is great for everything I have used it for. I love that it is stainless steel which is one of the safest materials in the kitchen, plus it’s long lasting, easy to clean as it’s dishwasher safe, and is so thin but sturdy that it can flip even the most delicate to most hardy foods.
The Moms
For those who are busy and need someone to take care of them every once in a while.
PAZIMIIK Quilted Makeup Bag – Mom’s aren’t always the best at self care, and I’m not a huge fan of gifting skincare with so many sensitivities and preferences out there. Instead, I like to pamper the special women in our lives with something they can use for their self care time that feels luxurious and beautiful. This makeup or toiletry bag is great quality especially for the price, comes in a variety of pretty prints, and has plenty of space for makeup and toiletries along with a zippered section for little things like makeup brushes. This little bag can really elevate self care or even just mom’s morning routine.
Owala FreeSip Sway – At this point I think most people have heard of the Owala tumblers. This FreeSip Sway water bottle is not only pretty, but it allows the user to drink either through a built-in straw or through a spout. The best part is the water bottle is leak proof making it safe to be carried, thrown into the car, or knocked over by a toddler. Plus the bottle is stainless steel and easy to clean. Every on the go mom appreciates a high quality water bottle.
The Dads
For those who are hard working dads and maybe not always the easiest to buy for.
Digital Tape Measure – Every dad or special man in our lives has a moment of playing handy man or having a project to do around the home. This digital tape measure is a unique and handy gift that almost assuredly every man will use at some point making this a gift that works even for those who feel impossible to buy for.
Grill Carry System – If your dad or man in your life enjoys grilling like my husband does, or even just enjoys cooking in the kitchen then this grill carry system will be right up their alley. There are four pieces that come in the set with a prep and serving tray with lid all made of stainless steel along with a bamboo cutting board. Plus the items all stack making them easy to store, the materials are easy to clean, and it makes cooking and grilling easy too!
The Toddlers
For those who are ages 1 to 3, super busy, and into everything.
Little Tikes Story Dream Machine Starter Set – As parents, we all know how important and magical reading books with our children can be. This little kid-friendly projector is such a sweet gift that gives the ability to create fun and cozy memories. Whether you use it during the day to read books together, or it becomes a bedtime ritual where your child can watch, listen, and read along to classic stories it will be well used. The projector even doubles up as a white noise machine and nightlight. Little Tikes sells other book sets to go along with the Story Dream Machine making for great future gifts at things like birthdays or future Christmas days.
Owala Kids Insulation Stainless Steel Tumbler – For the moms category I recommended an Owala water bottle, so if your toddler wants to match mom or dad then give the gift of a fun tumbler in their favorite color. They have the water bottle FreeSip style for kids too like the one listed in the moms category but I love this tumbler option too and so does my daughter. I love the ease of care, the fact that it is stainless steel meaning there are no yucky chemicals ingested, and it’s leakproof which is always needed for a toddler. It’s a good gift when you are looking for something fun, that will be well used, but isn’t a toy.
That’s A Wrap
I wish I could do a more exhaustive list and add even more categories, but there’s always next year! My goal was to find a couple of unique gift ideas that are all relatively affordable, high quality, and can please a variety of people even those that feel impossible to buy for. Now it’s time to get to wrapping (or maybe Amazon will be doing the gift wrapping this year), and enjoy the joy that the little fun things in life can bring. Most importantly, don’t stress about the gift giving but enjoy the time with your family and the memories you’ll cherish for years to come. That is the best gift of all!
Merry Christmas to all!
