GIFTGUIDE2

I'd have to check the archives, but I am fairly sure I've never done a holiday gift guide. So for fun, this year, I thought I would round up my most favorite (tested!) household items that would make great gifts. The items on this list are things we LOVE and use around here daily.

for the hostess a set of geo coasters.

for the brand new mama a simple white robe.

for the wine drinker a set of "drop-stop" wine pourer disks.

for the bouncing baby a wooden rainbow stacking toy.

for the coffee lover a kitchenaid bean grinder.

for the super planner a stendig wall calendar.

for the best friend an arrow cuff bracelet.

for the crazy plant lady a subtle hanging planter.

for the green skincare fan a bottle of body lotion.

for the proud grandma a personalized photo calendar.

for the baker a book of perfect bread recipes.

for the newlyweds who cook a le creuset dutch oven.

for the newlyweds who don't  a set of organic cotton white sheets.

for the photographer a camera lens.

bonus… if I was stuffing my own stocking this year I'd toss in a gold heart headband, burts bee's almond milk hand cream, trader joe's white taper candles & a handful of washi tape.

please note … links may be affiliate but, as always, opinions are 100% my own.

    Great guide! Love the plant hangers, need to get some for our own house! Are the plastic? Do they have drainage holes?
    Thanks for sharing.

    yep, plastic and yes, there is some drainage built in that the plant rests on (hard to explain..) not holes though, since if you hung them indoors they’d drip on the floor. I am sticking smaller plastic pots in mine (like the ones the plants come in at the store that have drainage).

    Elise, is that the robe you got as a gift? If so, what size do you wear? I’m a 6, so I think a small would work, but just wanted to hear if it’s TTS

    I registered for the wooden rainbow stacking toy after seeing Ellerie with it and we just got it from one of our friends for our little one! I can’t wait to see him play with it! (or, rather, play with it in front of him while he gums one of the pieces…)

    I’ve been dying for a 35mm lens! And of course, my heart always craves a le creust dutch oven. One day…

    I usually don’t like gift guide posts, but I love this one! I like how you broke it down by who to give the gifts to. As usual, you did a fabulous job!
