2021 GIFT GUIDE
HI FRIENDS!
I’m not entirely sure who I think I am, considering I’m usually out shopping for last minute gifts on Christmas Eve.. and I don’t even really like Christmas.. but I’m killing the gift giving game this year and figured I’d pass along some really great ideas! I tried to generally categorize, but it’s essentially just a list of items that I’d love to personally receive AND would feel great about gifting to someone else.
SO.. Without further ado, I present to you my first (and probably last LOL) gift guide.
1 | WOVEN COTTON WEIGHTED BLANKET
I’ve actually never used a weighted blanket, simply because I’ve heard so many complaints about the filling to make them weighted shifting around and it being annoying. But this one clearly won’t have that issue, and is so cute!
I mean this is a no brainer if you have the space in your bathroom.
6 | INDOOR/OUTDOOR PROJECTOR SCREEN
How fun would this be!
I’ve yet to post a review on the nori, but it is so worth it. Way less clunky than a steamer, and less work than an iron - and it does both!
8 | RECHARGABLE CANDLE LIGHTER
The amount of times I go to target needing a new candle lighter, spend $100+, and walk out without a candle lighter is embarrassing.
I have so many places I wish I could put candles, but would 100% set the house on fire lol! Might buy these for myself.
Just got this in the color sand and it is so pretty! It also comes with a PDF file for inserts.
I’ve heard numerous times how little people thought they’d use this, but it ends up a permanent staple on their countertops!
3 | CHARCUTERIE BOARD INSPO BOOK
Paired with a charcuterie board, this would be super cute.
6 | AFFORDABLE CAST IRON SKILLET
7 | HALF BAKED HARVEST COOKBOOK
Alll of her recipes her gold. Trust.
Think an at-home game of chopped. Could be a disaster, but at least it was fun?
Kinda funny, kinda very serious.
3 | LEATHER DUFFLE WITH SHOE COMPARTMENT
This is a sample pack, and would be a good stocking stuffer!
This is so cool! I want one.
1 | COSMEDIX OPTI CRYSTAL EYE SERUM
So handy, especially with the laundry bag! Great for toner, makeup removal, etc.
Multi-use! Covers the brush head, but also holds it off of the countertop for cleanliness.
A way better option than clarisonic/cleansing brushes!
Might look crazy in use, but it WORKS if you were wondering.
Safe for lash extensions!
I LOVE SKEE BALL! I want a full size for my basement, but I suppose this would do for kids lol.
SO FUN!
8 | INDOOR/OUTDOOR BOUNCE HOUSE
Literally where was this when I was a kid?
I once received a blanket with photos of Harper all over as a Secret Santa gift at work and it’s still my favorite!
How freaking cute?!
Getting these for Harper and Opal this year - I like that they have a true martingale option!
Was my original collar/leash choice, but they don’t offer martingale. But still so cute!
How great would it be to crack open a cold one with your pups? Isn’t that everyone’s dream?
8 | NINA OTTOSSON INTERACTIVE TOYS
I’ve always thought these were cool, but after having an aussie mix I’m realizing just how necessary they are to keep their minds occupied!
Collars, leashes, harnesses, key fobs, etc. They truly have a zillion different patterns, and tons of sets!
I’ve never been a fan of apple watches, fitbit, whoop etc. due to constantly having something on my wrist. But I think ring form is genius!
Definitely don’t believe in stepping on regular scales, but with all of this extra info, it’d be a nice progress tracker for sure!
Definitely the next home-gym purchase!
I was so hesitant, but when I pulled the trigger on a bike earlier this year, I wondered why I didn’t just do it sooner. IN LOVE with it, and the fact that there are tons of other workouts offered like guided running, barre, yoga, pilates, strength and more.
My favorite water bottle - I’ve used the plastic ones for a while, but am pumped to have a glass option! It’s pretty much the only thing that helps me guarantee enough water throughout the day.
This is my favorite winter coat. Super light weight, but still keeps you super warm!
I already feel guilty about the amount I spend on clothes; sweatpants aren’t something I love to spend my own money on. These ones are SO COZY and is a matching set. Also love aerie’s sets as well!
4 | BAREFOOT DREAMS WEARABLE THROW
The way I would live in this…
The best part about meggles knits is that she’s local (Norfolk, MA)! I’ve purchased a few custom beanies from her, and they are so cute and so warm. I’m loving this american flag inspired one!
10 | COLORFULKOALA 7/8 LEGGINGS
A dupe for lululemon aligns, and they are the only black leggings I wear now. Perfect for day to day wear, but also great for working out in. Plus, pockets!
I 100% of the time will have multiple of these in my daily bag, so everything has it’s place.
2 | PORTABLE DOOR LOCK SECURITY
3 | TRAVEL TOOTHBRUSH WITH TOOTHPASTE TUBE
5 | MADEWELL TRANSPORT CROSSBODY
This is what I carry around daily and I am OBSESSED. It fits only what you need, and maybe a tiny bit extra, can be used as a cross body or with handles, and can be monogrammed as well! It also looks better and better the more worn it gets, in my opinion.
My favorite weekender bag - I even fly with it for short trips. The bottom compartment is a game changer for shoes, hair tools etc. and it fits so much more than it looks like it can. I have it in the color thistle.
So many other cute sayings available, too! Like “GETAWAY” “ALWAYS ON VACA” “CIAO” etc.
Not going to summarize each book, but they’re all great especially for entrepreneurs! A lot of them would be great for reading during the 75 hard challenge, too!
