This year I decided to ask the audience what they’re asking for on their gift/wish list. Lots of different options and price ranges for everyone in your life!
For the homebody:
- Range subscription ($35/month). This is done by my friend Kara Duval and it has truly changed my life. It’s kind of embarrassing how much I can’t stop talking about it on social media LOL. I literally haven’t been to a gym in 2 years because of Kara and what a joy it’s been.
- New silverware ($35.99): love the matte black look on these. Adds a little slice of luxury to mealtimes.
- Bala Bangles ($40): I use these daily when taking Kara’s classes on Range.
- Brooklinen Robe ($80) a personal favorite! I put this on after work nearly every single night.
- New candle ($82) – I know this amount of money for a candle doesn’t seem normal, but I can’t even begin to describe how soothing this smell is. It transforms over the layers and makes my apartment smell so so cozy.
- Caraway Pans (prices vary): I just love these pans! Non-stick and they genuinely motivate me to cook more.
- Blender ($195): I’ve seen this blender all over IG and I’ve also been big time eyeing it.
- Headphones ($449): Currently almost $100 off
- Offering to get someone’s house/apartment professionally cleaned.
- Getting someone a CSA paired with a favorite cookbook.
- Get someone libby subscription or Library card and give them a list of your favorite books!
- Propagate house plants to give to someone! (so creative and thoughtful and the gift that literally keeps on giving)
- Gifting homemade tea tins from garden chamomile and sourdough bread (love this idea!!)
- Print out some beloved photos and frame them.
For the adventurer:
- Fanny Pack ($95): love this little fanny pack for mini trips when I don’t want to bring a purse.
- Beis Weekender: ($98) I’ve been eyeing Beis for awhile and their weekender holds so much! Love the idea of getting this as a gift and planning a weekend getaway with a friend and/or loved one.
- Backpack: I’m personally in need of a new back
- Beis ($78):
- Dagne Dover ($155): such great ratings on this one!
- Camera ($599): Ok this is currently on my wishlist and while it’s likely still going to remain on the wishlist for awhile, I’ve heard great things about this one! Seems really intuitive to use and great for both camera and video!
- The gift of language! Finding someone a private tutor would be an amazing gift! My sister did this for me last year. This post shows how I’m currently trying to learn Spanish.
- Plan a day or weekend trip for a loved one! Even if it’s just something local.
- Season pass to a local beach
