For the One Who’s Always Cold

Anthropologie Sophie Faux-Fur Throw Blanket

Sophie Faux-Fur Throw Blanket

We love a faux fur blanket because it looks and feels real (read: extremely luxurious and cozy), but doesn’t actually use any parts of the animal to achieve it. We all know a woman who is always cold (even at home), so do her a favor and give her the gift of a warm, snuggly blanket.

For the Carbo-Loader

Free People Loaf Candle

Loaf Candle

We all have a friend whose favorite item to snack on is bread. No judgment. For any carbo-loaders who love a good baguette, get this highly realistic loaf candle, which smells exactly like a Parisian patisserie.

For the Campfire Lover

TerraFlame Element Tabletop Firebowl

Element Tabletop Firebowl

Bring the campfire inside with this tabletop firepit. It may not be as big as the real thing, but it will definitely bring the same vibes (minutes the smell and black smoke that burns when it gets in your eyes or mouth).

For the Ornament Collector

Williams Sonoma Deviled Egg Ornament

Deviled Egg Ornament

In our opinion, the most fun Christmas tree ornaments are the non-traditional ones. Anyone can adorn their tree with red and green glimmering orbs, but few can pull off a (faux) deviled egg dangling from a branch.

For the Traveler

Away The Large Toiletry Bag

The Large Toiletry Bag

Anyone who travels a lot needs a toiletry bag big enough to house all of their goodies but not so big that it’s hard to find what they’re looking for in a hurry. This one includes three built-in compartments for skincare, makeup, and anything they’d need to keep their teeth pearly white.

For the Writer

I Know Collection Habit Tracker

Habit Tracker

People who journal often love it because writing something down makes it feel more real than keeping it in their heads. This little booklet is like a hyper-organized journal for those looking to get more on track with their daily rituals. It’s full of prompts and ideas to keep you on schedule.

For the Gardener

The Sill Money Tree

Money Tree

Although a money tree does not sprout dollar bills, it is said to summon good fortune, making it a great gift for anyone with a green thumb. It comes in two sizes and seven planter shapes.

For the Baker

Williams Sonoma Olivewood Fluted Pastry Cutter

Olivewood Fluted Pastry Cutter

This is not a generic gift you’d give to just anyone; it’s for your friend who loves to bake complicated desserts. Why complicated, you may be wondering? You don’t slice fluted strands of pie crust or pastry dough to make something easy.

For the Fragrance Fan

L’avant Collective Fresh Linen Room Spray

Fresh Linen Room Spray

This room spray comes in a durable thick glass bottle that’s topped with a heavy metal cap. That’s important information because it feels and looks so much more luxurious than a room spray housed in a plastic container. The good news? It smells just as good as it looks: It’s fresh and light.

For the 9-5 Worker

Logitech Lift Vertical Ergonomic Mouse

Lift Vertical Ergonomic Mouse

Anyone with an office job could use an ergonomic mouse that, even after hours of use, won’t make their hand cramp. It comes in white, pink, and black, but we are partial to the pink.

For the Coffee Drinker

Anthropologie Bistro Tile Margot Monogram Mug

Bistro Tile Margot Monogram Mug

Anthropologie offers many mugs, but these are consistently the best-sellers. We can see why with its bistro tile pattern, contrasting palette, and enormous monogram.

For the Dancer

Raycon Everyday Speaker with Microphone

Everyday Speaker with Microphone

There’s no need to get her an expensive speaker. This tiny one about the size of a card deck has incredible sound quality and gets pretty loud. Anyone who likes hosting parties could use one of these, where a good song will erupt into a dance-a-thon.

For the Hostess

Meghan Miller Coastal Serving Board

Coastal Serving Board

It’s been a while since we’ve seen a serving board that actually moved us, but this one stopped us in our tracks. Just look at it! It looks like an extremely realistic mini beach, complete with plenty of space for delectable charcuterie. If you’re wondering what makes the water look so real, it’s the hand-painted resin, which is even more durable than plastic.

For Her Small Apartment

West Elm String of Bananans

String of Bananans

As a famed symbol of love, devotion, and loyalty, a string of hearts plant is a great gift for your partner. It’s easy to care for too. The best part, however, is that it doesn’t take up any floor or counter space. It’s ideal for small space-dwellers.

For the Martini Drinker

Sister.ly Drinkware Iridescent Handmade Hammered Martini Glasses

Iridescent Handmade Hammered Martini Glasses

Every martini glass should come in a set because such a beverage is meant to be enjoyed with company. This pair is one of our favorites because it’s made of hammered iridescent glass that’s ultra-feminine but hardly delicate. Not to mention they look pretty stunning on a bar cart.

For the Photographer

Kodak Printomatic Digital Instant Print Camera

 Printomatic Digital Instant Print Camera

Though no one really prints out photos anymore, we’re making a case for the lost art of tangible memories you can actually hold, pin to your fridge, or frame on the wall. This nifty Kodak doesn’t just take point-and-shoot snaps, it also prints them instantly.

For the Chef

Le Creuset Stoneware Mini Round Cocotte

Stoneware Mini Round Cocotte

With no visual context, this may look like a typical Le Creuset Dutch oven, but it’s not. It’s teensy, which is why it’s so cheap. Anyone cooking for one would appreciate this thing because she can prepare everything from a baked egg with spinach, tomato, and feta to pecan cinnamon rolls.

For the Makeup Artist

Anthropologie Gleaming Primrose Vanity Mirror

Gleaming Primrose Vanity Mirror

Gift her this TikTok viral mirror, and she’ll never stop gushing over it! The petite countertop size is perfect for her morning makeup routine.
