You read that right – it’s holiday szn baby! The Gift Guide is here. π€Ά
It’s no secret that giving gifts is a favorite hobby of mine…
All year long, I’m keeping notes in my phone whenever I think of that perfect something to gift a friend or family member. Even though I love this time of year, I do know how it can be pretty stress-inducing for the a lot of people – this is where I shine. Enter the 2022 Gift Guide! This year I am separating it out by who each grouping of gift ideas would be good for, but have fun with it.
For the Homebody
- Brooklinen Sheets
- I have the luxe sateen sheets and they are oh so cozy. I also love the Sterling sweatshirt. This year, I am putting the Heathered Cashmere sheet set on my list.
- It Ends With Us and It Starts With Us by Colleen Hoover (pairs well with a box of tissues)
- Organifi Chocolate Gold
- If you know me, you know that chocolate gold is my all time favorite cold weather bevy. Add the whisk while you’re at it – it is SO powerful. My link above saves you 20%, but if you wait until Black Friday, it’ll stack with another sale and save you more!
- CBD Salve by Cured Nutrition
- I know magic is real because this product is a lifesaver for muscle pain and cramps. If you are a human that feels things, buy this right now. Oh, and gift one as well, of course. Use my code SAMRAE to save 20% (and keep an eye out for holiday deals π )
- Branch Basics
- Non toxic products (especially cleaning supplies) is a must. Save your person the trouble and gift them the full line of products.
For the Coffee Lover
- Nespresso Original line
- Looking to get a bigger ticket item? This is it. The Original line option is great for those who like single and double shots of espresso, as well as Americanos. It’s also perfect for iced coffees and lattes during the warmer months!
- Bula Breakfast Blend by Harbor Perk Coffee Roasters – a fave from my hometown
- Thumb Mug
- There are so many options on Etsy to choose from – you can’t go wrong. I’ve linked my personal favorite above.
- Collagen
- Let’s face it, we aren’t getting any younger here, so letβs take the help where we can! I use Marine collagen every single day in my coffee – it’s completely flavorless and blends in beautifully with a whisk. Use the code SAM10 to receive a 10% discount.
For the Kitchen Queen
- Damn Good Gluten Free cookbook
- If you are searching for a cookbook to inspire amazing meals, look no further! I love how reading it feels like Peggy is in the kitchen cooking with me.π
- Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream
- What’s great about Jeni’s is that you can send ice cream just about anywhere, and who doesn’t love ice cream?? I also just realized that you can purchase a box of single serving cups from Jeni’s and I definitely see this in my future.π
- Trice’s Spices seasoning blends (another hometown fave of mine!)
For the Wellness Babe
- Womanizer
- In my opinion, every woman should have a womanizer. Self pleasure is healthy, fun, and sexy af with the sleek look of these sex toys.
- Pique
- I’ve been a huge fan of the Sun Goddess matcha, but recently tried B.T Fountain and wow wow I am becoming a superfan very quickly.
- Organifi Red Juice
- Tastes like fruit punch, but it’s not filled with dyes, chemicals, and sugar. Great afternoon pick me up for those trying to slow down on coffee consumption. My link above saves you 20%, but if you wait until Black Friday, it’ll stack with another sale and save you more!
- Brighteyes by Clearstem
- I. Am. Obsessed. They are also having a 26% off sale this month – don’t miss out!
- Olipop
- I feel like I am late to the Olipop game! A healthier soda pop alternative is truly what we all didn’t know we needed. I am currently trying to get my hands on the newer Cream Soda flavor – you better believe I am asking Santa for it.π
For the Travel Bug
- LMNT
- LMNT is amazing for hydration. My current favorite flavors are Citrus and Chocolate Mint! The link above gives you a free sample pack of all flavors when you order a box!
- AirTags
- These babies come in handy if checking any luggage!
- Propolis Throat Spray (must bring on any trip!)
- Get Supr
- You have the option of a cbd or non-cbd infused blend, either way this instant coffee is perfect for travel because all you need is hot water.
For the Local to Ohio Chick
Gift cards!! Honestly, purchasing gift cards from small business (whether in Ohio or not) is the move. It immediately puts cash into that business, and during the winter months it can get tough. Below are a few of my go-to Columbus / Ohio small businesses if you need some ideas!
- Parable
- Roosevelt
- Woodhouse Cafe
- Fusian
- The Hills Market
- LIT Life + Yoga
- Ellery
- Ebb & Float
- Citrine Hair + Skin
- Jennings Java
