🎁 Hey! While we’re doing our best to make sure the products we feature will arrive in time for Christmas, shipping times are especially tricky this year and can vary depending on where you live, which product you purchase, and more. Shop early and be sure to double check the retailers’ websites for shipping information to ensure that your gift will arrive in time for the 25th! 🎁
1. An electric grinder if they're sick of [insert affordable instant brand here] and are trying to broaden their caffeine horizons. This affordable present chews up and spits out whole beans into coarse, medium, or fine grinds. Beans! Beans! They make you very happy if allocated for the perfect cup of coffee.
2. A wick trimmer because they absolutely bought 103 candles from the annual Bath & Body Works sale — and no judgement, because #same. But did you know that cutting the wick prevents soot and makes for an even burn so that every dollop of wax melts into eucalyptus goodness?! Now you do.
3. A clear water bottle so sleek, every sip they take will feel luxe. This even has time markers that act as a subtle reminder to keep them hydrated throughout the day — because we love a schedule.
4. An Amazon Fire TV stick with the ability to turn any TV into a smart TV — they can just plug this puppy into the HDMI port, connect it to Wi-Fi, and BAM! Simple streaming awaits.
5. A carrot-shaped water releaser because these orange veggies are good for the eyes *and* the fiddle-leaf fig they bought (but neglect to take care of). This ingenious device prolongs the life of their plants by slowly releasing water into the soil — which makes overwatering/forgetting to water at all a problem of the past.
6. A pair of wireless sleep headphones for anyone who can't fall asleep in less-than-perfect conditions. This plays a steady ~stream~ of white noise or music of their choice in soft headband form, which means even side sleepers won't have to wake up with sore ears.
7. Sherpa-lined sweats to make their legs feel as if they're being enveloped by a large, fluffy bathrobe. If they're dreading the winter and are perpetually cold (#me), then these babies should already be in their wardrobe. It's all they'll wear from now until...well, forever.
8. A premium steel W&P cheese knife that I forbid you to gift unless you present the package with this line: "Who cut the cheese?" This easily slices through Manchego and guarantees the gift of a perfect at-home charcuterie board. Perfect slices of dairy are my love language.
9. A butane-free rechargeable lighter with a long stem, that way they can easily light long candles that are only one-third finished — no more nearly burning themselves in the process. Fare thee well, matchbooks of candles past.
10. A heavy duty pizza stone for dough that looks like it was flipped several times by an expert wearing a white chef's hat. This stone guarantees a delicious crust charred to perfection, which means the frozen pizza you're eating for dinner (yet again) will taste gourmet.
11. A liquid-free, reusable rolling screen cleaner because it's about time they saw what their phone, laptop, and tablet looked like pre- permanent fingertips. A few quick swipes = no more smudges staring back at them whilst they attempt to binge the newest Netflix true crime series.
12. Stasher reusable silicone bags that are leakproof, dishwasher-safe, and an eco-friendly alternative to their usual food storage solutions. That's right! No more unnecessary plastic being flung into the trash after exactly one sandwich contact.
13. Chelsea boots that also would have been dubbed ~ringarde~ had they starred in Emily in Paris. Yes, they're very basic — but in the best way possible. Presenting their new wear-everyday shoe.
14. A Hamilton Beach panini press because life is too 👏 damn 👏 short 👏 to be eating bland sandwiches. This instantly turns any BLT into a gourmet meal they'd easily pay $20 for at a restaurant (full disclosure: I live in NYC; 'tis expensive my friends).
15. A Baggu reusable tote available in several colors and designs; think striped and metallic to prints featuring dogs and grazing cows (the latter of which I am particularly fond of). These are durable, fold up into a tiny square, and will be ~toted~ around with every grocery trip they take.
16. A spaghetti tower so they don't feel compelled to cook seven servings at a time. Not only does this make for a better storage solution (crushed boxes of penne that never properly close = the worst), it even preserves freshness.
17. Smoko slippers that look like potatoes which, tbqh, is reason enough to add to cart. Still have ~cold feet~ over whether or not these would make a solid gift? They're also heated. Heated slippers inspired by something that makes both vodka and a French fry. You're welcome.
18. A spoon holder (and steam releaser!) because read my lips: dirty spoons on countertops. There is nothing worse than pasta sauce cluttering up a work station. Sure, you can get them a spoon rest, but...how boring. And impractical for small kitchens.
19. A ticket stub collector box that forces them to finally go through their physical concert tickets and reminisce about the time in which their teen angst dreams came true upon seeing Paramore perform "Misery Business" live. No more random tickets scattered throughout their room — and this can even be mounted!
20. A daisy egg yolk separator so they no longer have to wing it post-crack — because raise your hand if you've ever bitten into a homemade macaron to realize the additional crunch was an egg shell that made its way into the batter. Get them this. They'll be eternally grateful.
21. A 6-quart Instant Pot pressure cooker capable of turning meal prep into something that is *le gasp* not difficult. This handy thing can make everything from golden lentil soup and mac 'n' cheese to chocolate lava cake and French toast. (Look at them! Turning into Betty Crocker!)
22. An electric wine opener with a cordless, rechargeable design that uncorks bottles in a jiffy: Just the press the button and 'tis done in only seven seconds. That $7 bottle of vino awaits. One single charge = enough power to open 80 bottles.
23. High-waisted leggings, aka the bread and butter of any WFH wardrobe. These provide awesome compression, come in a variety of fab solids and prints, *plus* have over 7,000 positive reviews.
24. A W&P Porter ceramic mug as gorgeous as it is useful (I mean this screams Pinterest board). This is reusable, has a protective silicone sleeve, and comes with a secure lid press which makes this the perfect companion for daily morning strolls.
25. OR! A W&P Porter cocktail glass to give their homemade margarita some extra zhush. It's even equipped with a splash-proof lid because red wine spills while wearing white T-shirts = practically inevitable.
26. A Kate Spade bifold wallet that can store all of their credit cards, cash, and 67 random gift cards (the ones that have a combined balance of .03 cents) with ease — all while the slim structure keeps it from being too bulky for their crossbody.
27. A box set of The Office: The Complete Series because the show is apparently leaving Netflix in 2021, and you don't know how your Dundler Mifflin-obsessed friend will cope. This *even* comes with bonus features and deleted scenes
28. A Remington wand capable of doing the Impossible (yes, Impossible with a capital "I"). This miracle tool allows even the finest, straightest of manes to hold voluminous beach waves: They'll just have to wrap their hair around the barrel, wait a few seconds, and done. Minimal effort required. Several tears shed.
29. A quilted shoulder bag to replace that purse they've been toting around since high school. The inside lining is stained with red lipstick. It's stuffed with receipts older than MySpace. Do them a favor. Present them with this.
30. A splurge-worthy yarn blanket for 15, 20, or 25 pounds of weight that proves an instant oh-so-calming effect. Looking to give them the best, coziest nap of their life? BEHOLD! Here is your answer. *begins to snore at the thought of such comfort*
31. A durable and nonstick brownie pan that adds delicious, chewy corners to every brownie they bake for a dessert that has *just* the right amount of crispness. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to A: order this for a friend and B: order this for myself.
32. An expandable and adjustable wooden caddy tray — it actually has a designated spot for their wine glass. Tell them to picture a fizzy bath bomb and perhaps a good show streaming on Netflix, perched on a sturdy surface that guarantees their laptop won't suffer water damage.
33. An elephant organizer cleverly designed with a ~drainage~ trunk, aka they can store their cutlery and toothbrushes inside without having to worry about water buildup.
34. Dishwasher- and microwave-safe holder stands ideal for soft and hard shell tacos. These babies are perfect for messy eaters, keep toppings in place, *and* make it easier to strategically place said toppings. No more chomping into a section that is all guac, nothing else.
35. A dainty necklace that is the perfect in-between. This basic hunk of beauty is just the stuff when they want to fancy up a plain black dress but don’t want to wear anything too statement-y.
36. A FOREO LUNA face brush made of nonporous silicone to get rid of all the icky bacteria on their skin. It removes up to 99.5% of dirt, oil, and makeup, and vibrates to gently exfoliate and clear their pores. Breakouts? Now a thing of the past.
37. A wireless Bluetooth mic if they do not give a bleep about singing off-key. If they love screaming in falsetto to "Bohemian Rhapsody" or belting out Celine Dion on karaoke night, this will definitely become their new favorite thing. Ever.
38. Silicone nonstick molds so they can make donuts and bagels to their hearts content. "Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime" except you teach via gifting these molds and the fish is actually a carb circle.
39. An ergonomic foot rest that basically *forces* them to improve their posture. Not only will this prevent slouching over their laptop, but it also helps alleviate the back and foot pain they'd experience as a result of said slouching.
40. A silicone popcorn maker capable of making 15 cups of popcorn in under four minutes. They'll just have to add in some kernels, ~pop~ it in the microwave, and their movie marathon feast is now ready to be devoured.
41. A tiered catch-all tray that is as gorgeous as it is functional. With this, they'll be able to finally keep important items in one solid spot — we're talking no more digging under couch cushions to locate their keys. Earring backs won't disappear into thin air. It'll be glorious.
42. A set of Kitsch spiral hair ties — and before you question whether these genuinely pass of as gifts, the answer is a unanimous yes. These coils won't dent their hair, won't feel constricting when worn on their wrist, plus who actually has enough hair ties? No one. Mine have a three-second window before they go missing forever.
43. A compact Dash juicer because they demand OJ fresher than the prince of Bel-Air. This easy-to-use gadget holds up to 32 ounces of liquid and is equipped with adjustable pulp control, aka *they* can decide whether or not they want to eat orange bits between sips (#pulpisgross).
44. A Nostalgia toaster here to deliver the perfect grilled cheese every 👏 single 👏 time 👏. If only Andy Sachs had one of these bad boys: Maybe she would have dumped her whiney chef boyfriend had it not been for the Jarlsberg presented on a silver platter.
45. A leak-proof champagne stopper to keep their favorite beverage as fizzy as the day it was popped. This built-in pressure pump preserves bubbles and therefore preserves champagne, meaning the entire bottle need not be finished on the day it was opened. Now without further ado, can I get a mimosa please?
46. Jumbo silicone ice molds that guarantee a better cocktails-at-home experience. Fancy looks aside, these perfectly shaped chunks of ice take forever to melt — aka, so long diluted negronis and hello beverages that look like something out of a mixologist's handbook.
47. An Umbra countertop tray to keep their cell upright and provide it with a permanent home, plus it functions as a catch-all tray for the random items cluttering up their desk: keys, jewelry, coins, the works.
48. A S'well water bottle that is, quite frankly, much prettier than it has any right to be. This baby is triple-layered with a vacuum-insulated design to keep beverages ice cold for 48 hours and piping hot for up to 24.
