What a year! The holidays are finally here! And while we’re doing our best to make sure the products we feature will arrive in time, shipping times are especially tricky this year, so we suggest shopping as early as you can.
Stock and shipping times can vary depending on where you live, which product you purchase, and more. So order earlier than you think you need to and be sure to double-check the retailers’ websites for shipping information to ensure that your gift will arrive in time for when you need it.
1. A subscription to Book of the Month because they're going to need SOMETHING to do while hiding inside from the cold weather.
2. An incense holder and backflow incense cones that are equally relaxing to watch and smell.
3. A classic board game hidden inside a book so they can store it neatly on their bookshelf until it's time to humiliate the competition in a ruthless game of Candy Land.
4. Jerky Snob might seem like an ambitious commitment for even the most enthused jerky eaters, but you'd be surprised how fast those bags go once your recipient gets snacking.
5. An ice cream maker ready to help them make ice cream at home. Folks: ice cream. At home.
6. A subscription to Candy Club for people whose sugar tooth can never be satisfied.
7. A Shrute Farms sweatshirt, puzzle, or Kevin Malone keychain for the person who still can't stop quoting The Office.
8. A book full of prompts about why you love your mom/dad/grandparent/teacher/etc. Just fill it in before giving it to them and watch for that almost guaranteed smile.
9. A geode kit because nothing breaks up the monotony of everyday life quite like literally breaking up some rocks.
10. Comma Vintage — a service that takes all the hard work out of thrifting by just sending good stuff right to their door.
11. A toasty fleece-lined beanie because warm head attire is the most important step to a cozy ensemble.

14. Quirky Crate if you want them to live their brightest, most whimsical life by loading them up with cute accessories.

19. A pack of socks with character face backs that 1. look cute and 2. protect their skin from shoe friction.
20. Wireless sleep headphones so they can comfortably snooze while listening to music, enjoying relaxing whale sounds, or trying out that trick from TV where they listen to a foreign language lesson to see if they wake up knowing French. Omelette du fromage, anyone?
21. An adorable set of Tea Drops — loose-leaf tea that's been pressed with raw sugar, and aromatic spices — for a cute and easy tea session.
22. A dishwasher-safe airtight cold-brew maker that'll allow them to keep a caché for morning juice ready to go in the fridge.
23. A fun and beautiful board game where the point of the game is basically to become a thriving forest. *wistfully stares out of the window*
