    29 Small Things That Have Big Gift Energy

    The best presents (and stocking stuffers) aren't always huge.

    1. A heart-shaped mirror that'll add extra cuteness to their vanity. It'll light up to give them a better look at their visage, and the tray base will be great for their hair accessories or other bits and bobs.

    2. And a set of mermaid makeup brushes they can use to bring all their wildest makeup ideas to life. The set comes with every tool they'll need to apply and blend face products and shadows to perfection.

    3. A slim portable phone charger that'll keep their devices fully powered up while they're on the go. It has enough juice to charge their gadgets several times over, so they won’t have to constantly plug it in to ensure they have a battery backup.

    4. A huggable sloth heating and cooling pad that'll come to the rescue for all of their aches and pains. It can be microwaved or popped in the freezer to soothe everything from monthly cramps to a sprained ankle (and it's way cuter and easier to cuddle than a regular heating pad or hot water bottle).

    5. A glass animal mug that'll make their morning cuppa almost too adorable to drink. They'll be able to see every layer of their latte, and since they're double-walled, they won't burn their hands when they take a sip.

    6. And sachet (or two) of flamingo hot chocolate that'll warm them from the inside out. The white drink mix will turn bubblegum pink when it's mixed with milk or water, turning it into the most aesthetically-pleasing cup of cocoa ever.

    7. A sherpa crossbody bag they can use for toting around all their essentials. It has just enough space for their phone and a petite wallet, so they won't get weighed down by an overstuffed bag while they're running around town.

    8. A Bluetooth karaoke microphone that'll have them performing concerts in their living room (they can work their way up to a world tour). Because it's wireless, they can even take it along on road trips for carpool karaoke seshes.

    9. A set of mini record coasters that'll hold their beverages while saving their table from dreaded water rings. They have anti-skid cushioning underneath that'll prevent their drinks from slipping and sliding on smooth surfaces.

    10. A pack of Korean exfoliating washcloths to help them banish dry winter skin with minimal effort.

    11. A Dash mini waffle maker they can use to finally tackle all those drool-worthy recipes they constantly DM you. They can also get adventurous with it and press cookie dough, hash browns, or even cheese waffles when they want to go off-book.

    12. A light-up DIY terrarium kit for science-loving kiddos that are curious about the environment. They'll get to create their own lil' ecosystem that they can watch grow every day (and the light in the lid can even act as a nightlight).

    13. A wireless scrolling device so they can flick through their FYP without having to hold their phone. It has buttons to move through videos, add likes, pause, and control the volume, so they can stay snug under their blanket during their pre-snooze ritual.

    14. A tube of 3-in-1 Tarte lip balm that'll give their pout that trending high-shine finish. It's an ultra-glossy balm that'll double as a hydrating treatment, meaning their lips will be blessed with some sweet, sweet moisture while they're wearing it.

    15. A reusable pet hair remover for the friend who is always complaining about picking their pet's hair off their outfit and furniture. They can simply dump the fur out when it gets full and it'll be ready to roll the next time their couch or coat looks like it's covered in a fur blanket.

    16. An escape room in a box that'll bring a handful of tricky puzzle activities into the comfort of their own home. It comes with access to a companion app that'll time them while playing ambient, themed sounds for more of an immersive experience.

    17. A mini rice cooker that'll cook their favourite grains to perfection with the push of a button. It'll make enough for up to two people, but its compact size means it won't take up too much storage space (it'll even fit on their desk).

    18. A magnetic grocery checklist for the friend who just moved into their own place. It'll stick right to the side of their fridge and they can just tear off the top sheet when it's time to make a trip to the supermarket.

    19. A pair of stainless steel wine tumblers that'll keep their favourite chilled beveraginos ice-cold for hours while they drink. They're shatterproof and come with lids for spill-free sipping when they're on the go.

    20. A tarot deck that'll get their witchy intuition tingling. They'll answer all of their biggest questions about life and the universe, and each one is adorned with whimsical woodland-themed artwork instead of traditional tarot designs.

    21. A cheeky vase so they can display their favourite seasonal buds or succulents while showing off their love of tushies. It'll also work as a pencil holder on their desk or as a home for their makeup brushes on their vanity.

    22. A TikTok-famous sliding puzzle game that'll give their brain a serious workout. The goal is to get the big red square to the designated spot at the bottom by sliding all of the pieces around. And the pieces are magnetic, so they won't fly all over the place if the game gets heated.

    23. A pack of sticky Nee-Doh balls for anyone who is obsessed with fidget toys. They'll be able to squish them down, pull them apart, and stick them back together for hours of satisfying fun.

    24. An LED colour-changing light bulb so they can change the entire colour scheme of their space without having to commit to stick-on strips or extra fixtures. It can be popped into existing lamps and can flex between standard white and fun colours (including several rosy options) with the help of an app.

    25. A copy of The United States of Cryptids: A Tour of American Myths and Monsters that's packed full of all of the mythical monster info they could ever dream of. They can even use it to plan a roadtrip across America to visit all the sighting locations of their fave creatures (if they dare).

    26. A selfie smartphone toy for the toddler who is always asking to look at yours. They'll be able to see themselves in the mirrored surface and press the buttons to give their "selfie" fun light-up filters.

    27. A rechargeable reading lamp so they can read their fave novel without straining their eyes (looking at you, phone screen). It has three brightness settings and can illuminate their pages from any position.

    28. A mini bag sealer to keep their snacks and treats as fresh as possible in their pantry. They can use it to reseal food packaging after a nibble so their chips, cookies, and crackers won't go stale before they reach for them again.

    29. And finally, a handheld fan that'll give them an extra burst of cool air whenever they're feeling a little warm. The handle even folds down, so they can use it as a mini tabletop fan (perfect for their desk in their balmy office).
