1. A marble AirPods case in a range of gorgeous colors but will not also dispel the mystery of whose is whose in your household. It's really pretty. Do you agree?

Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in 19 color combos).
2. A geometric tray they can use to elegantly park the day's jewelry so it doesn't get lost in between walking in the door and putting away everything from the day.

Get it from Amazon for $26.99.
3. An outta-this-world paperweight that'll help them zero in on the right document while they're roving their desk for that *certain* stack of papers.

Get it from Amazon for $44.50.
4. A copper string of lights to shed some ethereal light on most anything.
USB-powered string made of waterproof, bendable copper wire and LED lights.
Promising review: "I bought these for myself and love them, so I've now bought several more for gifts for friends — and they love them, too. They're really long so you can go up and around window frames, bookcases, curtain rods, walls, etc. The USB plug is handy so no batteries needed (I used a USB wall outlet plug adapter that I had around). I also bought the 40-pack of tiny Command clips to secure them to my wall at different angles. I've probably had them plugged in daily for two months and turned them on every night for at least three hours since I bought them — no problems." —Dee Kaz
Get a 33-foot string from Amazon for $11.59 (available in several colors).
5. A luxurious candle in a gorgeous container they can reuse after they've burned through the scent.

Seriously, give them a Diptyque candle and their eyes will roll back in their head from joy.
Get it from Nordstrom for $78.
6. A rechargeable lighter for the candle fiend who also can't get enough gadgets (two things can be the truth at once!). Lighter fluid? I don't know her.
Promising review: "This is seriously the coolest device of my winter holiday. It makes lighting candles a breeze. Yes, there is a weird crackling noise, but that's a super minor annoyance. It's a super intuitive device. Plus the lighter with the USB (included), charge for a bit, then pop it open and light ALL THE THINGS; well, candles. I don't know how well it lights cigarettes or whatever. However, for my personal intended use, it's awesome!" —Jee W
Get it from Amazon for $15.99.
7. And a candle wick trimmer to keep that luxury candle in tip-top shape to make it last.

Get it from Amazon for $9.49.

11. A roll of galactic tape that'll help patch some holes in their life (or the universe).

Promising review: "I love them, and cook with them almost every day! They are durable and easy to cook with. They are a almost hard rubber like material so they're not stiff, but still easy to use! Buy it! You will see what I'm talking about! Great quality for the price." —Daxxsgg
Get them from Amazon for $28.34+ (available in seven colors).
16. A rose quartz massager and roller perfect for giving themselves a pampering face massage with their holy grail face oil.

Promising review: "I’ve had two other jade rollers that both cost about $15 for just the roller — and they were both garbage compared to this one. The jade rolled unevenly, the metal parts kept falling apart. I was fine with it because well, they’re cheap. I lost my last one and went to order a new roller, and this one was a set for the same price of just a roller, so I gave it a shot. Huge difference in quality! This set is amazing, the roller well-crafted, the quartz smooth and rolls well without any scraping noise. Highly recommend." —Ro R
Get it from Amazon for $15.99.

19. A keyboard cover as some insurance for anyone who's always sipping coffee at the computer.

Promising review: "Super cute. Way better than my last, thin, clear one that looked dirty all the time and got warped super fast. This one has awesome color, I was really surprised by the quality. It sits perfectly on my keys and ends perfectly at my touch bar. The color is super durable. I even clean all of my laptop supplies every week with alcohol pads and the keyboard skin was unfazed, it’s a great product." —haylie

Promising review: "This Cuccio milk and honey cuticle moisturizer is truly a cuticle saver. Applying one drop to each cuticle and massaging it in completely will leave your cuticles and hands feeling soft, looking great and the smell is divine. I use it on both my hands and feet and I’m comfortable showing my fingernails and toenails this summer because this product has made it so easy to feel confident knowing I won’t have crusty cuticles." —Rina C

29. Or a five-pack of washable mesh shopping totes for a très chic solution to them always having to pay for a plastic bag. I own one and can vouch that these beauts ball up into very little space but have some Mary Poppins-like capabilities.
Seriously though, I have a beige one and fill 'er up with heavy hardback library books during weekend errands and most anything else that needs to go in there.
Get them from Amazon for $12.98.

My friend Courtney gave me one of these a few years back and I LOVE it. I'm really looking forward to scratching off lots more countries post-vaccine!
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes).

Get them Amazon for $33.14.

Get it from Crate & Kids for $139.
44. Spicy cooking salt from their fave hoop earring jewelry designer that'll really dress up their morning eggs.

The designer loves to throw it on her eggs, but you can put it on any protein, vegetable, or starch for the perfect seasoning.
Get it from CB2 for $12.
And while you're at it, check out her CB2 collection (GORGEOUS stuff) plus some Jennifer Fisher jewelry on Net-A-Porter.
45. An electric kettle they could even keep at their desk for a mid-afternoon cup of tea.

It boils water faster than a microwave and is safer than on a stovetop. It has a 200-watt heating element, fully detachable 360-degree power base with cord storage, and a safe, easy to use design.
Promising review: "I was worried about cluttering my counter. But this baby really is so easy to use, and bonus, there's no annoying whistling or forgetting to turn the stove off. And bottom line...it's MUCH faster. By the time I've got my tea bag ready, the water's done. Plus, it looks awesome on my counter and works with my blue and white decor. It's ceramic, so it's a tad bit heavier than a plastic unit, but I don't care, it's no heavier than a full tea kettle. And pouring from the longer spout is easier to control. It's as functional as it's lovely which makes up for the little bit of heft." —pen
