We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
1. A clear floating wall shelf because whether they're used to store beauty products, spices, or collectible toys, your giftee will be proud to use these to display their favorite items!
2. An at-home gel nails kit for your mom who hasn't missed a nail appointment in years. This kit has everything one needs for an at-home gel mani, which lengthens the nails the same way acrylics do, while being way easier to apply. This was one of my random midnight Amazon purchases months ago, and I haven't seen a nail tech since.
3. A nostalgic fuse bead craft set that'll make anyone's heart smile — not just those under the age of 11! This set contains plastic beads that your giftee can arrange into whichever design they'd like to create, and then, with the help of some adult supervision, iron the designs, fusing them forever! I used to play with these beads all. the. time. as a child and, trust me, I'd still be thrilled if I were given this gift today.
4. A jewelry-making kit with 28 different natural stones to create rings, necklaces, bracelets, and even earrings! This kit is beginner-friendly, meaning that anyone on your gift list can enjoy this, whether or not they have "jewelry making" listed in the "Special Skills" section on their resume.
5. A pack of two-tier slide-out storage baskets here to be the best gift your friend ever received if they're prone to color-coding, well, everything in their path. This is great for storing bathroom goodies under the vanity, but can also work under a kitchen sink for extra sponges, or in a closet to hold socks and undergarments!
6. A horizontal candle if your bestie is the type of person who wants to light a few candles without having to worry about going through their entire candlesticks. This candle rolls through the wick holder, which only allows the part of the candle above the wick holder to burn. Once the flame reaches the bottom of the wick holder, the candle self-extinguishes, saving the rest of the wax spiral for the next time your giftee wants some candlelight.
7. A gorgeous carafe and glass set for your close pal who has been looking to up the ~vibes~ on even their most mundane things. Yes, a nighttime glass of water can look this cute — but they can even use this to store mouthwash in the bathroom!
8. A colorful wireless keyboard and mouse set, because having an ergonomic setup is the name of the game when it comes to working from home! This is great for your boo, who spends hours and hours at their desk and is looking for a more comfortable (and cute!) way to work. (Pro tip: pair this with a laptop stand and their work posture will be better than ever!)
9. An olive boat and pit port is such a genius gift, you might want to keep it for your own b-day. Upon inspection, this just looks like a fancy addition to a charcuterie board. But, when you look closer, you'll see that the cone centerpiece is *actually* a port for guests to put their olive, cherry, or date pits! Never again will your friend have to worry about their guests carrying around the pit in a folded napkin at dinner parties!
10. A "typewriter" label maker that connects to an app to print labels! This is perfect for the serial note-taker you know who is a fan of functional decor.
11. A marble chessboard because whether they're Queen's Gambit-level pros or just want to spruce up their coffee table, your pal will love this piece of functional decor.
12. A sound machine for your WFH mate who has a mug that says, "don't talk to me until I've had my *three* cups of coffee." This sound machine is equipped with meditations, ambient and nature sounds, body scans, and even bedtime stories to help them fall asleep, while a sunrise feature gently wakes them up according to their circadian cycles. The results are feeling like they've woken up naturally — not abruptly by a blaring alarm.
13. A write-in menu book with breathtaking illustrations that'll go perfectly with your parents' beautiful recipes! This is great if your giftee LOVES touching pen to paper and is always in the kitchen whipping up something new. Plus, it looks like a fancy recipe book! Because...it is a fancy recipe book...just homemade. :-)
14. A sleek 3-in-1 wireless charger, because everyone has that one friend whose phone battery life is always in the single-digit zone. This will help your buddy make sure that their devices are actually fully charged for once.
15. A matcha starter set for your roommate who's always looking to get into tea! This set comes with everything from a sifter and a spoon, to an electric frother and a matcha handbook so that they can have everything they need for their morning lattes.
16. An inflatable fort that, honestly, will be welcomed by any giftee of any age with open arms. This fort attaches to a fan and expands, leaving a bunch of space inside for playing, napping, or lounging!
17. A Stanley traveling pint glass with a lid *and* a built-in bottle opener so that your pal can keep their brewskis cold as ice during barbecues and camping trips!
18. A Basepaws cat DNA test that will be the best gift any cat owner can receive! I just did mine for my little adopted kitties — this DNA test uncovers a cat's bloodline and reveals any noteworthy health and trait markers!
19. A scalp massager for your friend who has a caddy full of keratin masks and hair oils to keep their tresses shining. The truth about haircare is that a healthy scalp is imperative for healthy strands, and using gua sha massage movements can help stimulate circulation, which helps promote follicle health!
20. And a pickleball set, because your cornhole-loving friend will absolutely thank you for their latest obsession. This comes with four lightweight pickleball paddles, two outdoor pickleball balls and two indoor pickleball balls, four replacement pickleball overgrips, and a pickleball bag.
