    30 Gifts For Others That Are Really Just For Yourself

    I am talkin' about those gifts you can also use and benefit from. *wink wink*

    1. "The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook" — their foolproof way to become the wizard they are in Hogwartz in the kitchen. Just make sure you're around so you can snag some of these magical treats for yourself.

    2. An Instax camera so they can take cutie photos...of you, duh.

    3. A deck of Dream Decoder cards for your friend (and you, let's be honest) who is constantly wondering why they keep dreaming about their teeth falling out.

    4. A mini cast iron skillet to make a sweet dessert for two. (Hint: One of them is you.)

    5. A small box of table topics that'll ensure the conversation stays clear from the weather and never runs dry at a dinner party.

    6. A clip-on LED ring light that'll take incredible photos (read: selfies) that the two of you can share.

    7. A homemade gin kit for the gin to your tonic. You can expect a call from them saying, "Hey, do you want to come over and try the gin I made?" Um, yes please.

    8. And! A cocktail recipe book with over 1,000 recipes so they can master their (and your) favorite artisanal drinks.

    9. A DIY mushroom ravioli kit even a novice cook can work with. And who will they share the finished product with? Their generous human who bought them the kit, obviously.

    10. A pet candle, because as cute as they are, pets smell. Now both of your noses can waft in heavenly scents on wine nights, instead of wet dog.

    11. While we're on the topic of ~smells~, a bottle of Poo-Pourri. It can APPEAR like a gag gift but will turn out to be the most useful thing in a bathroom that everyone can benefit from.

    12. A 16-pack of sheet masks for some much needed R and R that you'll get to enjoy with them — you know, because there are so many in the set that they'll *have* to share.

    13. A cold brew carafe with a removable filter to gift to the coffee snob (could be you, who knows) so you can head to their place for coffee dates and save some $$$.

    14. A technology guidebook for your parents and grandparents, so they can familiarize themselves with "all the stuff young kids use these days." Frankly, it's better at explaining stuff and being patient than you are. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    15. An airtight container that'll keep guacamole fresh for a long time which means there'll always be guac in the fridge — you know, for you to eat.

    16. A DIY animal plushie kit the two of you can enjoy together because it's ~sew~ much more fun to craft in good company.

    17. A pair of trusty, affordable earbuds with over 50,000 reviews on Amazon, because it's about dang time they stop stealing yours.

    18. A suuuper cushy bath pillow to ensure their bath time is even more relaxing. Tip: this makes for a great gift for someone who lives *with* you so you can *also* use it.

    19. Aaaaand, a bathtub tray with compartments for all of their (*whispers* and your) bath time essentials in order of importance: wine, books, iPads, phone, snacks, and soap.

    20. A Mickey Mouse waffle maker that'll make them want to scurry to the kitchen every morning...to whip you up breakfast.

    21. A sloth cooling and heating pad filled with lavender because nothing beats the gift of comfort — especially when it's for your roomie whom you can steal it from when ya need it for yourself.

    22. A set of in-sync lamps they can simply touch to light up when they're really missing their person (you). After they turn theirs on, yours will light up and you'll know they're thinking of you.

    23. A funny card game to take your game nights together to an entirely new level of laughter, *AND* a Mean Girls extension pack because we're goin' all out here, people.

    24. Spicy honey they (and you since you'll be at their house every day) can smother on all their favorite foods since it tastes amazing with everything.

    25. A wildly popular cookbook that'll take them from amateur cook to professional chef once they're finished with it. Dinner at their house!

    26. Himalayan salt shot glasses you will *both* love when you're shooting tequila.

    27. A phone lens kits complete with a 12x zoom, manual focus telephoto lens, fish-eye lens, macro lens, and wide-angle lens so they can take Insta-worthy photos...of you.

    28. A fruit soft-serve maker capable of turning regular old fruit into a delicious ice cream alternative. Let 'em know now you'll be over for dessert.

    29. A journal based on the best-selling book Wonder to give to any kid in your life. It'll teach them about kindness and how to appreciate YOU more. (But mostly the kindness part.)

    30. A pair of lightsaber chopsticks so you two can have a pre-meal chopstick duel to determine who does the dishes afterward.

    Here's to reapin' the benefits from your great gifts.
