1. A wood hanging butterfly poster for clutter core maximalists who are ~bugged~ by bland walls.

Promising review: "I loved it! It was better than I even expected. I bought it for my friend's nursery. It was easy to hang, affordable, and absolutely perfect." —Marylin McCutchen
Get it from Amazon for $24.95.
2. A wild fig and cassis candle set in a *gorg* reusable copper cup that'll be worth keeping forever and ever. What's that delicious aroma? Why, it's the scent of up-cycled gifting success!

I started using Vim + Vigor candles in my own home while searching for woman-owned small businesses. These caught my eye *literally* because I wanted to have copper cups in my kitchen. Fun fact: I ended up getting more because their natural, unique scents are just as great as their packaging. I'll absolutely be buying these for gifts this year...and maybe only keeping *most* of them for myself in the end.
Get it from Vim + Vigor for $28+ (available in two sizes).
3. A clothing history and modern manicure decorative pillow – bold decor your fashion-savvy friend is sure to love having center stage on their sofa.

4. A natural wood end table – you ~wood~ be totally sad to miss out on giving your loved one a unique statement piece this striking. Better just go ahead and get it.

Promising review: "I love our table!! I like the unfinished, rough texture it has. The actual color of the wood is a bit darker than in the pictures but I really like it. It's a small size but fits great for our studio apartment. No it did not come with assembly directions but it's easy to figure out. I did use a drill to put it together. It looks bespoke and rustic!" —AvidPurchaser
Get it from Amazon for $69.
5. A crystal sun catcher – it's gonna light up their life, even when they're stuck inside.
Promising review: "The rainbow halos this casts in the afternoon on my walls is PERFECT! I got (possibly) the best photo of my cat I'll ever take while the sun hit the sun catcher *just* right. I want one for every window in the house now!" —Erin Swanson

This USB-charged alarm clock has a sunrise-simulating light setting with warm LEDs. It illuminates the time and temperature in Fahrenheit or Celsius. And don't worry, there's totally a snooze setting.
Promising review: "I love this clock more than any alarm clock I’ve ever had, and that’s wild because I’ve had a lot of alarm clocks." —camjoll
Get it from Urban Outfitters for $38 (available in two colors).
8. A magnetic lamp with "floating" orbs – unique decor that'll have their minimalist heart all a-flutter.

Promising review: "This lamp is so beautiful it is a piece of art itself. I put it in my family room and it changed the style for the entire room. I feel everything in the room has been upgraded. The light is soft and warm, it isn't to bright or dark and it makes the room feel cozy. It is so pretty it's also nice just as an art figure. Well done." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $69.95 (available in three colors).
9. A quality wood cutting board made with naturally antibacterial camphor wood that is sure to look lovely on display in their place.

I started using Fab Slab cutting boards when I invested in my first really nice knife block set. I wanted a cutting board that would protect the integrity of my knives, and was hoping to find some that also looked nice (my millennial heart loves some good charcuterie) on display. These were the perfect pick! Be sure to check out their site to see their full collection of cutting boards.

You can also get a Michael Scott and Jim Halpert version.
Get it from Hot Topic for $3.50.
12. A porcelain diffuser – a "gift" for your shared apartment. Or more specifically, for those times when you wolf down a bean and cheese burrito and need to cleanse the scent of *yourself* out of the room before your partner gets back.

This uses ultrasonic vibrations, not heat, to create steam. It can run on a continuous three-hour setting or be set in seven-hour intervals. Be sure to grab a pack of aromatherapy oils so they can use it right away!
Promising review: "This is elegant and practical. It's very classy looking and goes great with the decor in my house – it’s white, stone, and somewhat discreet. It was very easy to set up and my favorite feature about this whole thing, aside from the looks, is that it is very quiet! Great purchase!" —Tambra Riddle
Get it from Amazon for $98.30+ (available in four colors).
13. A mini succulent subscription that'll be loved by anyone who wants to grow their plant family.
I am besotted by this subscription service. I already have two mini succulents and they are true cuties! They come packaged well, are easy to pot, and are sturdy little babes! It's such fun to see which little critters come into your home each month.
Get a box of two from Succulent Studio for $10 / month (plus shipping, available in three, six, and twelve-month plans).
14. And an AeroGarden if they wanna start their own apartment farm but only have a smidgen of counter space to spare.

This includes six herb seed pods of Genovese basil, curly parsley, dill, thyme, Thai basil and mint, with a 3-oz. bottle of all natural plant nutrients (enough for a full season of growth).
Promising review: "I got this as a birthday present for my husband, the classic man who is impossible to buy for, and he was thrilled with it. He's a by-the-numbers kind of guy, and followed the directions carefully. As a result, all six of the herbs have germinated, and we are already using some of them (basil, thyme and dill) only three weeks later. One thing: the light is much brighter than I expected. It's bright. The timer keeps it on for 15 hours a day, so hopefully there's a place in your house where it won't reflect off the TV screen or light up somebody's bedroom." —Mary B.
Get it from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in three styles).
15. A complete embroidery kit that's gonna be ~sew~ fun to give crafty family members who would love creating their own decor.

This is my go-to candle for every bath I take. Every time I light it my bathroom smells like walking into a spa. BTW, Le Coco is a Latina-woman-owned sustainable brand and a *great* choice for shopping small!
Promising review: "This smells amazing! This is composed of a well balanced blend of floral and citrus. It is not over powering like some candles. I can't get tired of this one. Makes my space feel fresh and uplifted." —Diane R.
Get it from Pink Moon for $48.

19. A forest green pet sofa sure to look doggone delightful in their living room!

Promising review: "This is an excellent and well-sized pet bed! It definitely fits our 23-pound pitbull puppy with extra room for her to grow into. The mustard yellow is not super bright and more on the muted, slightly darker side, which is more than ideal for our living room color palette. It looks very high quality and chic!" —Lam–Anh
Get it on sale from Novogratz on Wayfair for $130.49 (originally $259.99; available in three colors).

The stuffed chair is also cozy – double win!" —Emily Heilman

Each piece is high quality and hand made, which gives them unique details that truly make a statement.
Get it from Jono Pandolfi for $80+ (available in two sizes and colors).
28. A pack of absurdly pretty toilet paper – a practical gift that'll be equal parts *cheeky* and useful.

I have this toilet paper and to be totally honest, I've only used one roll.

33. A tassel tablecloth that's sure to look elegant and lovely on the ancient kitchen table your S.O. can't seem to part with.

Promising review: "I don’t normally write reviews, but I was pleased with this product and wanted to share. The quality is excellent. The material is thick and sturdy but lays nicely on a table. The color is neutral and light enough to brighten up the dark wood table but it’s not so neutral that it’s boring. The tassels are fun!" —Emily Quinn
Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in four colors and six sizes).
34. A hanging macrame cat bed, because you know their kitto deserves some bold boho furniture just as much as they do.

I highly recommend getting this weighted blanket!" —Holly

43. A freaky cat candle – it's gonna look so cool when they melt it, you're both gonna wish it had nine lives.

Get it from Amazon for $34 (available in five colors).
44. Bespoke Post's Suit box with Grown Alchemist soap and lotion, two plush hand towels, a bathroom tray, and Palo Santos sticks. Grab this hotel-worthy set and they just might feel like they actually *did* get to go on your cancelled friend-cation this year.

I have this set! If you grow fatigued with traditional "floral fresh" soap scents, this is *such* a great set to try out!
