Gift Guide for Homebodies
With Christmas fast approaching it's time to start shopping for gifts! I've put together my ultimate gift guide for all the homebodies in your life - although let's be honest, this time of year, we're all embracing our inner homebody a little bit more than usual. These gifts are perfect for those who love spending time at home embracing all things cozy!
1-Coastal Christmas Candle: This soy candle from Serena & Lily has “a festive holiday blend of northern pine, Douglas fir, cinnamon, clove, and woody cedar,” which smells like a winter forest with holiday treats baking nearby! Check out their other candle scents here.
2-Plush Throw Blanket: This super soft blanket has over 1,400 amazing reviews, comes in over a dozen beautiful colors, and is under $40 with Free Shipping!
3-Rattan Tray: This tray (now 25% off! with code THANKFUL) is functional as well as beautiful, and since trays are one of the most underrated decor items, it makes for an unexpectedly perfect gift for the person who has everything!
4-Pastry Subscription: I can't think of a gift that anyone would enjoy more than a 3-month pastry subscription! The first month is chocolate croissants, followed by sticky pecan buns, then cinnamon morning buns. Monthly decadent pastries, sign me up!
5-Linen Robe: The beautiful thing about linen is that it not only gets softer with every wear and wash, it’s also very breathable, making it very versatile for any season. I love the neutral stripes on this one and the long sleeves that are easy to roll up if needed, and if you love coordinating your lounge wear, there’s a matching pajama set!
6-Black Electric Pour Over: This is even better than a typical electric kettle thanks to the gooseneck spout - perfect for making pour over coffee, plus, it looks great on the kitchen counter. It’s also great for making oatmeal, hot cocoa, or for the college student; ramen noodles!
7-Record Player: I love this cream colored record player, and it's even compatible with bluetooth speakers. You could pair it with a few thrifted Christmas albums or some records by the recipients favorite band or musician.
8-Porcelain Oil Diffuser: These are great because the scent is completely customizable depending on which type of essential oils used. I love the small size and minimal design of this one. You can get include a unique scent blend as well. The Grove blend features pine, fir, spruce and cedar wood, while the Pacific blend features Bergamot, Amyris, Basil, Lavender, and Eucalyptus.
9-Linen Napkin Set: I love these pure linen napkins. They’re an essential item to have during any meal or gathering. I plan on using them at my holiday open house this year, shared in this blog post.
10-Pure Silk Pillowcase: This adds a little extra level of luxury to bedtime, as well as protecting skin from extra wrinkles and hair from breakage and split ends - thanks to the smooth texture of the silk. Plus, it comes in many different color options. If you really want to go the extra mile, these sheets are incredible, and silk pairs so well with linen.
11-Hand Carved Wood Bowl: I love these vintage French wood bowls because of their large shallow size - they’re the perfect catch all for keys near the front door or on the kitchen counter to hold fresh produce. I hand selected these in France for my decor collection Trouvé Prop!
12-Handmade Mug: There’s a tactile quality in handmade ceramics that can turn the process of drinking tea or coffee into a more mindful experience. Perfect for homebodies who love having a quiet moment with their warm drink of choice.
