Ten awesome gift ideas for anyone in your life.
I’ve gathered a list of ten perfect gift « bundles » for the person who has
everything! I’ve been compiling these lists over the past few months to give
you easy ideas this holiday season.
These gifts are great for those you may not know quite as well,
and family and friends you know and love. They’re easily
customizable for anyone from the bus driver to your siblings or parents.
I can attest to all of them! We’ve used all of them in our home, and/or gifted
them to friends and family in the past.

1. For the wine lover:
We are big fans of red wine, and have found some awesome wine-related products
over the years that we use quite often.
This stuff is literal magic. We had a wine spill recently and all we
have to do is soak the red stain with this spray and it disappears. No
scrubbing. It’s gone!
wine pouring disks
to good friends last year — you slide them into the bottle and they make
pouring so much easier and cleaner. They are reusable and you get a TON so
they are easy to break up into multiple gifts.
If you don’t have those little disks, the wine sometimes drips down the bottle
after pouring. These trays will protect your table from red wine stains.
streak-free towels
for wine glasses. They easily get rid of any water marks and make your glasses
sparkle!
2. For the DIY lover:
These little gadgets are truly helpful (I use all of them) and would make
great gifts for the new or seasoned DIYer!
tiny pry bar
years ago and I had no idea how much I needed a tiny pry bar in my life. I
use this ALL the time!
Most projects around the house don’t need a heavy duty tool, so it is
perfect:
universal socket tools that you use with a drill. It fits over almost anything so you can
tighten or loosen everything from cup hooks to wing nuts with ease.
3. For the note-taking lover:
I got my prolific note-taking from my mother. 🙂 I have multiple lists going
at all times, especially this time of year! DIY projects, work to-dos,
Christmas decor ideas, packing for travel…all of it.
It gives me such satisfaction to cross something off my list! (I even write
down things after just to cross them off…I know, weird.)
There are a bunch of cover options, and it has more than 250 lined pages. It
has a bookmark ribbon that is super useful as well.
it. I keep this
elastic book pen holder
on it at all times so my pens are always on hand:
I would LOVE a gift like this! Am I a nerd? I think I’m a nerd. 🙂
4. For the book lover:
Are you a die hard and have to hold a book in your hands, or do you prefer the
electronic versions? I LOVE to read, and finally purchased a Kindle a few
years back. I have to say, I love it! It’s so easy to travel with, and the
light doesn’t keep my husband awake when I read in bed.
— but when you’re situated just right, reaching to « turn » the page was
annoying. (I KNOW. First world problems.) I asked for this
remote page turner
one year for Christmas and LOVE it!!:
Now I just hold the clicker in one hand and it moves through the pages for me.
Laziness at its finest! 😂
Although I enjoy my Kindle, I still love a physical book and usually read at
night. I used to have a book light that clipped to the book, but it was
annoying to move it as I read through the pages.
adjustable book light
is my favorite because it just lays around my neck and I can move the lights
to focus right on the pages. No need to mess with it as I’m reading:
5. For the baking/bread lover:
I gifted this easy package to our neighbors a few years ago and kept one for
ourselves. 😉
Soberdough beer bread
comes in a cute bag and there are a TON of bread options available. It’s
delicious and so easy to make (just add beer or sparkling water and
mix).
Just wrap it up with a bow and you’re done!
The total cost was less than $15 for each family. So yummy, so easy.
6. For the scent lover:
I love lit candles in our home, but with four animals I hesitate to light
them as much anymore. I was thrilled when I found gorgeous warmer options
that allow me to get the scent and the soft glow, with no fire!
I now have a few in our house because I love them so much. There are so many
great benefits of these warmers, but I think the best part is your candles
last WAY longer than burning.
I also love the warm glow (and scent) of this beautiful wax warmer:
It’s just so pretty and comes in a few different color options.
If you have a scent lover in your life, they will love either one of these!
(You can find both of my options at the link above.)
7. For the soup lover:
This is another idea I threw together for neighbors last year, but there are
some additions you could add to make it an even more substantial gift for a
loved one.
That ladle is so beautiful! There are two to a package for just over $10, so
they are easy to split up.
That gift came in at around $12 for each family and they all loved it!
soup cook book
with 200 seasonal soup recipes. I’ve made a couple so far, it is a beautiful
book that any cook would love.
small pasta flakes
have become a favorite of mine to beef up any soup. They’re so little and
light, but add a lot to a meal. Sometimes I just make them with broth, so
good!
8. For the hot chocolate lover:
Who doesn’t love a good hot chocolate? A hot chocolate kit is easy,
inexpensive and always appreciated. (At least at our house!)
Don’t tell our neighbors, but this is their gift this year. 😉 I found the
tins of hot cocoa, marshmallows and chocolate dipped spoons at HomeGoods:
I’ll separate the marshmallows and spoons into their own packages for each
family.
them even more. I got this
metallic honeycomb mug
for a friend’s birthday recently and had to get one for myself:
There are a few different words and design options available. I love it!
9. For the grilling lover:
We like to grill out even in the cold weather, and these items have made the
process easier and cleaner!
large marble spoon rest
in our kitchen, but discovered that it worked great for the large grilling
tools as well:
It stays out on the grill all year round! It’s perfect for the bigger
spatula and tongs we use out here.
magnet hooks
I use for our grilling utensils as well — these little magnets are STRONG
and perfect to attach around the grill.
10. For the makeup lover:
I’m no makeup expert, but after many (ahem) years of wearing it, I do have
some favorites. These would be great for the younger beginner or any
age!
I’m really loving the e.l.f. products lately — namely their putty primer and
stick blush:
poreless primer
is by far the best I’ve found (and for a great price!). I’ve tried a bunch of
primers and this is by far my favorite. It’s so smooth and feels great on the
skin, but doesn’t cause any breakouts.
creamy blush
(I use the Glimmering Guava color). You barely have to use any of it, and it
blends so easily! You can also use it on eyes and lips. So pretty!
makeup cleansing balm
— it melts off eye makeup easily and also feels hydrating. I follow this up
with a face wash at night. I’ve gone through numerous containers of this balm
this year.
makeup brush cleaner
I picked up years ago. It makes easy work of deep cleaning brushes. I haven’t
found anything that gets them so clean so easily.
I hope these gift bundle ideas may help as you shop for family and friends
this season! I only like to recommend items we actually use, and we
love all of these.
These themed presents are great for teachers, bus drivers, neighbors,
friends…anyone! And they can easily be personalized for a loved one.
