Gifts For Her 2021

It's December 14, so time to look at these great gifts for her and get thee online to order if any speak to you!  I've worked on a nice list of ideas. And if you need more, at the  bottom of the page there's a link to all my past posts in this category. There will be posts on last minutes gifts and gifts of experiences to come but for now read on!

LOVELY BUBBLY

Lollia Dream luxurious bubble bath comes in a truly gorgeous bottle that she'll keep well after the contents are gone - and at 24 fl oz, that will take some time. 

 

The scent is soft and fresh, with hints of white tea, linden leaves, and honeysuckle in a soothing bergamot base. The other ingredients are: Olive Fruit Oil, Avocado Oil, Aloe Leaf, Lavender Flower Extract, Honey Extract and Vitamin E.

Margot Elana sells it for $54 but right now it's 15% off with the code GREEN at check out. 

Anthropologie offered it on sale for $36 but it's not going to ship until January 8... which may be fine if you want to save it for a special occasion.  You can find more pretty bottles of eau du parfum and lotions on sale by Lollia on their site too. 

JUST DREAMY

WOW-oh-wow her with not-your-average pajama set and she’ll be lounging in style. Made with a mixture of cotton and modal, this set is meant to be soft, comfortable and durable — and it’s available a wide array of colors in sizes XS to 3X. Get them at Cosabella for $133.  

NO LIME NEEDED

Mr. Big drinks it. Perhaps he will deliver it too, and pour your first taste. Nuff said. Tequila is smooth, a favorite of women because it's a clean drink with a lot less sugar than wine. My friends on Paleo and Whole 30 diets even partake. The bottle is pretty too. Choose from three kinds on AmbharTequila.com delivered to her door from  $49.99 - $59.99.

SMILE AND SIP

Ok - These are small, but they took the cake for me. Spoil her with these charming, lovely Eiffel Tower tea bags! What a TREAT! Made of organic cotton,  you can choose the tea from the makers list to fill them with. 5 bags per package, for $9.50 from TeaHeritage on Etsy. 

If you want to make a bigger package, the shop has all kinds of other shapes — an airplane,  cloud or moon shape, but you can also get her more Eiffel Towers! This was definitely a one for the blog, one for me gift. TIP: 4 Boxes get you free shipping. 

RAINBOW TOES

Solmate Socks are well made, thick COMFY cotton socks come in unique color combos and patterns. And most are purposely mismatched. I have two pair and they just make me happy when I put them on. And we can all use a little more happy.  Check out the sale page where pairs start at $12. Not all are mismatching on that page, but are vibrant and will make a really great gift. 

I love every single one but as an example, these Snowfall crew socks might be an all-around pleaser, for $20!

MATCHA MATCH

A few years ago, Matcha suddenly was in everything from chocolate to the name of eyeshadow. But it actually is more than a tea, it's a ritual. And to do that, you need a proper bowl and a wooden whisk, as well as some really good powdered Matcha. If anyone on your list is into yoga, meditation or mind/body health and practices, this might be just the gift. The at Home Matcha Kit from the Art of Tea, for $55

RUFFLE HER SWEATERS

The Aileen Ruffle Pullover is Stretchy, heathered pullover with tiny, feminine ruffle at neckline and cuffs, which his not too frilly but sets it apart from the average crew neck sweater. Rib trim. Part merino wool, part cashmere and spandex. Hand wash. Choose from four colors at Sundance.com for $118.

GIVE HER AN ARTFUL 

Beautiful cards, art to frame, puzzles etc of extremely well done paintings at JaneHillStudio on ETSY. Most are focused on women as the subject and take place in some exotic combinations of lush and fun vintage eras. Do check it out immediately as it's getting close to the holidays for small shops!

So much to choose from! If art and there's not time to frame it, you can always write your own coupon to include to say you'll get it framed and matted too, or  give a gift card to a framing place or an art store that has a big selection like Michaels...

Get cards by the box, or solo. If the latter, pick a few that you think matches their style. Blank or Thank You cards are always good to have on hand. Prices vary but can be about $4.50 per card, $19 for a box of 8, and art comes in small, medium or large sizes. Happy shopping! 

THAT LITTLE BLUE BOX

At some time in a person's life, they should get something in that little blue box. And by that I mean the signature Tiffany packaging. Somehow they made this color iconic to mean elegance and something super special. And it doesn't have to be diamonds or cost zillions. Depending on your budget, they have plenty of those, but here's a few little things th

A Bone china paper cups in Tiffany blue with the logo. It IS pricey but just right for someone - who can be her own Holly Go Lightly while she sips. Get a pair of coffee sized cups (10 oz) or a set of four espressos (3.6 oz), both $150 At Tiffanys.

Elsa Peretti sterling silver retractible ballpoint pen for $125

Elsa Peretti key chain at Tiffany's for $75

(FAUX) FUR FABULOUS

Speaking of luxury - without the high price, look at these robes! So cozy and makes anyone look glam even if they are crawling to the coffee pot.

MAKE HER SWOON

Pam Older Designs hand makes some really beautiful pieces in her shop in Newburyport, MA. Choose from delicate earrings, necklaces and the most gorgeous rings.

I love these rich jewel tones perfect for this time of year! The Pyrite and Garnet Jumble Glittering Silver Earrings got for $125, but use CODE 10TODAY for 10% off. These are SUPER pretty in person - not too big and not too small. They will go great with jeans and being light to her face. YES please!

Or get something like this stunner, which is ready to give now: The Aquamarine Signature ring in gold and silver for $325. You can find this shape with a milky green white stone called Prenite HERE.

GOURMET GUMMIES

CBD is all the rage and if she's been wanting to try dummies (or already uses them) Martha Stewart of COURSE has got her own line. There is difference between Canabinoids and THC — the element that gets you high. Essentially CBD is connected to general wellness, but people report being relaxed, balanced and calm - a welcome thing in today's tumultuous world. 

The company statement: "Working with the industry leader in CBD technology, Martha Stewart has developed an innovative line of wellness products that combine gourmet flavors with the purest, safest CBD isolate, derived from 100% natural US hemp." The New York Times thought it was worth writing about, so if you are on the fence about this, it might help to READ THAT.

You can get a stocking stuffer size of peppermint ribbons for $12.99.

Or this petal shaped gift box with several gourmet flavors for $64.99 and lots of other products in-between. There is quite bit of info on each page so you know what you're getting! 

GET YOUR BAKE ON

Did she aspire to bake bread during the lockdown but never got to it? Or did she but would like to learn from an expert? Is she a regular baker who might delight in trying something new? 

Then the King Arthur Baking School Classes would be a fantastic gift! And one you can award last minute. They have live classes in Washington State and Vermont, but they offer a wide array of popular online classes as well. 

Check out the link to learn more - they offer so much for bakers of all levels it's too hard to capsulize. They do have a calendar for Virtual or each in person classes and - you can arrange for a one on one or personal lesson with a group of her picking (friends, fam) from a plethora of instructors (which you can also look through - or let her pick!). 

TIP: They have kids classes too! So if she's a mom she may want to relish the time to herself. But a grandma, aunt or godmother might be tickled to do it with the kids… making memories along with the cookies. 

INNER ORGANIZER

Just right for the person who is sick of digging through their purses, whether for small evening bags that have no pockets or any satchel or tote. Choose from a palette of many colors, and purse size. 

Order from 2 different sizes for $23. And, they'll do custom measurements $26 from Oachy on Esty.

SCENT ACCENT

This lip balm by Finding Ferdinand comes in 8 great colors.  Sheer and moisturizing, it's also scented, and goes for $26. But order fast! It's not sold in stores. 

If you can't find the color you're looking for, you can CUSTOMIZE a color too, for $30. If you're thinking of this, I'd do it right away, and ask about expedited shipping. Dec 15th is the deadline and you can get 10% off your order if you sign up for their emails. 

There'll be new great gifts posts to come, but if you want more ideas now, check out all of my past posts under FOR HER.
