I debated whether or not to do gift guides this year. They aren’t thaaat different from year to year. Plus they take a whole lot of work! Ultimately I promised myself I’d do it if I had time. Nothing to stress over! Well, today I found myself with a bit of free time, so I decided to pull some stuff together.
I divided the guides into hers, his, family, and splurges. Most everything is under $50, but if it isn’t, it is under $100! Anddd the splurges are over $100. Also, even though I divided them, a lot of the gifts can overlap, so feel free to gift your mother-in-law from the “her” section or something from the “his” section to your girlfriend. Capeesh? Without further ado, here are the guides! Everything but the Primally Pure stuff is linked in the collages, but everything is linked under it, along with some discount codes. Enjoy!! And remember that your presence is worth more than any present!!
Gift Guide for Her
Travel Jewelry Case: What can I say? I love practical gifts! This is great for travel, but small enough to throw in a handbag! Perfect for removing heavy earrings after a long day or when you take your rings off before pilates.
Key Ring: I’ve had one of these key chains for several years now and I LOVE it. Perfect for walking the dog or when your hands are full, but you need to keep your keys out of your purse.
Buffalo Check Scarf: This scarf comes in several colors and patterns. It’s soft and under $20!!
Fellow Mug: We have a set of these mugs and they are great! Double-walled, so it keeps your drink warm, and your hands cool.
Primally Pure Jade Roller: This is my favorite jade roller ever! Also comes in rose quartz and yellow nephrite. Great quality and you can get 10% off w/code ELLEMULENOS.
NuDerma High Frequency Wand: I just shared this in my December Favorites!! I’m going to write a whole review, but it basically decreases the lifespan of pimples!!
Jewelry Cleaner: I always like sharing this, as it is kind of unexpected. Our jewelry is dirty - this not only cleans, but it shines! Just maybe don’t give it to her unless she has a ring already on her finger. Hah!
BKR Water Bottle: I carry mine around everywhere! The liter bottles are my favorite, because they hold so much, buuut they have smaller versions too. Read my review of the glass water bottles here.
Sorel Slipper Slides: I want these so bad! I wear my slippers around the house, but I think these would be better for warmer months. Found them on sale for under $50 too!
Gift Guide for Him
Fellow To-Go Mug: Nick just got this as a birthday gift and it is wonderful. It’s a ceramic to-go mug that keeps it like a Yeti, but doesn’t give your coffee metal test. Just don’t burn your mouth ;)
Everlane Bomber Jacket: This is on Nick’s wish list! It’s a great jacket that is trendy and classic. Can’t beat that it is ethically made and under $100.
Dagne Dover Dopp Kit: To keep his toiletries from the bathroom counter. Duh!
Vibrating Foam Roller: I have this and it is fantastic. My hips and IT bands are crap. This helps so much! Just don’t use it if you live on anything but the first floor of an apartment. LOL
Tie Bar Flannel Dress Shirt: Nick has this (c/o) and it is so cute! I love that it is flannel and goes with the season, but a neutral, so he can still wear it in January.
Primally Pure Charcoal Deodorant: You can’t make a guy change much, this deodorant is the best. Both Nick and my dad use it, andddd it is clean! I wrote a review of it here. Get it for 10% off for ELLEMULENOS.
Mark and Graham Cord Holder: Nick has this too. It’s great for a work bag, but perfect for travel as well.
Primally Pure Beard Oil: Perfect for your bearded friends. This one is non-toxic and you can get 10% off w/code ELLEMULENOS.
Airpod Pro Case: Nick always seems to drop his airpods, so I thought this was a great gift idea. If you still have the older version, they make cute cases for them too.
Gift Guide for Family
Follain Candle: Candles are always a good idea, but make sure you get a clean burning one like this one. Use code ELLEMULENOS for 10% off. Read my post about non-toxic candles here.
Cheese Slicer: We just bought one of these a month or two ago. I can’t remember eating a block of cheese without it! Such a random gift, but once you have one, you know. Would make for a fun hostess gift with some nice cheese, too!
Primally Pure Chapstick: At $4 a pop, get one for your whole family! It’s non-toxic chapstick that smells good and works great. Use code ELLEMULENOS for 10% off.
Blue Light Glasses: With the amount we look at screens, everyone could use a pair of light blocking glasses. I’ve been wearing them for several years and they have decreased my headaches so much. These come in a 2 pack, so even better. Great for gaming, but for regular computer use too.
Picture Puzzle: I don’t enjoy puzzles, but I know so many people who do. You can make a puzzle with any picture you want, which is super special and fun!!
Onyx Coffee Sampler: We are all about good coffee. Onyx is one of your favorites. This sampler is perfect for any coffee lover or for someone who wants to get into coffee.
Snowflake Socks: Socks are practical and easy! If you gift something neutral like this, they can be worn even after Christmas. If you want something a little more seasonal, I love these ski lodge socks!
Diffuser: I have this one in our bedroom and I love it. It would make for a great gift - throw in some essential oils too. I love buying them from Now Foods. Saje are great too!
Dagne Dover Fanny Pack: Trendy and useful. Perfect for travel or just a trip to a theme park.
Primally Pure Body Butter: Lotion is always a good idea. This one comes in a couple scents and is so luxurious. Perfect to make soft hands and give you some aromatherapy too. Use code ELLEMULENOS for 10% off.
Splurge Gift Guide
Senreve Aria Belt Bag: I just bought this and love it already. It obviously wears like a fanny pack, but you can remove the belt and use a chain instead and it turns into handbag! Use code ELLEMULENOS for $50 off when you spend $300 or more.
Dagne Dover Backpack: I have had this backpack for over a year now. I love it for travel, airplanes, and even work! Read my review of it here.
Cuyana Weekender Bag: I have one of Cuyana’s older weekender bag, so I know this one has to be good! Plus I love their “fewer, better” mantra.
Vejas Sneakers for him // for her: These sneakers are on my wishlist! They are sustainably made and super practical. Available in mens and womens.
Fellow Pour Over Kettle: I got this for Nick over a year ago. He uses it every day! Great for coffee people. Did I mention that you can turn it on via an app?!
Fellow Tea Kettle: Nick got me this for my birthday. It heats up for my teas perfectly!
Sonos Speaker: We have two of these speakers and a sound bar. Our “home theater” is great because of it!!
Senreve Envelope Clutch: I have had this since this summer (c/o). It works great as a purse, but also as a computer case. I have even used it to hold my resume for a job interview! See how I styled it several ways here. Use code ELLEMULENOS for $50 off when you spend $300 or more.
What are you hoping to get this season? What is your favorite gift you’re giving?! Enjoy the holidays!!
UPDATE! I added this idea, because y’all loved when I shared it on stories! Like I’ve said, I love practical gifts that you can use! Stasher bags shared their product on instagram with cookies in it, which gave me the idea to make baked goods, gift them in a stasher reusable bag, along with a recipe card! I love stasher bags because they are re-usable, dishwasher safe, and better than a single use plastic bag. You can find them on Amazon, but places like Anthropologie and Urban Outfitters carry them too. You can find recipe cards like these on Amazon, but these and these are great options on Etsy.
