Let’s be honest… I know the majority of people following me have a homebody spirit within them, so you’re all probably greatly interested in this gift guide. I hope I don’t let you down with my recommendations! Many of these we either already have in our home and LOVE, or want for ourselves (or loved ones). So here we go!
- Samsung Frame TV (33% off!). I know… it’s a lot to spend on a TV… but it elevates a living room so much. We had a 55″ tv for a long time, and when we moved into our home, my husband really wanted to get a larger one. I told Nate that the only way I would let him get a bigger TV was if we got the Frame. It worked after much convincing. And now I get to look at beautiful artwork (that I can change whenever I want) all day when it’s off, instead of a big black box! Yay!!
- and while we’re on the topic… here are a few of my favorite pieces of art to display recently (only $3!!!):
2. Vitruvi Ceramic Diffuser ($119) and the beloved Capri Blue Volcano scent in oil from ($20)!!! We’re upgrading from the standard Volcano candle to diffuser oil this year. haha. Smells just as good, but is ‘better for you’? Also… lasts longer and you can use every drop, rather than cry in disbelief that the candle, yet again, burned unevenly and left half the wax on the outside edges of the glass after burning down the entire wick.
3. Leather Recliner ($1799) – another investment piece, but probably one of our favorite pieces of furniture. If you’re in the market, and want to splurge a little for Christmas this year… this is something your family members and guests will fight over forever more.
4. Saranoni Blankets and a cute basket. To be honest, you can’t go wrong with any Saranoni blanket… but my favorite material is the patterned lush. We have two throw sizes in charcoal and ivory, and the XL throw in fir. They are HEAVENLY. We also have some in the bamboni material in Ellis’ room. So cozy. Here are a few of my favorite storage baskets for any space:
5. Ninja CREAMi ($199)!! OK THIS IS SELLING OUT FAST. It’s like an ice cream maker on steroids. You can make ice cream, sorbets, and milkshakes in minutes – all with just a click of a button. You’re in control of the ingredients… which I love, because I can’t have dairy, so I can make delicious dairy-free ice creams and sorbets, while Nate can still enjoy his dairy-packed homemade blizzards. You can also buy a slightly older Creami model here.
6. SortJoy storage bins (starting at $24) – A small shop worth knowing about. These are my new favorite bins to use for organizing and storing E’s toys. They’re so simple and beautiful and blend right in to our rooms… making them almost a decor piece of their own, ya know? She also just released a few new products that you’ll have to check out. 10 of everything is on my Christmas wish list, Nate!!
7. Simply Curated candles (between $15-42, depending on the size) – Another small shop I love! The only candles I like burning anymore. The scents are so, so good… not too heavy or overbearing. They have a wood wick and are made out of soy wax. They also burn clean all the way to the bottom! No residual wax hanging on the sides once your wick is gone. AND – the glasses they come in are beautiful and can be rinsed out and used in your kitchen after the candle is gone. Incredible. My favorite scents are Guava Fig, Peony + Salt, and Botanical No. 5.
8. Ooni Pizza Oven (20% off for $499) – these are all the rage right now. If we had our outdoor space all finished out, I’d for sure be buying this as a gift this year. Our friends have one and it is a w e s o m e.
9. Dutch Oven ($80) – the budget-friendly dutch oven that’s just as nice and just as pretty as the big brand name ones 😉 Our favorite thing to use it for is our weekly Sunday roast. Highly recommend this one.
10. Geometry Dish Towels ($16) – We don’t use any other towels in our kitchen anymore. These are large and in charge and do the job right! They also have great designs (of alllllll types) to choose from. Would make a great stocking stuffer or affordable gift for a friend, teacher, neighbor…etc. You can use my code ZOE15 for extra 15% off!
11. Breville Smart Oven + Air Fryer – We use our Breville every. single. day. MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY. We rarely use our full-size oven. This thing does everything you could need, and does a FANTASTIC job at it. And it only takes a few minutes to heat up to your desired temp! It’s amazing. Literally my number 1 favorite kitchen item. You can also shop it here, here and here.
12. Pretty Salt + Pepper Grinders ($80) – I don’t have these, but they’re on my list. Parachute will be running their Black Friday sale at the end of the month and I will make sure to remind you when it happens so you can snag these… or at least tell you significant other to 😉
13. Neck + Back Massager ($25) – This is an extra 30% off right now on Amazon. I just ordered us one. Such an easy gift to give to the person you’re totally stumped on. Or just a nice gift to give yourself as a pre-Christmas treat 😉
I hope this is helpful! I love sharing what we enjoy in our home. Some of these things I literally could not live without. Others are just really great items that anyone would love to receive. Happy shopping, friends!! Let me know if you snag anything above!
