A Completely Subjective List of Things I Think You Should Buy for the People You Care About This Holiday Season Purely Because They are Things I Would Buy for People I Like
Is it borderline too late to order things that will arrive in time for Christmas? Yes but they are so cute and you can either buy them for yourself, bookmark them for another time, or pull the old ‘wrap up a picture of the thing you bought but hasn’t arrived yet. That one is always a classic. Either way, enjoy this list of things I think you should buy based purely on my own tastes.
The Cutest Little Tote
Thank you, Instagram for once again showing me an artist whose work I absolutely ADORE. Initially, I was drawn in by a mug with this same design by Heidi Kenney. I want to buy ALL her stuff, especially the fabric she sells through Spoonflower. The mug, unfortunately, is a limited offering but from what I can tell this tote should be available all the time!

Fancy Pants Pen
Do you want to feel fancy every day? get yourself, or someone else, a fountain pen. I have this one and I love it so much! Additionally, it has a refillable ink cartridge which means less waste! Fountain pens can get stupidly expensive but this one is under $30 and it comes in fun colours.

The Most Magical Ink
Well now they’ve got a pen and no ink, get them some ink! I love Ferris Wheel press not only are the inks gorgeous but the bottles look like magical little potions! If you are indecisive like me you can buy their ‘charging packets’ that have a couple of small bottles of ink.

Stripey Mug
It’s no secret I love mugs. Last year for Christmas my parents got me this stripey blue mug from the UK company Cornishware. It is my favourite mug and always reminds me of Wallace and Gromit. They have tons of colours and sizes if this particular option is not your jam. Also, some of them can be customized!

Vintage Look Thread Box
The absolute need I feel to own one of these Gutterman nostalgic thread boxes! I adore them! Maybe a little too much but that’s neither here nor there. Is this a super specific ‘gift’ idea that most people would probably have no use for? Yes but I already warned you this list was subjective.

The Littlest Book
I love tiny things and I love books so the offerings from Miniature Books USA are a match made in heaven to me. Who wouldn’t love an adorable little copy of their favourite book? They have an Etsy shop as well as some of their teenie tiny books on eBay.

That’s All the Things I Think You Should Buy
Here you are! I hope that what this list lacks in helpfulness (They will not arrive in time please don’t be relying on that) it makes up for in whimsy! I tend to get a stockpile of delightful things in my Instagram saved folder and I love sharing them with you all.
Hope you enjoyed and Happy Holidays!
