Every year I plan to get my shopping done weeks before Christmas. One year I even tried to finish before Halloween! But it’s tricky. Especially as we get older. Our friends and family can buy what they need and often times have everything they want. Your best bet to get them a gift they love is to think about what they are doing in their current life; buying a new home, traveling, planning a wedding….this will help guide you to what they could seriously enjoy! No one wants to give a gift that will be thrown in a closet or re-gifted at the next opportunity, it’s takes some thought and alittle help from online gift guides!

Bellacor Home; for the new home owner

This site has, quite literally, everything a new homeowner may need to furnish and decorate their home! They have regular sales and specials so you can get great deals on any gift idea you may find! Right now, I’m loving faux fur throws and blankets for holiday ambiance! Check out this cozy blue check throw here!

RH Bath Towels; for the luxury lover

Ever notice how luxurious you feel after using a great towel at a spa, it makes your experience so much better! These Restoration Hardware Towels are super luxe and give you that spa like experience in your own home. Buy these for the person who already has everything but loves quality, luxury and style! It is something they may not buy for themselves but is a great thing to receive!

Infused Ice Cubes; for the cocktail connoisseur

Ok, I have to admit, I am totally obsessed with these!! They are such a cute addition to any cocktail! There are a number of brands that sell them and there is still time before Christmas to get yours ordered today. I like Herb & Lous “cucumber & watermelon” cubes. Gifting on a budget? Or just love to diy? Make your own infused cubes with your favorite juices, herbs and flavorings!

Jord Men’s watch; for the guy in your life

A watch is something you often see on holiday gift guides but these wood watches will fit the taste of the “hands on” man. The wood gives them a casual feel but the luxury of sapphire glass makes them perfect for a night out too! Sapphire glass is used on choice Jord watches and is known in the luxury watch world as the definitive material for transparency and durability.
I’ve been trying to get Dan to wear a watch for years, but he never really found one that fit his style. This Jord “Conway” with zebrawood and dark sandal wood watch instantly caught his eye! Adorned Homes is partnering with Jord to offer our readers a $25 gift towards their purchase! Access gift code here!

Rocksbox subscription; lets them choose what they want

Choosing jewelry for your lady friends can be tricky but with a Rocksbox subscription they can choose their own pieces and then trade them in for new stuff when they are done! It’s so easy and they will love it because they chose it themselves! Whats better than waiting for special packages to arrive in the mail after Christmas has passed?! To get a free subscription use my code: adornedhomesxoxo

Every single one of these items would be great gifts for the special people in your life! Gifts are the icing on the cake for the holidays, most of us do not expect them but are happy to receive them as long as we are spending time with the ones we love.  It’s the thought that counts! So go on and shop with confidence this holiday season!
