Good tidings to you, dear readers! Do you still have Christmas gifts to get? If so, I have some different ideas for you. This list is a bit of a departure from most blogger guides as I do not use affiliate links—most of these recommendations are tried and true picks that you can trust I purchase for my own friends and family. I’m also wary of promoting excess consumerism, instead I’m hoping to support small enterprises and champion creative endeavors that will delight this holiday season. There are price points for just about everyone on your list, too. So without further ado, release the reindeers!

Booth & Williams Book Collection– Have a favorite friend that is all about aesthetics? He or she already has everything, no doubt. What they might really like is a Color By The Foot collection of decorative books in varying tones of their preferred shade. (Starting at $99)

Petra Palumbo Painted Carafe Set– This a wonderful one-for-you, one-for-me present!
