These guides are geared towards specific interests. You’ll be able to find something for even the toughest person on your Christmas shopping list.
Top 5 Thoughtful Gifts
1) Cross-Back Denim Apron
This denim apron takes a utilitarian approach to keeping you clean in the kitchen. Pure cotton denim is the aprons’ durable base, and there are perfectly-sized pockets for a notebook and pens. The cross-back construction opens up your range of motion and, because it doesn’t tie around the neck, it creates less stress there during long baking sessions.
2) Round Lacquer Serving Tray

3) Indian Tea & Decorative Tin Gift Box
Vahdam Teas: Indian Tea & Decorative Tin Gift Box - Assorted Chai Tea Blends (3 Tins)
4) Stainless Steel Wine Chiller
Pop a chilled bottle into this stainless steel wine chiller—like rosé, champagne, or even sparkling water—to keep it at a perfectly cool temperature for hours. No trips to the fridge or cooler needed, thanks to double-walled, vacuum-insulated stainless steel that also eliminates drippy condensation. Makes a great wedding or shower gift. Cheers to that.
5) Large Vertical Personalized Cutting Board
This personalized cutting board with words makes for a custom gift that is also well-made and functional. Each one is handmade in the USA from maple wood and features a hand-cut expression or name. Whatever words you choose, the care put into creating each board shines through.
