I’ll admit that holiday gifts for myself don’t usually make it onto my shopping list. In ordinary times, I set my sights on finding the perfect presents for family and friends. But after another year of pandemic parenting, I don’t feel bad adding a few gifts to my own personal wishlist.
Of course, I’m finding that turning my gift-giving powers on myself requires some creative thought. The first step? Tossing away any notion of what you need (no batteries or shower curtains, please!) and instead focus on what is sure to charm, soothe, and delight you. In preparation for the gift-giving season ahead, I hit the virtual shops to find 10 gift options to give yourself this year.
CBD Bath Bomb
Who among us couldn't use a little more time to ourselves? To make the rare indulgent bath a little more special, add this bath bomb that floats and spins in the bathtub with the relaxing benefit of lavender essential oils and CBD. From a company we love, created by moms for moms.
Elora Long-Sleeve Jogger Set
Get ready for a comfy season with this ultra-soft, two-piece set that includes a long-sleeve crewneck top and matching joggers. We love the versatility of this set as it can be worn while lounging at home or as a comfortable-yet-put-together look for school pick-up or running errands.
The Luminous Capsule
Elevate your cooking, dressings, and more with this olive oil set that includes Brightland's signature Awake Olive Oil, Parasol Champagne Vinegar, and California Orange Blossom Honey.
Hand-Sketched Home Portrait
If home is where your heart is, capture that special place with a one-of-kind, hand-drawn sketch of your current place—or another important spot in your life.
Photo Book
Most of us have probably enjoyed the pastime of scrolling through old photos and videos on our phones after the littles go to sleep. But how about paging through a high-quality photo book instead? This popular pick includes simplified page counts and image layouts make it easy to personalize and create.
