Gift Guide: For The Homebody

 

The holidays are right around the corner and I have already had so many of my close friends reach out to me for suggestions on what present they should purchase for their loved ones who adore reading but already have everything. This is one of my favorite questions to answer aside from “what book would you recommend for X person?” because I love knowing that I helped select a meaningful gift for someone I care about.

SO — to kick off the holiday season, I decided to do some intentional research and round up the perfect (in my humble opinion) gift guide for that special homebody in your life.

So let’s dive right in.

Coffee mugs

1. Coffee Mugs

I honestly feel like this gift is a no brainer. Almost every human I know loves a good cup of joe and I think these are just adorable.

Candle

2. Candle

I am obsessed with a good candle — they transform the mood of any room and are the perfect addition to any room. These in particular are my favorite.

Weighted Blanket

3. Weighted Blanket

I have heard so many amazing things about weighted blankets — they are cozy and are supposed to provide emotional support. This one would be perfect to cuddle up under with a glass of wine and a good book.

4. Amazon Kindle

Personally, I prefer a physical book over an eBook or audio book, but I think that the Kindle is perfect for someone who is consistently traveling as it is small and easy to throw in your bag when you are on the go.

5. Dry Brush

The dry brush is an essential for everyone — it exfoliates your dead skin leaving it softer and glowing (who doesn’t love that). Not to mention, it feels like a little mini massage!

6. Socks

Remember when you were younger and you got a pair of socks for Christmas and were slightly bummed? I definitely think that we have officially outgrown that stage. I now love being gifted socks and I think these are perfect for a cozy night in.

7. SLIPPERS

A comfortable pair of slippers are the perfect gift for your male or female friends — I feel like they are the one present that no one thinks to buy themselves and are always a welcome addition to wear around the house.

8. HYDROFLASK

This is probably my all-time favorite water bottle. The straw is so satisfying to drink out of and I always notice a difference in my water intake when I remember to bring this to the office with me.

9. PUZZLES

I am such a fan of puzzle books and coloring books. Recently, I have been trying to make an effort to spend less time on my phone and this always keeps me busy!

10. shower caddy

I love taking bubble baths — especially in the winter when it is so cold outside. This one is amazing because it has room for your book, a wine glass, etc.
