Holiday Gift Ideas

Looking for some unique holiday gift ideas?  Here is a list of stocking stuffers and gift ideas for your beauty queen, your favorite guy, your chef, and your home cooker, your wine lover, your LEGO builder, your creative person, and a couple of things almost anyone would want.

We are an Amazon affiliate and may receive a small percentage of any sales through the links on this page at no cost to you.  Thanks for supporting this website!

I remember when I loved shopping at the local mall and would not have dreamed of ordering so much online.  However, when so many things are available to us now at our fingertips, I find myself ordering more and more, especially at Christmas.  There’s no driving, no lugging packages to the car, no standing in line to check out, and no exasperation when what you really want is no longer available.

Hopefully, this list gives you some unique ideas for your loved ones!  Happy shopping!

 

Looking for holiday gifts for your beauty queen?

 

 

GoldenEye Masks 

These golden eye masks are easy to apply and removal is quick and easy, too. Use the extra lotion in each package to apply on lines. The ingredients in these gel eye pads are Collagen, Hyaluronic Acid, Retinoids, Vitamin C, 24K Gold Powder, and Nicotinamide. One of the reviews of these masks states, ” I teach at a beauty school and we use these as an add-on to our facials. Clients love them.” 

Pamper her with these Golden Masks and she’ll feel rich…

 

  Silk Sleep Mask

So what beauty can’t use a silk sleep mask?  The adjustable soft elastic strap makes this a good fit for almost anyone.  The mask completely blocks out light and effectively improves your sleep.  The sleep mask is made of 100% top-quality natural mulberry silk. It’s also hypoallergenic and hand-washable.

 

 

Cleaning Pads for Your Makeup Brushes!  

 

These cleaning pads are so easy to use. Simply use a brush cleaner soap, put a little soap on the brush head, add water and then just run the brush across the grooves in the egg until you feel the brush is clean.  Reshape the bristles with your fingers and air dry.  The compact size of these makes them easy to fit in your makeup case, measuring 2.87″ x 2.16″ x 1.02″.

 

 Eyeliner Stamp Creates the Perfect Wing

Know someone who struggles to draw perfect wings?  This is ingenious!

This is waterproof, smudge-proof, long-lasting liquid eyeliner. Once you stamp on one side, flip the tool over and there’s another stamp for the opposite eye (they are clearly marked left and right so you won’t mix it up).  Check out this video on YouTube to show how to use these perfectly.

Holiday Gift Ideas For Your Favorite Guys

 

Balls of Fire Gift Idea – Weber Lighter Cubes

Do you have one of those friends or a family member who still has not figured out how to use lighter fluid correctly when firing up the grill?  You know, that guy who consistently serves up meat that tastes like lighter fluid!  Gag!

Although you will be doing us all a favor by giving these lighter cubes to that guy, these are perfect for anyone who grills.  My youngest son loves using them and says they work perfectly.

A Word Of Caution – These won’t help with perfect timing for grilling meats.  Sorry.  The lighter cubes can’t prevent overcooked or undercooked meats but at least the meat won’t taste like lighter fluid!

These actually light even when wet!  They are a non-toxic odorless fuel, fast lighting, environmentally safe, and smokeless. 

If you have a grill master, you might check out this ►manly gift crate I made up for Father’s Day.  You’ll find more inspiration for items for a grilling guru.  There are links to the gift items packaged in this crate, too.

  Bluetooth Car Kit Gift Idea

 Need a gift for someone who doesn’t have Bluetooth audio in his or her vehicle?  Check out this Universal Wireless 4.0 wireless technology with backward compatibility & A2DP profile for Smartphones, Android, Apple iPhone 6 Plus, Google Nexus, Samsung Galaxy, Tablets, and other media players.

 

No batteries are required. It comes with a Triple High-Performance USB Car Charger.

Don’t you think everyone should have hands-free phone capabilities?

Wallet Ninja- 18-in-1 Credit Card Sized Multitool

100% Flat Multi-Tool (18 in 1) and fits in his wallet with credit cards!  How cool is this?  The Wallet Ninja has a lifetime guarantee to never rust, bend, or dull.  

 

Tools that are included within the Wallet Ninja are 6 Hex wrenches, a can opener, fruit peeler, bottle opener, ruler (standard & metric), letter opener, box opener, phone stand, eyeglasses, Phillips, and Flathead screwdriver!

Imagine how handy this little card can be for your guy!

Digital Tire Pressure Gauge

 

You won’t have to deal with the guesswork involved with analog gauges.  The digital display reading is clearly shown and the reading is instant.

A backlit LCD display and a Lighted nozzle come in handy for visibility in dimly lit areas.  You can use this digital tire pressure gauge for cars, trucks, motorcycles, bicycles, etc. but it is not compatible with Presta stems.   There is a 1-year warranty and a battery is included.  What guy wouldn’t like this?

Buy one of these gift ideas for a great present or several for an amazing Christmas gift basket!

 

Presto 03500 Belgian Waffle Bowl Maker – This little device makes 4-inch diameter individual waffle bowls effortlessly!  Imagine all the fruits you can fill the bowl with and top with whipped cream.  The reviews for this little device are mostly 5-star.  Reviewers also used these for cooking egg bowls, cornbread bowls, tortilla bowls, and biscuit bowls. 

Collapsible Funnel Set 

---

Who doesn’t need a little funnel for the kitchen?  This collapsible funnel set is made from heat-resistant silicone. They are perfect funnels for kitchen & cooking use.  These are dishwasher safe.  Being collapsible is brilliant because it takes up so little room in your drawers but included with this set are 4 hooks for storage, too!   The funnels come in a variety of sizes.   These are for small jobs, perfect for the kitchen.  It’s ideal for transferring liquids, spices, or powders to a bottle.

Silicone Skillet Handle Cover

These cast iron handle covers are inexpensive and oven safe up to 475°!  They are made of silicone and are made to protect your hands from hot pan and skillet handles.  Better than the cloth ones, they are great for transferring hot pans to and from the oven.  I love the sleek design of these!  These also come in black and bright blue.

 

Silicone Pot Holders

I love these Silicone Pot Holders!  Aside from removing hot pans from the oven, they make great trivets.  These SILICONE HOT PADS WON’T MELT: They’ve created the new industry standard with their Heat Resistant Core Tech. Every hot pad is injected with UpGood’s legendary 600°F heat-resistant silicone.

When Dave is frying fish on the stovetop, I use these to cover the space between the stove and the counter. The batter and flour don’t make it down through the crack!   These silicone pot holders are dishwasher-safe!  Using these to grip lids makes opening cans and jars much easier.  I like these better than the honeycomb style that seems to trap food particles. 

We’ve also used these to grip wood cutting boards, etc. on the countertop. Do you know how boards scoot across the counter when you are putting pressure on them?  Place one or two of these under the board and problem solved.

Sophie was using a loom the other day and wanted me to hold it for her.  I retrieved two of these from the kitchen drawer, placed them under the loom, and she was able to finish on her own. I love, love, love these!

Can Colander   

This easy-to-use strainer snaps onto a can and you can easily pour off liquid.  It fits most standard-size cans.  You just insert it into the can on the smaller cans and invert it if you use it on the larger ones.  Hold onto the can and the colander, flip it over, and drain off the water or oil.  It is also dishwasher safe.

 

 

---

Fast Herb Chopping

These herb scissors, allow quick and easy herb chopping!  Two snips with these sharp, finely balanced five blades are equal to 10 knife chops.

A comb/cover, which is included, removes clinging herbs with one quick swipe and protects blades when stored.  What home cook or chef wouldn’t like these hand kitchen shears?

Color Mogu Christmas Wooden Rolling Pins Engraved Embossing Rolling Pin with Christmas Symbols for Baking Embossed Cookies

They also have a ‘dancing pig’ and a ‘Christmas symbol’ pattern!  You have to check these out!  Maybe you want to buy one for yourself, too!

Holiday Gift Ideas for The Wine Lover  

Wine Aerator

This little gadget creates an easy way to aerate and pour wine at the same time.  The air-blending strainer will help open up the wine’s aroma.  This is an easy and quick way to mellow and improve wine flavor.  What a great gift for someone who enjoys red wine.

 

---

5-in-1 Wine Tool 

Won’t this make your favorite wine drinker feel fancy?  This 5-in-1 wine tool aerates, pours, and is a wine filter, stopper, and leak-proof bottle stopper all in one.  The stopper reseals opened bottles to help keep contents fresh longer.  With this corker, you can lay a wine bottle on its side and it won’t leak.  Used at some wineries, these must be a good idea and they’re a cheap gift for a wine lover!

Enoluxe Wine Chiller Bucket – Insulated Wine Cooler/Champagne Bucket

This wine chiller bucket KEEPS WINE AT THE PROPER TEMPERATURE.  Made of stainless steel, the bucket fits all standard wine and champagne bottles and looks sleek and classy.  Unlike a typical wine cooler sleeve or bucket, this tabletop wine cooler uses double-walled insulation to prevent drips and condensation from making a mess of your tabletop.  Your white wine drinker will love this!

 

---

Secura Electric Wine Opener

Automatic Electric Wine Bottle Corkscrew Opener with Foil Cutter, Rechargeable (Stainless Steel)

 

Rechargeable electric wine bottle opener!  Simply place this opener on top of your wine bottle, and press the down button until your cork is removed!  Press the up button until the cork is released.  It will open up to 30 bottles on a single charge.  I need one of these!

Holiday Gift Ideas For Your LEGO Builders

Aidan was more than happy to help me choose these LEGO sets.  As he was explaining the ins and outs of these sets, Star Wars, the LEGO sets, and what is included, I’m sure the kid knows way more than I do about these!  These are his picks.

LEGO Star Wars Millenium Falcon

 

What kid doesn’t like Legos and Star Wars?  You can’t go wrong with this 1351-piece set.  Your builder will be busy for a little while!  My soon-to-be 13-year-old grandson, Aidan is hoping for one of each of these sets for Christmas. 

This set includes  7 LEGO Star Wars characters action figures: Finn, Chewbacca, Lando Calrissian, C-3PO, and Boolio mini-figures, plus fan-favorite D-O Lego droids, and R2D2 LEGO figures, and 3 weapons.  (Although this Amazon link says it includes BB-8, it is actually R2D2.  Aidan made me aware of this.  He said this set is the coolest.)

 

LEGO Avengers Ultimate Quinjet

This set is for kids 8 and up and includes 840 pieces.  The Avengers Ultimate Quinjet superhero playset includes 6 mini-figures: Black Widow, Hawkeye, Rocket, and Thor, plus 2 Chitauri.  The Quinjet measures over 4” high, 15” long, and 11” wide.  

 

LEGO Star Wars AT-ST Raider

This set is for 8-year-olds and up, too.   Included in this set are 4 LEGO Star Wars characters, The Mandalorian, Cara Dune, and 2 Klatooinian Raider mini-figures.  You may not be familiar with these characters but your kids will!  Aidan has already requested this set.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

LEGO Star Wars Snowspeeder

309 pieces are included in this LEGO set. 4 LEGO Star Wars mini-figures- Luke Skywalker and Dak Ralter in pilot outfits, a Rebel Trooper, and a special 20th anniversary Lando Calrissian.  

 

LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader’s Castle

This set is for 9-year-olds and up and includes 1060 pieces.  5 mini-figures – Darth Vader, Darth Vader (bacta tank), 2 Royal Guards, and an Imperial Transport Pilot.  The set, including the underground hangar with mouse droid and docking station, is a little pricier but Aidan says it is really neat.  He also says this is the only set that has the blue color on the stormtrooper.

Art 101 142-Piece Wood Art Set

What’s better than a 142-piece art set?  Clearly, one that includes a wooden case for storage!  Sophie, who will soon be 12, has this as #1 on her wish list.  (If she sees the 3-D pen above, I have no doubt she will want it, too!)

The set includes pencils, colored pencils, crayons, pastels, and watercolor paints.  A pencil sharpener and an eraser are included, too.

The art set above does not include a kneaded eraser, which is my favorite eraser for pencil drawing.  These are easy to knead and clean.  You can pull, knead, and shape the eraser into different shapes to remove pencil in large and tiny areas.  Kneaded erasers don't leave residue on paper like regular erasers.  I highly recommend these as an add-on to the set above or a stocking stuffer for your aspiring artist.

Plastic Contour Gauge Duplicator – 10 Inch

It can be used with woodworking, auto sheet metal, auto body, stainless steel, laminate, fitting tiles, checking dimensions, molding, or any job of contour duplication.  (I bought this for Dave.  We are working on a bathroom in the basement and I am sure this little tool is going to come in handy.)
