We all have that person in our lives that we struggle to find a gift for because it seems like they truly have everything they need. But I have found 5 unique gifts that will help elevate an aspect of their life or make it slightly easier. Here are 5 ideas that I think anyone will enjoy, even the person who has it all.
Salts– As I have gotten more and more into cooking I have come to find a few things that really help take my dish to the next level and for me that is specialty salts! It is crazy how something as simple like sea salt flakes can elevate your avocado toast or how truffle salt can make every pasta dish that much more delicious. HERE is one of my favorite sea salt flakes that are under $8 that will make all the difference in your upcoming dishes.
I have been loving our truffle salt that we picked up at our local farmers market from Ozark Forest Mushroom, they are a St. Louis small business so consider checking them out if you’re in the area.
Oils– This is another kitchen staple that I have learned can come in many different flavors and that I myself still need to dabble into myself but have you ever gone to a restaurant and tasted their olive oil when you dip your bread or pasta and it is bomb? Well you can purchase that and enjoy it from the comfort of your home! Now that we are all locked up, why not bring more little luxuries like that into your home for you to enjoy. HERE are a few I have been eyeing myself.
Beverages- Everyone has something that they really enjoy sipping on for a special occasion or for the weekend as a treat. I tend to keep a note of what everyone likes and does not like to drink as I have given this as a holiday gift, birthday gift, housewarming and more! Being able to gift something that they can enjoy and consume I think is the way to go when you can’t think of anything else, just like this one and the previous two. I like to think that when they are enjoying a gift like this they will think of me and that for me is another great gift.
Subscription– Nowadays there are all kinds of subscription boxes, from a one time delivery, monthly, quarterly or even yearly. And oh my goodness they have a subscription for literally everything now and you can easily find something for the coffee lover, wine enthusiast, fashionista, pet parent or someone who would love a curated box to brighten their day. The options are endless on what kind of subscription you can gift them and for how long you’d like it to be for, I suggest really thinking about the person and considering their life, what they like and if this will not only bring them joy but also bring use to their life. Check out THIS SITE that lists out a ton of subscription boxes and categorizes them to make your search easy .
*ONE HOPE WINE is personally one that I am bias towards because every wine they create helps a cause by making a donation with each purchase you make and they have a great subscription program that delivery’s wine right to your door! And who doesn’t love enjoying a glass of wine that helps a cause?! Seriously, check them out HERE if you’re considering gifting something like this to someone or yourself. (their bottles are pictures in the image above)
Donation– Everyone has a cause that is close to their heart, they have donated to, done a run for or volunteered for. Consider making a donation to a nonprofit on their behalf or purchasing something a nonprofit is selling to help them out. Non profits have seen a decrease in donations this year and while not all of us can make a donation, but if you think someone would really appreciate you thinking about them and a nonprofit they support consider supporting them.
I really hope this helped you with deciding what to pick as a gift for that person in your life that has it all! I think any of these would be very thoughtful yet useful gifts.
