Why am I a qualified expert in gifts for a homebody?

Because I am the ultimate homebody. It pains me to admit it, but I am the friend that rejoices in canceled plans. It’s not that I don’t love a good outing with friends, but yoga-pants-on-the-couch-under-a-big-cozy-blanket is just a tough act to follow.  Getting cozy and staying in is my bread-and-butter, so I’ve curated a gift guide of the best gifts for homebodies, like myself. These gifts are so good, even the most extroverted of recipients will find themselves second-guessing their weekend plans.

1. Caraway Cookware set – Beautiful, functional, and free of chemicals, this set of nontoxic cookware will make even the most cooking-averse want to spend a little more time in the kitchen.

2. KitchenAid Mixer – From baking Christmas cookies with my mom as a kid to creating a wedding gift registry with my fiance several decades later, KitchenAid Mixers are at the center of some of my fondest memories.  It is so special to gift an item that you know will be at the center of so many wonderful moments for another family.

3. Half Baked Harvest Cookbook – Tis’ the season of feel-good, cozy meals and this cookbook is chock full of healthier comfort meals the whole family will love.

4. Santal 26 Candle – If there is one scent that is associated with luxury, it is Santal 26.  This scent will have their space smelling exactly like a 5-star resort.

5. Stanley 40oz Travel Cup – Their new favorite emotional-support water bottle has arrived.  Stanley is so confident in their product, they provide a lifetime warranty. That’s right, this cup is for life.

6. Kindle Oasis – The newest Kindle Oasis is waterproof, making it the perfect companion to a luxurious bubble bath – if that isn’t a homebody’s dream, I don’t know what is. 

7.Breville Barista Touch Espresso Machine – Why go for another coffee run, when you can make premium, specialty coffee at home? It’s pricey, but definitely worth it for coffee lovers.

8. It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover – This was one of my favorite reads of the year. Colleen Hoover has a way of getting the reader to be fully invested from the very first chapter. Another honorable mention by Colleen Hoover: Verity

9. Wine Chiller – Keep their wine or champagne chilled for hours without worrying about dripping water from an ice bucket. You can make it extra special by getting it engraved with something special. Their only complaint will be that you didn’t grab two.

10. Wine Glasses – A perfect companion gift to the wine chiller above or even as a stand-alone gift!

11. Plush Robe – Need I say more?

12. Fluffy Slippers – These slippers *quite literally* never leave my feet when I’m at home. These would also make a great stocking stuffer. 

13. Architectural Digest – MORE than just a coffee table book, this is a work of art.  I always reach for this book when I need a little design inspiration to get my creative juices flowing. 

14. Dyson Animal – Okay, this is totally one of those items that I thought was too expensive until I found myself spending MORE buying a new, cheap vacuum every year. Totally worth the investment. 

15. Cozy Unisex PJ Set – These are unisex and ultra cozy.  In my house, it’s customary to gift a PJ set on Christmas Eve and wear them to open gifts the next morning. 

16. Woven Vase – Gifting a uniquely crafted artisan vase and supporting a black-owned business? Yes please!
