Need a Thoughtful Gift Idea?!

Who doesn’t love supporting companies that provide an awesome product! Those below, for the most part, are reasonably priced and provide a great value for the money. Links are supplied too, but know there is no financial benefit to me with the exception of Pure Haven (You can learn about them below…all plant ingredients and they are what I personally use on my body and around my home). The following gift ideas you may or may not have thought about. These companies that I respect for their quality. Each one would make a wonderful gift, for someone special or that hard-to-buy-for person on your list or maybe even for yourself. They are in no particular order as I love them all!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Chocolate…Need I say more…Not only are these two options tasty but are pure nourishment for your body, rich in antioxidants at 72% or more cacao. The darker, the better for me but starting out, you may want to try the 72% options. Both brands are sweetened with coconut sugar which has 48% less blood sugar spike on your body. One shouldn’t eat the whole bar in one setting, even if you’d like to, but one or two sections most days is good for my body!

Coracao ~ This company has a variety of chocolate options from truffles to bars. What I have had I absolutely love. The truffles are dark, rich and dense in flavor. Either this product or the next are regular staples in my home.

Evolved Almond ~ Sea Salt and Carmel Crunch are my other favorites. They have nut butter choices too.

Leather Purse, Backpack, Wallet, etc. ~ Green Mountain Leathers is my favorite go-to leather store for superb soft leathers with quality craftsmanship and are value-priced. Personally, I carry one of their backpacks as a purse. I’m now on my third one and will order another from this company once my current one wears out. It has a number of pockets, slots for credit cards, etc. Visit their website for details. Here are their backpack options.

Dry Body Brush ~ Love this inexpensive brush and use it each morning. There are so many benefits to dry brushing. In addition to being an invigorating wake-up to your body, as you can read in the link provided, the benefits list goes on and on.

Bluetooth Oontz Speaker ~ So I enjoy listening to podcasts from a variety of Christian speakers and worship music each morning (Rick Warren, Steve Furtick, Joyce Myer, Rex Keener, Crowder, Elevation Worship to name a few) while in the shower and getting ready for the day. It sets the tone for my day and help me get my priorities and focus right. I just place this speaker in the bathroom, and I can easily hear while in the shower. It’s also water resistant and wireless. When traveling, it’s one of the first items I pack too. I can even talk on the phone through it and have not had any issues being heard. In fact, it works better than my old iPhone speaker. They come in different size options too.

Rebounder Small Trampoline ~ There are many out there, found in various locations and online. The link provided is one from Amazon and will ship to your home. Rebounding has many, many benefits for your health. Mine is not outside like this but what a great idea! Personally, I jump a few minutes here and there throughout the day. It’s setup in a corner of my home so it doesn’t get in the way.

Massage, Reflexology, Facial Gift Certificates ~ Who doesn’t LOVE one and/or all of these gift certificates?! You can find a local therapist in your area to provide such pampering. It’s one of my favorite gifts to receive.

Darn Tough Socks ~ My favorite, favorite socks come with a lifetime warranty and are made in Vermont from Merino wool. Yes, you heard right…lifetime warranty. They come in fun colors and patterns and are my go-to hiking sock for all seasons.

Pampered Chef Chopper ~ In general, this company has quality products. You may pay a couple dollars more but their warranty, replacement policy and customer service are phenomenal, along with how well their products hold up. There is so much good to say about this company. If you have yet to try Pampered Chef in your kitchen, this is the item to begin with. In our kitchen, it’s used just about every night chopping garlic or onions for dinner prep! Life changing for sure! Pampered Chef has a variety of helpful, quality gift items. I am not a consultant for Pampered Chef but you can order from someone that is, on Amazon or directly from the company.

Glass, Reusable Water Bottle ~ There are so many to choose from at Target, Walmart or on Amazon. I’ve dropped mine a few times on a concrete, garage floor. To my pleasant surprise with its silicone sleeve, it didn’t break and is still intact today. The silicone sleeve really protects the glass. Don’t be fooled like I once was, they are located in the sporting goods department of stores and not with the plastic water bottles.

Pure Haven ~ This company has a full line of truly clean products for baby, children, men, women, makeup and cleaning products as well as essential oils. Click the link provided to see a full line along with each ingredient in each product. My whole home is a Pure Haven because of the quality of ingredients they use. I’m very particular about what I use and Pure Haven meets my requirements. They are all manufactured in the USDA certified organic facility in Rhode Island. You can visit my website, as I am an ambassador for this company with the link provided, please click here. Use Party ID 274587 at checkout.

Himalayan Sea Salt Lamp ~ There are many health benefits to using these lamps. I have three in my home and love the warm glow they illuminate. There are many to choose from but not all are created equal. You may find health centers sell them too. Click the link provided to find 15 of the best reviewed with the pros and cons on each brand. Like most products, they can be ordered online.

Certainly, this is not a comprehensive gift giving list but these are some of my favorites. If you’re stuck, not knowing what to give to someone, you can find ideas here which can make lovely gifts to receive. If you are particularly interested in one suggestion, please do share below. If you have another idea, share that as well as I’m always looking for new ideas too.

Happy Shopping!
