The Lex Eats Gift Guide

It’s that time of year… let the holiday shopping commence! I love giving people gifts. I Christmas shop all year round; if I see something perfect for someone, I just buy it! There’s nothing I hate more than going to the mall knowing you need a gift that day and not a clue of what to buy. I like to make gifting personal and find just the right thing for someone. I’ve rounded up a few of my gifting ideas for the cooks and food lovers in your life and just fun gift ideas for your girlfriends/daughters etc! Basically this is just a list of things I love…

1. Julia Child Quote Print: One of my favorite quotes! This print can be downloaded from Etsy and printed right at home! Just pop it in a cute frame from TJ Maxx or Target and you’re set! $5
2. Stella & Dot Bag Charm: My mom sells Stella & Dot jewelry so I’m always gifting their affordable, high quality jewelry to friends! This colorful tassel charm would perk up any bag. A great stocking stuffer or gift for your girlfriends. $44
3. Joseph & Joseph Nesting Bowls: Joseph & Joseph is one of my favorite kitchen brands. They are so innovative and brightfully colored! This set of nesting bowls and measuring cups/spoons is a great gift for a college student or small apartment-dweller. I have the measuring cups and spoons and they perfectly fit in my utensil drawer! PS.. free shipping on Amazon Prime! $29.50
4. Set of Three Mixer Ornaments: How adorbs are these mixer ornaments? I need them for my tree. Perfect gift for the baker in your life! $10.47
5. Home Sweet Home Doormat: I couldn’t not buy this doormat from Target. The perfect gift for a new homeowner! $12.99
6. Gray Malin Swell Bottle: I’m kind of obsessed with Gray Malin. If you’ve never seen his art, check it out! While a print will set you back a few bucks, this adorable Swell bottle is a fun way to carry around a little piece of his art every day. And the Swell bottles keep things cold for 24 hours, super handy! $42
7. Draper James Coaster Set: Entertain like Reese Witherspoon! Draper James is Reese’s brand and very Southern. These plaid porcelain coasters with witty sayings on them make a great hostess gift. $28
8. Dean & Deluca Gift Box: When I lived in New York I worked a few blocks away from Dean & Deluca for a bit. It was dangerous for my wallet, but such a treat to pop in during lunch for something delicious! This box containing some of their best sellers would be a great gift to send to out of town family. They have all kind of gift box selections on their website, too! $229
9. Gold Measuring Spoons: I mean, how can you not?! I had to resist the urge to buy these from Target (and the matching measuring cups) since I already have a perfectly good set, but how much cuter are these gold ones! A great stocking stuffer! $4.99
10. Blah Blah Blah Glass: These adorable glasses would make make anyone happy! I thought these would be a great gift for an office friend or gal pal. $12.99
11. Gold Pineapple Salt & Pepper Shakers: As you can tell, I have a thing for gold accents. These trendy salt and pepper shakers are a fun way to liven up anyone’s kitchen! $5.99
12. Anthropologie Honey Bear: Another fun gold thing to add to your kitchen. And at only $20 from Anthro, you’re doing pretty good! $20
13. Kate Spade ‘A Little Bit of This’ Canister: Got to love a witty saying on some kitchen utensils. I’m hoping Santa will bring me this one 😉 $30
14. Kate Spade ‘A Little Bit of That’ Canister: Make it a set! $25
15. White Marble Cutting Board: This cutting board is everything I love.. copper and marble just waiting to add some cheese to it! Perfect for entertaining and so pretty that you will want to keep it out on your counter all the time. Would make a great hostess gift as well! $39.96
