These guides are geared towards specific interests. You’ll be able to find something for even the toughest person on your Christmas shopping list.
Top 5 Practical Gifts
1) Tear-Proof & Waterproof Notebook
Woodpecker Labs: Tear-Proof & Waterproof Notebook - Blue
2) Silicone Organization Band 6-Pack
Organize, wrap, and corral with packing bands that can help out with many jobs. This set of durable and stretchy silicone bands comes with two of each different size. The bands can be linked to work together, or secure one to itself—there’s no metal parts to cause any scratches or snags. A band fits the bill for tasks like keeping clothes tidy in luggage (there’s even indicators for clean and dirty laundry), sealing open bags in the pantry and more.
3) Produce Preserver (2-Pack) with Activated Carbon
Bluapple with Activated Carbon absorbs and neutralizes the ethylene gas given off by produce to keep it fresh 2-3 times longer than normal, as well as ridding your refrigerator of odors. Just place your Bluapples inside your crisper drawer, on a shelf in your fridge, or in a fruit bowl on the counter, and you're good to go.
4) Ergonomic Craft Blade
ErgoKiwi: Ergonomic Craft Blade - Paperstone
5) Portfolio Document Organizer
