Top 5 Thoughtful Gifts
1) No-Spill Aerating Wine Glass
A spill-proof wine glass that looks as good as it is enjoyable to sip from. Each glass spins on a stainless steel ball, aerating wine—sip by sip—without spilling a drop. (It looks pretty cool, too.) Want to slow things down? Oak coasters hold a glass upright and still. Made in the USA.
2) Floral Cotton Tea Towel
These stunning tea towels are not only soft and absorbent, but also double as pieces of art for your kitchen. Featuring original botanical oil paintings which add a touch of nature to your home. 100% cotton.
3) The Thinking Egg
Orijin Design Company: The Thinking Egg - Brass (Revitalize)
4) New Home Mason Jar Candle
A hand-poured New Home Mason Jar Candle is a thoughtful way to celebrate a new space. It’s Made in the USA with soy wax and a cotton wick that make for cleaner and longer burn time—around 40 hours. A blend of essential oils gives this candle a light, welcoming scent that won’t distract from the heartfelt message it bears.
5) Udon Noodle Bowl
Flavour Design Studio: Udon Noodle Bowl - Mushroom
