Gifts we love
If someone you know claims to already have everything they need, get them flowers! UrbanStems is one of our go-to delivery services, and you can sign them up to receive multiple arrangements with the customizable gift subscription. Our associate home and gifts editor Nikol Slatinska just sent the Selene bouquet to her mom for her birthday, and she loved it so much she might send her another.
According to Google, searches for The Woobles crochet kits skyrocketed last year. Our home and gifts editor Amina Lake Patel received one of the brand's Harry Potter-themed kits as a gift from her husband last year and loved learning to crochet with it. Now she has one of these adorable plant kits on her wish list.
Sweets are safe crowd-pleasers, and Sugarwish has so many for your loved one to choose from. All you have to do is select the category and size of the treat box before emailing (or texting!) the gift. Next, the recipient chooses the exact desserts, from brownies to candy to popcorn, they want to receive. Patel has gifted and received Sugarwish boxes several times before and highly recommends the popcorn.
If their New Year’s goal is to learn something new, a MasterClass subscription is one of the best things you can get them. They can choose from classes spanning a wide range of topics, from business to architecture. For the sustainability-minded (or sentimental), Slatinska recommends this class on conservation by the late Dr. Jane Goodall.
