Beautifully Thoughtful Gifts for Dreamers, Makers & Homebodies

Every year I love curating a gift guide that blends practicality, beauty, and meaning — pieces I’d genuinely give (or love to receive) myself. This 2025 gift guide features affordable finds, most under $100, with a few special splurges marked with an asterisk*. From cozy home accents and creative tools to vintage-inspired treasures, these are thoughtful picks designed to make anyone’s day brighter.

Scroll through the gallery below to shop my curated favorites via ShopMy, and don’t miss the “Inspired Ideas” section at the end — a list of creative, unexpected gift concepts that don’t always come in a box.
