Last Minute Holiday Gifts for Anyone!
Kindle Paperwhite – $139.99
We’ve talked about this before in our gift guide for anyone, but it really is a great last-minute gift too! Anyone who loves reading will appreciate this gift, especially if you include a gift card to buy their first couple books! Gift done!
Audible Gift Subscription – Starting at $15/month
We’ve talked about this before also. If your gift recipient is someone who likes to read but doesn’t have a lot of down time, audio books are great. I (Dianne) have really gotten into listening to memoirs/autobiographies through Audible. One of my recent favorites was Matthew McConaughey’s “Greenlights”. He brought so much of his personality in reading his book, it was so much fun to listen to.
Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass – Whipped Cream & Other Delights – starting from $9.39
Aunt Dianne and I did an IV Live with Laura from IV & OD a couple months ago, and they talked about this record. It’s Laura’s favorite record of all time, and named her store after it. Aunt Dianne said my Grandma and Grandpa would play this record during their every-weekend happy hours.
I immediately listened to it, and could picture my Grandparents having a swanky at-home happy hour, and fell in love with the music.
You’ll fall in love with it too!
Victrola Vintage Vinyl Record Storage and Carrying Case – $39.99
If they are into collecting vinyl, then this carrying case is the perfect gift – you can pair it with a vinyl copy of “Whipped Cream and Other Delights” shown above!
Kelsey Crossbody by K. Carroll Accessories – $45
This bag was selected as one of “Oprah’s Favorite Things” for 2021 and we can definitely see why. It has lots of room to hold all your essentials but it’s small enough to make it easy to carry around with you all day. We love the plaid for the holidays, but it also comes in 11 additional colors. She will love it!
Jade Roller – $21.95
The jade roller is great for muscle tension relief, reducing facial puffiness and to help your skin look fresh. Jen bought me one a couple years back and I love it!
Eco Tools Brush Set – $17.09
This is a gift that any woman can use at any time. We’re always needing new brushes and this limited holiday set makes a great gift – it has everything!
51-Piece Colored Pencil and Sketching Set – $41.99 and 100-Piece Art Marker Set – $54.99
If your gift recipient is getting into art, why not get them some art supplies? Colored pencils or these awesome markers are a great choice if they’re into coloring books, or just like sketching.
You could include a blank sketchbook to let their creativity run wild!
What Do You Meme? Game – $29.99
This is a hilarious game that anyone can play! Choose a meme photo, and each player has a handful of quote cards they pick from that they think suits the photo best.
Everyone will be rolling on the ground laughing while playing!
Luggage Cup Holder – $17.99
For the frequent traveler, why not get them something they probably haven’t heard of? This cup holder slips over the handle of their carry-on, and they can easily tote a drink, their phone, (almost anything!) hands-free while they’re walking through the airport and when they get on the plane.
Who doesn’t love being hands-free as they’re dashing through the airport?
Sharper Image Indoor Electric S’Mores Maker – $79.99
This is a perfect gift for this time of year. It’s getting a little cold to make S’Mores outside, so why not bring them inside? This is a perfect gift for families!
Lenox Holiday Sleigh Centerpiece Bowl – $45.22
If you’re looking for a nice and unique hostess gift, this sleigh bowl from Lenox is adorable. You can even add some candy as it’s shown below to make it a perfect gift.
Star Wars The Mandalorian Toaster – $39.99
This might be our favorite of our last minute holiday gifts. This is just pure cuteness….and it doesn’t have to be for kids. I am sure you know a Star Wars fan who would just love this! Especially if they’re not a morning person – this will give them something to look forward to!
National Geographic Photo Ark Wonders Book – $33.99
A great gift for animal lovers. Photographer Joel Sartor is on a mission to photograph all the animal species in human care.
The book’s four chapters — Pattern, Shape, Extra, and Personality — invite us to revel in these photographs, many cleverly paired into amusing and often surprising comparisons, like the catfish and the mouse with the same stripes down their backs, the tarantula and the poison dart frog both cobalt blue, or the tiny lizard and the weighty ox both sporting pointed horns.
We hope this helped you with your last minute holiday gifts. If you still need ideas, be sure to check out these other gift guides:
