To take the guesswork out of buying gifts this year, we at Somerset Times asked our friends at The Grommet for their latest and greatest practical gift suggestions for 2021.
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 Small Gifts
1) Crown Jewels Ring Holder
Even queens need someplace safe to stash their jewels. This crown-shaped metal catch-all is the perfect place to deposit jewelry, or even odds and ends like hair ties or loose change. Handcrafted from aluminum, each dish is sand-cast and hand-polished to shine, while serving as a piece of whimsical home décor, too.
2) Bathing Petal Flower Soap
A'marie's Bath Flower Shop: Bathing Petal Flower Soap - Holiday Berry
3) Turtle Angel Locket
Create a sense of protection or remember a loved one with an angel locket necklace. Instead of a picture inside, this filigree-like locket holds a chime ball. It makes a subtle, light chime that serves as a gentle reminder of the spirit of someone special. Customize the locket by choosing the color of the ball—pick one with a special meaning or just your favorite color.
4) Personal Teapot & Cup Set
Tea for two? More like personal tea party for one. This simple and sophisticated teapot and cup set is made up of a compact brewing pot with a built-in strainer and a lid that pulls double duty as a cup. The modern-looking set is sized to brew one steep of tea and is a great gift for tea lovers who don’t feel like sharing, but do feel like making the next cup extra special.
5) Japanese Welcome Fish Soap
Japanese soap shaped like a supersized fish makes for a meaningful (and eye-catching) gift. The red snapper symbolizes good fortune and luck in Japanese culture and this sweet-smelling one is made with a traditional wooden mold by one of Japan’s oldest soap makers. Give one as a unique token of thanks or good luck, or hang one up in your own shower.
