Holiday Shopping Recommendation

Disclosure: Uncommon Goods sent me some sample gifts in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

Can you believe it? We have only 7 more Saturdays (weekends) until Christmas! Wow, time is flying by. Have you started your shopping yet? Do you have those people on your list where you just don't know what to buy? I think all of us do. I discovered the great place to find gifts for everyone on the list. It is Uncommon Goods. Have you heard of it?  They have an amazing Holiday Lookbook to get you ideas for anyone on your list. They have gifts for men, women, significant others, and so much more. The people I struggle most with are my husband, Steve, and my teenage nephew. They have a section for gifts for teens (over 15). I always have my nephew tell me what he likes at Uncommon Goods because I know it will be something different for him. Otherwise I'll be giving him a check. This year he wanted the Charging Cord Bracelet

I assumed he would prefer the black one. He always wants something to go with his technology. After all he is a teenager and lives for his phone and computer. 
He also started playing football this year so I am going to "wrap" the bracelet in a Thirty-One football tote with his name and number on it. It will be perfect for next year when he goes to college. Do you struggle with any teen boys?

Now Steve is not very into technology or sports and doesn't grill. However he does love maps and space. I looked at the gifts for men, but none of them fit my husband. They have fun ones like these Baseball Park Map Pint Glasses. Many men would love them but my husband doesn't drink or follow pro-sports.


 I did find the Wooden States of America Magnetic Key Holder. I love that I could get one of Massachusetts. These are no longer available.

It is such a neat key holder. It has magnets built in so there are no hooks. The keys "magically" stick to it.

I think he will really like it. Plus it is stylish and our home state. How fun!

They also have categories for gifts for women. There are many wonderful ideas in here and many would work for a female teenager or tween. For example like this Hair Care Holder. It is perfect for anyone who uses a straightener and curling iron.


And what grown women wouldn't want this Bathtime Essentials Wine Glass Holder. Takes a new look on the relaxing bath. 

They also have gifts for kids. There are fun as well as educational gifts in this section. How fun is this Little Patient

They have a section called food and kitchen as well. This has various food from around the world and neat things for the kitchen and cooking. Although my final gift is not in the lookbook food and kitchen section it is from the bigger food and kitchen gifts. The lookbook has smaller selections so it won't be as overwhelming. However if you do not find anything that seems right for your family and friends go up to the gifts in the upper menu and you will find more categories with more selection. The women section there has 1054 products in it. 

This year our plan is to take a special vacation instead of giving many gifts to one another. In fact Hazel wants the vacation in lieu of birthday gifts and Christmas gifts. I wanted something for each of us to open on Christmas morning. I have some gifts for Hazel already. So I got myself the Pink Chai Tea to try. 
I couldn't wait to try it. It is delicious. It is made with tulsi so it is caffeine free. And yes it makes pink tea! How fun is that.


There are many great gift ideas at Uncommon Good and have I mentioned how amazing customer service is there? You will be amazed and if for some reason there is a problem they fix it right away. I hope you will go check it out and get some of your shopping done.
