Oh yeah, it’s that time. Time for some gifts to give. And not just any group of gifts, ones I think are a little unique, and will cause some major permagrin once unwrapped, or handed over to the recipient with their eyes closed because you ran out of wrapping paper.
Either way…here you go. (Note: I omitted clothing, swimwear and jewelry, or else this post would be a novel)
Top to bottom left to right.
• Maka Sea Pillows – Beaded, embroidered, or screen pilows from Maui that bring a little slice of paradise into any home. Which is always a great thing. Some of my favorites are the reverse sided ones. And there is no such thing as ever having too many pillows. Ever.
Who is this good for? Anyone with a roof over their head. And anyone who is missing Hawaii, or wishing they were there.
• ToeSox – Toesox are one of my latest obsessions, and are great stocking stuffers.

Someone in your life needs them.
Who is this good for? Anyone who does yoga, barre, pilates, or is a sock connoisseur And anyone who has sweaty feet.
• Rare Hawaiian Honey – This is like the Valentino of the honey world. If Valentino ever went to Hawaii. This is THE best honey ever. It’s raw, organic, and is as good as this sweet sticky oh so good for you stuff gets. They even have gift sets. The lilikoi infused honey is one of the greatest substances on earth.
Who is this good for? Any foodies, your mom, grandma, and anyone who loves a good cup o’ tea.
• A bkr – These are the most stylish, versatile, easy to take with you anywhere, glass water bottles on the planet. Plus they come in a bunch of fun colors, like neon orange, or mint. I never leave the house without mine, and never knew a water bottle could be so exciting. So yes this is gift worthy.

Ok and Garance is the greatest blogger in the world (in my opinion) and I think every office needs some of her briliance.
