I've compiled a big list of gifts for all different tastes and budgets. From quick stocking stuffer ideas to suggestions for Mom, Dad, the kids and many more. I figured if I love these things, then the people on your list might love them too, so below you'll find all of my favorites…
Once your shopping is done, sit back with some of my Easy Homemade Eggnog or Irish Cream knowing that you're ready to officially enjoy the holiday season!
Here's my gift guide for easy Christmas shopping…
***Keep in mind that some of the below are sales items and they may be limited to certan dates so order quickly!

I just got this cute pickleball set for a gift and know she'll love it! (There are tons of color options & it's perfect for beginners.)
You could get her a cute bag like mine to go with it! I get comments about this bag all of the time. 🙂
This foldable travel bag looks awesome and has all sorts of cool features BUT I think I still like my backpack (below) better–go there to look at all the cute color options! (Mine is the 17.3″ one.) I got it before we went to Italy a few years ago and it held up well, is comfortable to wear, has lots of great pockets, and fits under the airplane seat. I use it every time I travel now.
Plant Therapy Essential Oil Organic Singles Kit:
I love my essential oils and I have been very happy with the quality and prices you can get with Plant Therapy. This little kit is a great way to get started on building an essential oil medicine bag. CLICK HERE to get it.
They also have rotating sales throughout the holiday season that will show up when you go to their site.

They have a bunch of colors to choose from too! CLICK HERE to get it. ***BTW, be sure to have a radiation/EMF blocking case on your phone!
I got these for our trip to Europe last fall and they were very comfortable for lots of walking. I just love popping them on quick and heading out the door without messing with laces, and there are lots of other cute colors too. Why didn't someone think of these shoes years ago? CLICK HERE to get them.
There are all sorts of interesting organic gift sets on Amazon here too!

Outdoor/weatherproof Ping Pong Table: this is SOOOO on my wish list when we have room someday!!! It's similar to pickleball and I can't get enough of that either. 🙂
This is one of those gifts you tell Dad is for him, but really, the entire family can enjoy it. Think of the fun you'll have during family tournaments. CLICK HERE to get it.
This natural beard oil would make a great gift (gals love a nice soft beard to snuggle up to you know):
Gifts for the Kids
Kids Wooden Playset: (Made with non-toxic dyes!)
Do you have a little cook who wants to help out in the kitchen, but isn't quite old enough yet? This adorable little set is made from all natural organic recycled Rubber Wood and is colored with water-based dyes. What a great way to stir up their imagination while developing their fine motor skills. (The manufacturer warns of choking hazards for kids under three, but some parents commented they bought it for kids as young as 2 and simply pulled off the parts they were concerned with, like the stem on the pear, etc.). CLICK HERE to get it.
I just got these for my great niece & great nephew for their first Christmas, aren't they so cute?! Look at all the options: my first purse, my first sports bag, my first golf set, my first barn, my first garden set, & my first toolbox. Get it here.
(I also got them these cute “first” toothbrushes.)
Remember making forts as a kid and how you'd want to do everything in them until your mom said it was time to take the “mess” down? Give your kids this quick-to-assemble tent and let them play for hours knowing that it will quickly come apart when you want the family room back. Appropriate for back yard slumber parties, as well. CLICK HERE to get it.
Kids Telescope with Tripod Stand:
Do you have a budding astronomer or scientist in your house? This telescope is great for beginners, easy to put together, easy to operate, and a great price! CLICK HERE to get it.
It's My Life Scrapbooking Kit:
Has your child shown an interest in scrapbooking? This kit is a great place to start. It includes a hard cover scrapbook with stickers, scrapbooking paper, craft scissors and glue. Everything they need to tell the story of their life! CLICK HERE to get it.
***SEE THE KIDS BOOK SUGGESTIONS BELOW!
Gifts for Anyone!
This sauna glow light is great for those who don't have room for a full sauna and want the benefits of sauna/red light therapy!
We got one recently to help with the “winter blues” or even just feeling off since the time change and the days being darker! I'd been wanting one for a while and can't wait to feel the benefits. Get one here & use my KOP code for a discount or for an EXTRA discount when they're already on sale!
Want to learn how to help your family when they come down with something and avoid trips to the doctor? My affordable homeopathy self-study class walks you through everything and is loaded with resources–read more here!
And who wouldn't love their own homeopathy kit! Several sizes and price ranges to pick from. A very thoughtful gift for someone starting their homeopathic journey. (On sale for Black Friday weekend.)
We absolutely LOVE our digital photo frame, and this version can be used with or without wifi. The size of this one is between a 5×7 & 8×10.
I bought this for myself a couple years ago and I'm still loving it: a trunk organizer! I was so sick of junk rolling all around the back of our Suvi. CLICK HERE to get it and choose the size you need.
My favorite massager (with heat):
I don't know why, maybe because I'm working on the computer a lot, but I carry stress in my tight shoulders and neck. This is a great treat at the end of a day and MUCH cheaper than a big massage chair! CLICK HERE to get it.
Your first thought may be: Why would I give someone a water filtration kit for Christmas? Well, why not? Water is the gift of life! There was a big water scandal near us a while back and I'm so thankful we had our system in place. We all need access to clean, clear water, and this system makes it so easy. We ditched our reverse osmosis system (read more about here about WHY and what we have now) and absolutely love this filter because it's effective, economical, and easy to install. CLICK HERE to get it.
BTW, this year we also bought this countertop model in case of an emergency situation so we could filter the water from the creek behind our house. (It's like a Berkey only with a much better filter.)
I love that this candle is made from beeswax and that it will extinguish itself when the flames reaches the clip. Sensible and stylish, too. CLICK HERE to get it. (Another good option in case of emergencies.)
Isn't this a great looking game set? You can't go wrong with so many games to choose from: Chess, Checkers, Tic Tac Toe, Snakes & Ladders, Backgammon, Chinese Checkers, Parcheesi, and more! CLICK HERE to get it.
DefenderShield has so many cool new products now, like a new security/travel pack, a radiation blocking blanket (for kids who are on their phones while watching tv or in bed!), and wallet cell phone cases that also hold credit cards, in new colors, too! One year I bought SIX different DefenderShield products, for myself and our kids. It's a way to protect yourself and your loved ones from radiating Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs) while on a laptop, tablet or a cellphone. More and more studies are showing that our constant exposure to the devices we're all so dependent on can cause numerous health problems. DefenderShields are especially made with materials to block, divert and absorb dangerous EMFs. Visit their site to see all their shields for laptops, tablets and cell phones. CLICK HERE to get these.
~~~~~~
Another EMF protection option for comparing prices, etc.:
Sometimes Defender Shield doesn't have the size or color phone case I need, so I also love SafeSleeve cases and I especially love their wired headphones, because we all know that we shouldn't have those bluetooth cordless ones right by our brains, right? (Not that our kids listen to me, ughhhhh…..)
And they're having a 50% off sale for the Black Friday only! Click here to check them out.

Gifts for the Cook
See all my favorite/safe pots and pans here:
A friend told me about these oven gloves–they make it easier to get things in and out of the oven without fumbling with regular hot pads!
I love this beautiful cutting board and we use it not just for cutting, but for charcuterie boards too! Bamboo is not only strong and anti-microbial, but it is eco-friendly. The large size (18×12) gives you plenty of cutting area, and it makes an attractive serving platter, as well. CLICK HERE to get it.
The cookware all real foodies dream of! I love my 8 quart pot and it'll be your go-to favorite for soups, stews, or Julia Child's Beef Bourguignon. With a rainbow of colors to choose from, you can easily find one your favorite cook will love. CLICK HERE to get it.
KitchenAid Mixer (lots of cute colors to choose from):
I still love my Beloved Bosch with its big bowl and powerful motor that hasn't let me down for TWENTY years now (use the code KOP for a deal on that one!), but why oh why can't it be as cute as this one? Who wouldn't be happy mixing, kneading or whipping if they had this adorable yellow KitchenAid Mixer in their kitchen? It's my favorite color, and a cook's dream come true! 🙂 CLICK HERE to get it.
CucinaPro 16″ Stainless Steel Electric Skillet:
If you've been reading my blog a while, you're probably sick of hearing about this, my favorite pan. It's a huge 16″ electric skillet, which is the perfect size to cook meals for my family of 6. It is my go-to pan many times during the week. They also make a smaller 12″ pan if you cook smaller batches or are tight on storage space. CLICK HERE to get it.
I got this years ago and am still using it, it does so much! CLICK HERE to get it.

Gifts for the Reader
Have you gotten my book yet? Just askin'… Real Food for Rookies:
Do you have a friend or family member who doesn't understand your real foodie ways? Or thinks you are following some kind of fad diet? Then you need to get them a copy of my book! I'll teach them that eating real food isn't a diet, it's a lifestyle, and it is really nothing more than mostly eating foods with no label or just one ingredient. By ditching boxed and bagged food, and returning to our ancestor's roots of clean, wholesome eating, we can find our way back to radiant health. I will walk them through the conversion step-by-step with helpful tips, buy-this-not-that shopping advice and recipes. Your loved one will be a real foodie by the time they finish my book. CLICK HERE to get it.
And here's my newest book, this one for kids: Real Food for Happy Kids! Read some reviews here:
It's a fun rhyming book to teach kids about eating healthy, don't miss the activity pages at the back! 🙂
Get my friend Natalie's Christmas children's book here:

Stocking Stuffers, better candy options or small gift ideas (for all ages)
These wine stoppers go on easily and keep your wine fresh!
Speaking of wine, I just got these washable wine glass markers!
Essential Oil Diffuser Necklace:
The Best Lip Balms: Now in honey vanilla, lemongrass, or mandarin vanilla!
Liver caps or powder: (For those who can't eat it but know they should, YES it's a good stocking stuffer!)
Need some organic candy canes for stockings?
These peanut butter cups JUST went into my cart, yummm!
My personal favorite guilty pleasure… These lemon coated almonds!
They're certainly not a health food or anything, but the ingredient label isn't too terrible. Stupid Costco USED TO carry them, and then Walgreens for a while, but now I can only find them online. It's probably good or I'd indulge too often…
HAPPY CHRISTMAS SHOPPING! 🙂
