I don't know where the year went, but I know it's time to get in gear and start my shopping quick!
I've compiled a great list of gifts for all different tastes and budgets. From quick stocking stuffer ideas to suggestions for Mom, Dad, the kids and much more. I figured if I love these things, then the people on your list might love them too, so here are all of my favorites.
So get your shopping done in one easy sweep, and then sit back with some of my Easy Homemade Eggnog or Irish Cream knowing that you're all done and you can officially enjoy the holiday season.
Here's my gift guide for easy Christmas shopping…
The following are “jump links”, so if you click one, it'll take you right to that section. Or you could just scroll through and peek at them all if you'd like. 🙂 Note that this post includes affiliate links, so for example, if you click on something that takes you to Amazon, I'll get a very small piece of Amazon's huge pie if you buy something, but the price is no different for you–and thank you for helping to support my small business!

I've been checking out this waterless essential oil diffuser:
I get sick of refilling water in diffusers all of the time. I know, I know, it's not that big of a deal. But I'm thinking about trying this one. CLICK HERE for the waterless diffuser.
Plant Therapy Essential Oil Organic Singles Kit:
I love, love, 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.

I got the all black for our trip to Europe in September and they were very comfortable for lots of walking.

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.
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 astonomer 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.

I bought this for myself last year and 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's been a big water scandal near us lately and I'm so thankful we've got 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 it here and what we have) and absolutely love this filter because it's effective, economical, and easy to install. Once you learn more about this water filter, you may find yourself buying one for everyone on your list! 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 much better.)
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: Checkers, Chess, Chinese Checkers, Parcheesi, TicTacToe, SOlitaire, Snakes and Ladders, Mancala, Backgammon, Poker Dice, Playing Cards, Go Fish, Old Maid, and Dominos! 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.

Weighted blankets are great for anxiety, insomnia, and to help you relax and sleep better. They can lower stress and create a calm feeling–I know two people who said it has helped with these very things!
Gifts for the Cook
I just got this safe non-stick frying pan for our son–we love ours:
(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.

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 makes 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.
