UncommonGoods Christmas Gifts

I don’t know about you, but for me Christmas shopping isn’t always easy! I hate giving the same generic presents year after year. But thanks to UncommonGoods, buying unique gifts for moms, dads, friends – everyone on your list – is made a little easier. Move over boring, and helllo fun!

Here are some of my favorite Christmas gift ideas available at UncommonGoods:

Picnic Time Drink Cooler / RabLabs Agate Coaster / TheUncommonGreen Glass Set 

CoffeeSock Co. Coffee Cold Brew Gift Set / Catstudio Throw Pillow

UncommonGoods, founded in Brooklyn, NY in 2009, is a pretty awesome company that I was recently introduced to and immediately became a fan of. You can find the coolest items that are perfect for avoiding a cookie-cutter Christmas. And on top of an inventory of unique products, the company itself is doing a lot of good. One dollar from every sale goes to a non-profit, half of the items are handmade and almost all are made in the US, plus the company meets, and/or exceeds, rigorous standards when it comes to issues including wages and the environment. So when you purchase from UncommonGoods you know your money is going to good use.

Four Gifts Under $40

I recently provided a list of four gifts under $25 as part of my 2015 Holiday Gift Guide, perfect for stocking stuffers and Secret Santas. Next up are a little bit pricier items in the $25-$40 range. So still definitely affordable but probably geared toward a closer friend or relative. Here are my top four under $40 picks.
