Over the coming weeks, I’ll be sharing some gift guides and ideas for the holidays. I always like to start with the host and hostess gift guide because they tend to be a little more evergreen, and people refer back to them year round. This time around, I also included a more kitchen-focused gift guide that works well for the chef or someone who enjoys cooking!

I’ve designed today’s three gift guides to be mixed and matched. You could simply gift one of the items or combine a few here and there for a larger gift! A few worth pointing out:
- These Marble & Wood Alphabet Coasters or Alphabet Cheese Boards are a favorite each year. They’re great when you’re wanting a gift that’s a bit more personalized.
- Try splitting up these Gingerbread Tea Towels or Kitchen Towels (we have these and love the quality) and use it as “gift wrap” for your favorite bottle of wine or serving boards!
- I also love pairing a favorite holiday candle with a Match Cloche or cute set of matches, tied with a velvet ribbon.

Gift Ideas for The Chef
If you have an aspiring chef or someone that loves to bake or cook in your life, here are a few fun ideas to up their tool game or recipe collection! My 7 1/4 quart Dutch Oven is still my favorite investment ever for our kitchen! It’s one of the only items ever that I’m willing to hand wash, I love it that much 😉

A suggestion from an excellent cook, baker and cookbook collector: You might want to rethink the Half Baked Harvest recommendation. The recipes are not tested and all baking recipes should be avoided. There are multiple issues with this brand and the author. A simple google of HBH and/or the author’s name will give you plenty of information, particularly on the Reddit community. I have quit following this brand on Instagram also because of the sad escalation of ED behaviors by the author. I got sucked into the hype and bought all 3 cookbooks without checking the situation out. Every recipe I have made has been a dud.
