There is something special about finding a gift that is just right. Whether it’s something practical for the home, a little something to make everyday life more enjoyable, or a thoughtful gift for someone you love, I always enjoy gathering ideas that might make Christmas shopping a little easier.
I’ve put together this 2026 Holiday Gift Guide with a collection of things I love, products our family has enjoyed, and thoughtful finds that I think would make wonderful gifts. My hope is that you’ll find a little inspiration here as you prepare for the Christmas season, whether you’re shopping for your children, your husband, a friend, or simply looking for something special for your own home.
As always, my heart is to encourage a simpler, more intentional approach to homemaking and family life. May this guide help you find a few meaningful gifts while keeping your focus on what matters most this Christmas: celebrating the birth of our Savior!

Women’s Gift Guide
This section is filled with some of my favorite things from the past year! These are products I’ve personally used, enjoyed, and come back to time and time again. From little everyday comforts to practical finds that make life at home a bit sweeter, I’ve gathered together the things I would genuinely recommend to a friend. If you’re shopping for a woman who loves her home, enjoys a little self-care, or simply appreciates thoughtful and useful gifts, I hope you’ll find something special here!
10-in-One Record Player – I discovered the nostalgia and joy of records this year!
Soft Holiday Long Sleeve Shirt – I personally have loved these shirts from Shein!
Plant Therapy Passive Diffuser and Holiday Blend – I love including Plant Therapy in my gift guides! They have so much to offer for the holidays. I bought the Christmas tree passive diffuser for my desk at work, and it just adds a little holiday cheer during the holiday season at my office.
Magnifique Slow Cooker – This is one of the few things that I have on the holiday gift guide that I do not currently own and have experience with. However, this non-toxic slow cooker has been on my wish list for a long time and I think anyone would be thrilled to receive one!
Emily Lex Watercolor Books and Grabie Watercolor Set – I have so enjoyed utalizing Emily Lex’s watercolor tutorials. They are easy and great for beginners. The Grabie watercolor set is also my favorite set of watercolors that packs up nicely and has lovely paint brushes!
The Skylight Calendar – How do I manage a family of seven while working full time, running a household, tending to a homestead, homeschooling, and all the things that a mother does? Honestly? The Skylight Calendar plays a major role in organizing and managing everything. From everyday meal planning, chores, and calendars, it helps me manage it all!
Tozo Earbuds – Honest talk for a moment? As much as I would love getting a Bluetooth set of earbuds that were super expensive and nice, how does any mom with littles do that? I lose them too fast with these eager hands! Maybe I’m the only one, but I’ve lost too many even with ‘mom boundaries’ to invest hundreds of dollars! Meanwhile, Tozo offers high-quality earbuds without the price tag! A great fit or stocking stuffer for moms!
Papa Bear Whipped Tallow Lotion – It’s no secret that I love Papa Bear Naturals. A US company with values that align closely with my own! Their whipped tallow is my favorite product that they offer! Use my link below for 10% off your order.
Men’s Gift Guide
Cody James Denim Jacket – The older boys have been obsessed with Demin lately and I thought it would be a great time to share one of Dan’s favorites, his Denim jacket! It’s a perfect coat that can be a bit dressy when needed, but also is practical.
Rechargeable Flashlight – Just a fun, practical item for stockings or a great gift! This one in particular is lightweight and has a high-beam option!
Brave and Bold – We love Marty Machowski’s books written for children. I was overjoyed to discover that he also has a devotional written for men!
Plant Therapy Foaming Soap – So I know this one is odd to put on a gift guide, but hear me out. I try to put items in the gift guide that are favorites from this year, and this one is definitely a favorite of Dan’s. He has requested that this is the only hand soap that we buy now because he loves it so much!
