FNTP Approved Stocking Stuffers
Are you gift guided-out? Well too bad.
I know there is a lot noise on the gift-giving circuit right now, but I am here to make things simple. All of these products I own, or have lusted after and researched extensively. MOST items are from local and/or small businesses, so not only will they WOW your gift receiver, they will help support the American dream.
Clockwise from top lefthand corner:
Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert: my go-to book to give—it’s an easy, motivating read and isn’t for any particular creative, just for people trying to add a bit of spice to their current routine. It gives actionable tips and great anecdotes as to how the creative process can be one of the most intriguing mistresses. I reread it every year!
Baggu Reusable bag: Make grocery shopping glamorous again! Kidding, kind of, but I love all of my Baggu bags. They’re workhorses and I love that they fold up to about the size of a small wallet. I keep one in all of my purses, just in case. This metallic one makes an ordinary, yet useful object that much more special. Plus, you’ll be the talk of the town at Whole Foods when you use it.
The Fullest’s Saffron Latte: A new twist on the classic golden milk latte. Saffron has been studied for its mood-boosting effects and has a nourishing earthy flavor that is incredibly comforting for the colder months. I will never give up my AM coffee, but I love it as a night cap with some coconut milk and collagen.
Motel Keychain, “Good Things are Coming”: As a fan of Schitts Creek and positivity, this keychain is a cute token for all the good to come. Yes, it’s been one heck of a year, but I am entering 2021 with a positive attitude thanks to this keychain.
Air Plant Mystery Box: I bought one of these boxes for myself this fall and loved it! Air plants don’t require a lot of attention or horticulture knowledge, but they can really make your space feel brighter and cozier. There are a few iterations of these boxes on Etsy, I’ve linked one with positive reviews, but feel free to branch out (pun intended). These glass holders make a great companion gift!
Essential Oil Diffuser & Winter Wreath Oil: Okay, so I’m not the biggest fan of heating essential oils, but I love the look of this and I also understand the frustration of not having a portable sonic diffuser. I’d add in these cute beeswax tea lights with my gift. As far as the essential oil, you can’t really go wrong with Plant Therapy’s blends, but I love this the most (they have more Christmas-y blends on their website). I have a $10 off referral for Plant Therapy linked here if you’re interested!
Agent Nateur Coconut Milk Bath Soak: Baths are a form of self-respect, in my opinion. I know they’re not everyone’s cup of tea, but I love their restorative benefits for the mind, body, and soul. Aaaand, I am fairly convinced that this Agent Nateur soak will convert even the most staunch bath-naysayer into a bathing connoisseur.
Perfect Supplements Collagen Packets: It’s definitely not a holiday gift round up without mentioning my boo, Perfect Supplements. They are truly an amazing company, determined to make nutrient dense supplements available and affordable. I love their collagen, which is tested for heavy-metals and glyphosate residue, and I think these packets would make a great gift for the adrenal cocktail lover in your life. Remember Kendall10 gets you 10% off, always!
Beautycounter Charcoal Face Mask: This is slowly becoming my number one recommended product with Beautycounter, mainly because it’s so dang effective and everyone loves it—men and women alike. It has a soothing peppermint scent and vitamin C to help leave your skin calmer and brighter than before.
Sardine Week Sweatshirt: Anyone with A Healthy Sense of Humor would want one of these….Okay, okay, I can hear your eye roll from here. But for all my #sardineweek fans out there, this is the time to buy! I wear mine constantly and people are always asking me questions about my shirt. It’s a great way to make friends! And keep on spreading the good word of sardines. Accessorize with my favorite sardines too 😎.
Silk Pillowcase: Treat your receiver (or yourself) to a luxurious and beautifying treatment each night. A silk pillowcase helps prevent wrinkles and damaged hair. Most say to hand wash and dry….I don’t. The case deteriorates a bit quicker, but in this case convenience > care for me!
The Universe Has Your Back card set: I’ve talked about these on my stories a few times. I love them. They are very open-ended when it comes to your beliefs and are truly just uplifting little reminders. This makes a great hostess gift.
2000 Bristle Toothbrushes: A true luxury for your toofers. Add in my favorite toothpaste and floss and you’ve turned a very ordinary gift into an extraordinary experience.
Cozy Slippers: As a sufferer of hypothyroid issues, anything that will warm my cold extremities is welcomed. I love these because they look like little marshmallows on your feet and are an unexpected diversion from the normal Basic B*tch Ugg slippers.
Gua Sha Tool: I freaking love Gua She and this tool is a personal fave in shape and material (Jade). It comes with a sleek velvet bag for storage and is high-quality, yet affordable.
Kossma Tallow Balm: I talk about this balm a lot, but that’s what happens when something is life-changing. As an avid Aquaphor user growing up, this stuff is soooo much better in ingredients and in effectiveness. I love to use it as an occlusive to my moisturizing routine during the colder months.

Defender Shield Air Tube Headphones: Not to be confused with AirPods, these headphones are actually here to protect you from the EMF-riddled headphone options of the modern world. Using tubes and acoustics, these headphones separate your brain/headspace from the radiation emitted from your phone.
Big Handle Mug & Pique Tea Crystals: I just love the look and feel of this mug. Nothing says cozy like an earthy, minimalist mug. But obviously you have to pair it with a warming and indulgent drink. Yes, you could do the saffron latte mentioned above, but if you want to include something a bit more expected any of the Pique tea flavors are a huge hit.
The Book Club Blue Blockers: I have waaaaay too many pairs of blue blockers, but I love the shape and style of these. In fact, there hasn’t been a style of blue blockers from The Book Club that I haven’t liked. I always vote to make improving your health fun & fashionable, when possible.
Beeswax Candle with Crystals: Someone once said, “nothing says I don’t know you like a candle as a gift,” but I disagree! I love the cozy feeling of a burning candle at dusk. But I refuse to give one riddled with paraffin wax and synthetic fragrances. Which is why I’ve opted for this brand, not only do they use beeswax and essential oils, but their candles also include crystals!
Herbamare: Ah, the product that started this whole gift guide idea. I was using this and thought “this would make such a great socking stuffer!” This herbal sea salt is used widely across Europe and for good reason! It adds a subtle herbal and salty flavor to just about everything and cuts down on you spice rack considerably. Seriously though, if you ever encounter a bland dish, add some of this and, as the professionals say, BAM.
