The next installment of the holiday guides is one of my favorites because it is all about home accents! Home gifts can be tricky if you aren’t exactly positive what their style is, but there is an array of pieces that are pretty universal. I love putting together a little basket with a nice olive oil and a pretty pepper mill for an at home cook. If you are shopping for someone you know very well, I love picking something out like a fun vintage pillow or a piece of art that they might not purchase themselves.
As always it was hard to narrow down, but I feel like all of these would make special gifts. This is a more thorough guide, but if you are in need of additional gift ideas, I have built out the Gift Shop. You can now see more tabs with options under $50, gift for him and for her. Enjoy!

Art can be a hard gift to give, but there is something about a classic sketch in a pretty brass frame that looks good anywhere!

Pom Stripe Wool Blanket
These blankets look beautiful at the end of a bed or draped over a sofa arm. Even though they are thin, the wool makes them very cozy to use as a throw.
CIRE TRUDON
Holiday Gabriel Candle
I love Cire Trudon candles all year long, but their limited edition holiday jars are so beautiful they look like art. The are very expensive, but last forever and burn so evenly.

Vintage Wooden Stool
It may seem like an odd gift, but a little wooden stool is like a magical home accent. Put one next to your bathtub, in your kitchen as a step stool or as a small accent next to a chair. They’re functional and beautiful.

A lot of kettles look very clunky and stand out with their metal coloring. I love this sleek design that can blend seamlessly into a kitchen.

Condiment Plate
I use little plates for everything. You often see them under my candles which create such a nice layering on a table.

Other than Jo Malone this is the only hand soap I use. I got my mom hooked on it as well and carry a small version of the hand lotion in my bag.
