 Hey y'all, what's up? My name is Sonali. Welcome to my channel. If you guys are new, I have my Christmas tree set up in the back. We literally just set it up last night. I'm so excited about it. This is my first Christmas tree ever, like between me and Ryan, because we've been in apartments before this and we never had a place to store a Christmas tree. And now we have storage for it. So I'm getting in the Christmas spirit and I thought I would film a little holiday gift guide video for you guys. In this video, I'm gonna be sharing gifts for the homeowner or the host, literally anything in that realm. I'm actually going to a housewarming party this Friday. So I'm gonna do a little brainstorming research myself. So I thought I would share it with you guys. I'm so excited because Wayfarer is actually sponsoring this video. They are doing Black Friday early access so you can literally shop now, which is honestly perfect because holiday parties start so early now and you never wanna come empty handed. You can score on home deals up to 70% off plus fast and free shipping. Also Wayfarer doesn't only have just like furniture and home decor. You'll see in this video just some of the categories that you can shop on Wayfarer, but I will be on Wayfarer a lot this month. Trying to score the best deals for burn shirt because I feel like we have a lot of empty spaces kind of in this home that I need to fill starting with the dining room. Need to find the dining room table. That is on the to-do list. I wanna share gifts with you guys in all different price ranges depending on you know, if you're closer to someone maybe you'll spend a little bit more. But we're starting off with a mortar and pestle and I didn't really like think of this until I saw this gorgeous green marble looking one. And I actually have very fond memories of like this random kitchen tool because I just remember that was like my only job as a child in the kitchen with my mom. I'd be grinding up the spices and I thought it was so fun but also you can use it as like a styling piece in your kitchen. I feel like I've been seeing, especially on Pinterest so many photos of a styled kitchen. Thought it'd be fun to give you guys some suggestions on what to pair these gifts with to make it a little bit more thoughtful. So this mortar and pestle obviously you can grind up spices in it. So I was thinking like getting a unique spices kit of some sort or even just like one spice that you love that maybe they don't really have in their cabinet because it's more unique. Next gift for a host would be a wooden book stand. I think this is so adorable because again, not only is it practical but it is so freaking cute. And then you can pair like your favorite cookbook or maybe a cookbook that's trending maybe a holiday cookbook or you can even hand write some recipes. I've seen so many people do this and I think that is so thoughtful. I feel like anything handwritten these days is like, oh my God, you've actually put in some effort into this gift. Next up is a set of coasters which honestly is a little bit basic. I know, I know, but I feel like now that I'm older I care more about my furniture. I actually want people to use the coasters. Like when I was a kid, I'm like, ah, I don't need a coaster, like whatever. But now that I'm paying for my furniture, yeah, I want it to last and I don't want any of those rings on it. And now I also kind of look at them as decor pieces. You can get some really beautiful marble ones. Like I said, the coasters are kind of basic so to elevate this gift I would pair it with a cocktail-making kit. You can bind these like pretty much anywhere or you can make your own with like a nice high-quality mixer. Maybe they can use their own alcohol but just maybe like some garnishes. Next up are these colored wine glasses and I feel like this has been all over my 4U page on TikTok recently. I think this is the perfect gift to give someone who is in college or just gone out of college. It's giving like cute little girls my invites and you can pair it with bottled wine. Next up is any kind of like Christmasy activity. I was thinking Christmas cookie cutters because I personally don't think I would like spend a ton of money on this but it would be so nice to have just for the traditions around this time of year. You could present it in a basket full of baking ingredients and even like with a handwritten card for your favorite cookie recipe that would be so freaking cute. Younger me would laugh that I'm putting this on my holiday gift guide but it is ornaments and the only reason I'm saying that is because I vividly remember being in Girl Scouts and we would do white elephant every single year. I would get like no pets to whoever bought them but I would get the worst ornaments and I was like, what, 10? I don't need an ornament. Like I don't want an ornament at 10 years old and other kids got like candy and fun stuff and I was like, what the heck? I don't want an ornament. But now I'm realizing how pricey things can get and nice ornaments are like even those like fun little detailed kitschy ones like are so cute. I think it would be so sentimental if you got an ornament that like kind of represents your friends. So for example, I'm a photographer. So if someone got me an ornament having to do with like photography, like camera or like a little film strip I think that would be so adorable or even the nicer packs of ornaments. I know you probably can't tell right now but our treat is a little bit there. We definitely need some more ornaments. So I think I'm gonna order some tonight. I'm gonna get into the higher end price points. This is more for like family and family friends. Someone that you've known for a long time and that you don't mind spending a little bit more on starting off strong is pretty much any KitchenAid accessories. I think this has been on my Christmas wish list for the past three years ever since I got my KitchenAid mixer. Pasta making one is high up on my list. It's definitely the pricier one out of all of the attachments. There's this one girl on TikTok. I think her name's Olivia. She throws these pasta making parties and I just could imagine that for myself. Therefore I really want this pasta KitchenAid attachment but there's also like the ice shaver that can create like snow cones. There's also the veggie spiral one. You can make like zucchini noodles with and that way your person can get a little bit more used out of their KitchenAid because I know right now I'm not doing a ton of baking even though the holiday season is here I probably should ramp it up. This next one is definitely gonna be on a lot of people's wish list especially if you're my age like you get the hype. It is the nugget ice maker. You know like the Sonic ice that's really crunchy and it's like perfect for cocktails and I don't know it's just like a vibe to have the nugget ice. If you guys have seen my empty house store video it is my dream to make like the laundry room pantry thing into a butler's pantry and that way I'll actually have a place to store the nugget ice maker. If you don't have this already it definitely needs to be on your wish list and that's a Roomba. I have a robot vacuum and it is honestly such a game changer because whenever I have friends over I feel like I'm always panic cleaning. I leave it to the last moment, shocker wow. But then I don't have to spend my time vacuuming myself. It literally just vacuums for me and it's amazing. This next one is not a need but a want and it's anything from smeg. Like literally anything, I'll take anything. They have tea kettles, their toasters are so freaking cute. It just looks really good in your kitchen but if you're getting this to someone else I recommend trying to like maybe FaceTime them and I don't know ask for a tour of their kitchen just to see what other colors their appliances are so that you can pick out a color that matches everything else. Last but not least is a Jonathan Adler vise canister. There's so many cute little sayings on it. One that says meow you can like use as cat treats but you know make it more aesthetic in your kitchen or wherever you wanna put it. There's ones that say gummies, munchies, secrets. There's a ton to choose from so you can get the perfect one for your friend or family. I actually discovered this last Christmas cause I saw someone get this as a gift in a white elephant exchange. I wrapped up this holiday gift guide. You can shop Wayfarers Black Friday Early Access Sale now.
