 Hello everybody, welcome back to my channel. Today we are doing a gift guide, just keeping it really casual. This is kind of honestly like accumulative favorites of the year because I feel like I have broken this gift guide into many different sections and a lot of the sections encompass my favorite items in each of those categories. So I'm just basically sharing with you guys my favorites but of course all of these items are shoppable. They are perfect Christmas gifts. I like everything to be budget friendly for you guys and of course every single item I do share in this video is going to be linked in the description box below. And if you happen to be new here, make sure to click that red subscribe button and then click that bell icon right next to it. That way you are notified whenever I upload brand new videos and you'll be part of the Lone Fox family. We have so much fun here on the channel and over on Instagram and TikTok which both are Lone Fox home. We'll put them on the screen for you guys but we have a pretty large gift guide to get through you guys. I'm gonna go through all the items very quickly because I feel like you don't need to be here for an hour to see each of these. Just kind of want to talk about my key points of each and why I like each of them. And yeah, so there's a couple different sections throughout and let's dive on into stocking stuffers. Oh, and by the way you guys, everything throughout this video is either from a small business, from my own online shop, from Amazon, a big box retailer, I mixed absolutely everything throughout the year that I have been loving and compiled it into one video. So there really is a mixture of absolutely everything. So our first stocking stuffer are these. These are brand new to my website. They're by the brand called Tea Spressa. And when I got these in, I was so excited because these are actually instant cocktail cubes and this is an instant hot cocoa kit that essentially comes with little cubes. They're sugar cubes that are flavored. You just drop one of them in a glass of milk or water and you have instant hot cocoa. And then same with a cocktail kit. I just think that these are so innovative and I am a sucker for cute packaging. So these are perfect for stocking. A no-brainer item to throw in a stocking for anybody is this little lighter here. You just flip it up like that. I just love these. I have them all over my apartment. They're rechargeable. You plug them into the wall for an hour or so and you are good to go and they just light your candles for you. Now I love incense myself and I actually got sent a PR box recently from a brand that I just found out about called Supernatural. Nothing in this video is sponsored by the way guys. I don't want you to think that anyone is like sponsoring to be in here because these are genuinely products I do really love. And then it comes with the little incense holder as well but I just loved the packaging on this incense. I'm again a sucker for packaging. Anything with good packaging, I love. And the quality of these sticks are incredible. I think it's just a cute little gift to throw in a stocking as well. We got some poopery because you know what? This is something you never would buy yourself. I feel like you'll see it like you know what? I don't really need that. And then when you have it, you're like, wow, I actually did need that in this time when all my friends are here and I did have to go number two, you know? Just put it on your toilet and it just makes everything smell better. And we have just a couple more stocking stuffers here. These first two are from my online shop and these are both from some small businesses that I love supporting. This one is by the company Ten Prairie and I love carrying small business items in my store. I absolutely love being able to shop small business, support them with orders and then of course, sell them to you guys as well. So this right here is kind of like a geometric concrete match stick holder but again, a very easy no-brainer just throw it in a stocking and it's a cute little gift idea. And that second item is a new planner. Now these come in three different styles and they're from the company Blush and Gold. I absolutely love their eye for graphic design. This is a tortoise print planner. It says 2022 on the front of it and kind of the scripty font. It's foil embossed and all around this planner is stunning. If you know someone that loves using planners or utilizing them, I highly suggest checking these out. And then I also wanted to share this with you guys. This is one of my favorite lip products. This is the L'Oignage Lip Sleeping Mask which is a little bit more expensive for a lip product but if you're gonna get someone you know a couple of stocking items, I think this is a great product. I love it. And then this one here, this is another item that we use all the time. I've shared this a couple of times on the channel in the past. It is essentially an electronic bag closer. So let's say you open a bag of chips or you open a bag of sunflower seeds or something and you wanna close it, you can actually defutilize this, swipe it across the top of the bag and it actually heat seals it. And I just think it's really nice. You don't have to go ahead and use any form of clip. My worry is for the decorator. So someone that loves interior design decorating, I'm sure a lot of you guys watching my channel are someone that would love to receive a gift like this. So I wanted to share these with you. These are some of my favorite items from the year. I'm obsessed with these. So first off we have a couple of coffee table books that I have been gravitating towards so much lately. This first one here is one that you guys probably see all the time Amber Interior's book. She is one of my all-time favorite interior designers. I think she is phenomenal. Like, did you see that? I had a loss for words. So if you're in the market for a book, this is definitely a great one. A newer one that I actually just got is called Pacific Natural by Jenny Kane. And Jenny Kane is such like an interesting brand to me. I love, love, love their visuals. And all around this book has just such beautiful photography in it if you guys are into that. And it's simple seasonal entertaining. That's kind of the topic of the book. And the last one I have here is called Live from Effing Everywhere. And I like this one mainly you guys because of the color. I think it's such a unique color. I love this like white little paper edition on it as well. And I kind of just use this book more for visual purposes and styling. And yes, I know, you probably shouldn't buy a book off the way that it looked from the exterior, but as an interior decorator, you guys would understand. Some of you would understand out there. Another decor piece that I got recently that I am just in love with is this bust candle. This is from Anthropology. It was $48, which I think is a pretty decent price for how large this candle is, you guys. This is something I would never burn. It would be more of like a bookcase piece just to kind of showcase. Now vintage brass frames have been, of course, all the rage. They have been for quite a while, but they are kind of hard to find. And a lot of times you have to thrift them or get them at estate sales or flea markets. But I found these ones on Amazon. And again, these are just such great quality and they look legit. So I thought these would be cute gift ideas if you were to maybe get a frame like this and then add some artwork to it and gift it to a friend. And the last item in this section is the Plum Mara Throw. Now if you guys remember this one, this was from my bedroom makeover for fall. And I featured this in there. I am obsessed with this throw blanket. It is so soft. I love how it has tan fringe on it. This is definitely one of my favorite throw blankets. Working your way into the home body section, these gifts are perfect for someone that just loves to stay home and be at home. So I thought I'd add in a puzzle because we are obsessed with these puzzles. Marie and I, these are from Peacework Puzzles, which is another small business, but I carry these over on my site. They're honestly just aesthetically pleasing puzzles. The packaging and everything also is so fun. You can get a ton of these, stack them up. They almost look like little books in a bookcase. So it's such a great gift idea. I recently did a little partnership with Vitruvi and they sent over this diffuser here, but it is, it's beautiful. I absolutely love it. It's a terracotta finished diffuser. We've had this in the living room and have been utilizing with some of their oils here. These are the ones I have yet to open. Pacific Boost and Sweet Water. But I love my Vitruvi diffuser. And if you don't have a diffuser, you guys, it's a great alternative to a candle. And literally the next item I'm sharing with you guys is a candle. Cowboy smells in particular. These candles, I just love them. They have such an incredible smell to them. I love the size of them. I love the price point of them. I just feel like you're getting like a luxury candle at a really decent price. I think they just did an incredible job with branding and also the candles, the smells of them are insane. This one's called LES or less. I'm not exactly sure if that's the pronunciation of that, but I've gone through two of these and it smells absolutely incredible. There's another one that I have used in my bedroom called Cowboy Cush. I've gone through two of those. That one smells insane as well. And the last item in this section is this weighted blanket. I am someone that suffers from anxiety. Mentioned it on my channel in the past and I'll probably touch on it in a little bit on my channel a little bit more. A lot of you guys have been a bit curious about that. But I love this. This is a weighted blanket. If you've never had one, they are so nice because really all it is, is just a generic blanket with a bunch of weight in it. So when you're watching TV or you're sleeping or you're laying down, whatever it might be, just having this on your body makes it almost feel like you have a little bit of compression on you. So if you're someone that does get a little bit anxious or maybe you feel a little bit lonely, whatever it might be, a weighted blanket is a very, very nice addition. Now, a couple of gifts for men because I know men can be very, very hard to shop for and I had to literally go through all my stuff and be like, okay, these are my favorite things that I've been utilizing through the year. First one being this Philips Norelco One Blade. You guys, if you know a guy that needs a shaver or a trimmer or something like that, this trimmer is incredible. It gets literally all the way completely to the surface of your skin without using an actual razor. It's electronic so you can recharge it and it actually has this dial so you can kind of do different settings. It comes with a whole bunch of attachments but I've just used it exactly like this for like a year now and I'm obsessed with it. A super affordable item, again, this is a great stocking stuffer, is this Cremo Body Wash. This is from Target. This is literally from Target and look how stunning their packaging is. Target has stepped it up but this particular scent is Palo Santo and you guys, this smells like a Lalabo body wash that costs $75 but I swear to you, this is like six bucks. Highly, highly recommend this. I will not use any other body wash. It's my favorite one and it smells so luxurious. And then just two clothing items. My first one being this pair of shoes here. These are my Birkenstock Bostons. I have been wearing these everywhere, you guys. They're like the best of both worlds. A mix between a shoe and a sandal. Like the cover your foot, keep it a little bit warm but at the same time, you can like slide it on and hit the road, you know? So I love these. I love this tan colorway. These, of course, probably aren't for everyone. They definitely have a cloggy vibe to them but I've been wearing them so much recently and I just thoroughly enjoy them myself. And then lastly for our men's category, I did wanna showcase this clothing brand, you guys, because so many of you have commented when I wear this cardigan in particular. So this is by a brand called Corridor. I'll put it in the screen right here. I will say, though, that these clothing pieces are a little bit on the pricey side. That's because a lot of them are handmade. So this is a hand crocheted cardigan and then also from them is this flannel that I've been wearing a lot. You guys have probably seen this as well. It just has such a nice feel to it. It has a flannel feel, but also at the same time, it has like a slubby yarn going through it. So it has like this blue clay texture at the same time. So if you're looking for a really nice quality piece of clothing, I highly recommend this brand. Out of our men's section, we're gonna dive into DIY. So these are gifts that are perfect for anyone that loves DIY. And I'm probably just gonna hold up my widely most used tool this year, which was this. These are some industrial scissors. I think I got these at Lowe's or Home Depot. I don't remember where. They're by Craftsman. And you guys, these are just incredible. For any DIY that struggles with trying to cut a piece of metal or cut some wire or cut the floral stems when you're trying to make an arrangement with faux florals, you need this pair of scissors in your life. If you know someone that DIYs literally get them this, they will use it way more than they actually think they will. Another item I'm reaching for all the time is this tabletop vacuum. I've shared this with you guys in the past and it basically is just like this. You turn it on and you kind of just go over the top of your table like this and it sucks up any thing that's on the table and I love it. It is so nice. So if you're someone that crafts or does something where small little bits of stuff gets everywhere, especially like glitter, if you do nails or anything like that, this is a great product for you. And then just two more kind of more power tools, I guess you could say. First one is a heat gun. You guys, this is another tool that you might not think you need, but if you had it, it is a lifesaver. If you're a DIYer or you kind of paint a lot, whatever it might be, this just allows the drawing time for your paint to kind of be cut in like a 10th of the time. It's a time saver and also it just comes in handy all the time. And then our last tool at the DIY section is this one here. This is my Ryobi Bradnailer and I just reached for this way more than I ever thought I would. As you guys know, I've done a ton of board and batten walls throughout my apartment. I've utilized this for all of them. Almost every one of my larger scale like DIY projects I utilize this for as well. I just find myself reaching for this power tool more than any power tool that I own. This one is a really great price. It's also extremely user friendly. I don't have much background with power tools myself and I find this in really all the Ryobi tools extremely easy to use. So I'll link this one below for you guys. Now I know that there is so much in this video you guys but we are diving into our tech obsessed category. So these are items that are perfect for anyone that is into tech kind of items. But the first technology piece I do have is actually a microphone. And this is a microphone I do all my voiceovers for. I get a lot of questions about that and I figured I just kind of bring it up in this video. This is a Yeti mic, a Yeti blue mic. I'm not exactly sure of the model. I've had this forever. So if you guys would like one, I'll link it below for you. And I think it's like $99 or so. So it's not too bad. And if you know someone that wants to kind of get into content creation or anything like that, this is a great one. Something else I never knew that I would use as much as I do is this tripod mount for your phone. It is so convenient. So if you have a tripod and you also, you know, use your phone to maybe film TikToks or time-lapse videos or whatever it might be. This is such a nice product to have. You can actually flip it horizontal or vertical depending on like spinning this. So you can have your phone up and down or you can have it sideways as well. It's just really nice to film with. And it's just a couple of dollars as well. So a great stocking stuff for idea. Two other kind of phone related items. First of all, Case to Five sent me a couple phone cases for Christmas. And I actually have one on my phone right now. You guys look how cute this one is. It has a little gingerbread men on it. But they also sent me this one, which is like a little Christmas village. And this is no way sponsored by Case to Five. But I thought if you were in the market for some cases, they are so cute. And honestly, you guys look how like high quality the cases on the outside, it is so thick. I can't actually even put it in this anymore, which is my second item. Now I got this, it's for the wall in your shower. So you can actually put your phone in here and watch it. And I am someone that loves to sing in the shower. So I'll literally put on music videos and pretend like I'm within the music video. But sadly with my new Case to Five phone case, it doesn't really fit in there. So I've been having to take it out of the case and then pop it in. But if you guys would like one of these as well, it's again a couple bucks on Amazon and I love it because it actually keeps your phone waterproof. You just slide it in here, kind of clip it shut, put it on the little mount on your wall. And you can watch the videos in there and it's actually fully clickable as well, which I really like. And last but not least you guys in our tech category, we have this little lap desk, I guess you could say. I utilize this every single day. It's what I edit every one of my videos on. I edit either at my desk or if like I'm on the couch or if I'm on my bed or something, I always, always utilize this. It has like a nice cushion on the bottom. So it kind of sits on your legs here. Then you can put your laptop on top right here and just kind of work on top of it. There's a lot of surface space so I can have my hard drive. I can even have my microphone on here. And it is just something that I utilize all the time that you might not think you would utilize but you definitely will. If you're someone that's on your laptop often, I highly recommend one of these. And I don't know where all that time went but we are on our last category which is for the cooker slash entertainer. I have a couple of items in here and actually the first one is from a recent campaign that I did with KitchenAid. And this is again, no way sponsored but I just love these. These are cordless kitchen tools, you guys, look at this. You can mix and it's not even plugged in anywhere. This is a matte black cordless hand mixer and it's just so chic. So if you know someone that loves cooking or baking, highly recommend checking out this collection. It's a full cordless collection. So they have like this hand mixer. They also have this hand blender so you can literally blend. Are you kidding me without it plugged into the wall? And lastly, they have this cordless chopper. So those three are part of the cordless collection. I love the matte black colorway. And I'm just, I'm a big fan of the hand mixer. I think this just looks so nice. It almost looks like one of those tools you use to massage your back, you know? Like one of those like guns. Maybe we can utilize it like that. We're gonna massage someone's back with this. Now a while back in an Amazon favorites video, you guys saw me share this little copper cookware set which comes with a pan or a pot like this. And then it also comes with a smaller size pan and then a larger size pan. We have been using these since I shared them, you guys. And they are still in such nice quality. They do all come with lids as well. I just didn't bring them for the video portion. But I love these. If you know someone that needs maybe some new cookware, they're moving into a new apartment, whatever it might be, these are really nice because I love the look of them but they also serve an extremely well purpose. You know, they do exactly what they're supposed to. They're fully nonstick and they're really easy to clean up. And our last item is something for someone that loves to entertain. And they are these cheeseboards here. These are over on loanfox.com. They're the Seneca cheeseboards. And I love these because they have little feet on them. So they just kind of elevate it a little bit more. I feel like it's just a little bit cuter than your traditional cheeseboard. I love how it has that little foot on the bottom there and they come in two different sizes. So I thought I'd share them with you guys just because they're a really cute gift idea. And yeah, you guys, those were all of my gift ideas. I hope that you enjoyed this video. It's definitely a little bit different than my usual ones. I'm normally always talking, you know, about home decor or DIYing something or showing you how to make over a space. But I thought this gift guide could come in handy for anyone that maybe was struggling with getting someone a gift this year. And I just feel like gift guides are really helpful even if you're not even gonna utilize any of these. Just to kind of keep the products in your head for maybe a birthday gift in the future or something along the lines of that. So I would love to know, which was your favorite gift in today's video that you guys saw? Leave a comment below letting me know. And also, if you have any innovative kind of gift ideas this year, I would love to know and we can have a little conversation in the comment section below. So definitely leave a comment down there.
