2025 KERF Holiday Gift Guide
Gifts For Women (my favorite brands & products)
Avaline Wine Box – Avaline makes a range of transparently produced wines. Each bottle is made with 100% organic grapes, has 0 grams of sugar per serving, and is free from unwanted additives like colors and concentrates. Their message is “Wine with Nothing to Hide.™” Read my full blog post review here. I’ve been drinking their wines mixed with other brands for over a year, and can say that for me personally, I do not have ANY negative effects with these (headaches, hangovers, etc).
Caraway Cookware – I have entire blog post review about Caraway kitchen appliances. They are really some of my favorite kitchen cookware, and would make great gifts for the home chefs in your life. Spend $85 to unlock tiered savings!
Geometry Kitchen Towels – These are the best kitchen hand towels, hands down. I also love their lightweight waffle bath towels and cloth napkins. They come a gazillion different prints from florals to abstract, seasonal, and more. They make fantastic hostess gifts, too. Use my link for 35% off!
Our Place Wonder Oven – This is one of the best multitasker products on the market with an all-in-one air fryer, toaster, mini oven, steamer. If you don’t like the look of a giant air fryer on your counters, this one is so chic!
Higher Dose Sauna Blanket – There are so many health benefits to infrared saunas, and this blanket is a way to bring them to your home for a fraction of the cost and space a huge sauna would take up.

Grow Fragrance Candles – These are the candles I primarily burn in our home because a) they smell divine, and b) they’re safer for you! Their candles are made with certified bio-based ingredients, which means they’re environmentally friendly and not petroleum-based like those used in traditional air fresheners and candles. Check out their new holiday + winter scents! These make perfect gifts. Read my full blog post review here.

Frame TV – 1,000% worth the investment – we love ours. And if you’re wondering, the “interface” is great, too. I also just learned about this Amazon TV which is much less but has the new Ambient Experience that displays are upon walking in a room. Better than a black screen!
Mini Blower – Both men and women love this thing – for leaves on porches, to clean out strollers and car seats, and any other “hard to get” areas. It’s the most satisfying thing ever!
Untuckit Shirts – Untuckit shirts have that just-right length (hence the name), come in different fits for all shapes and sizes, and look sharp while still being casual. If you don’t have a store you can visit, you can also find Untuckit shirts on Amazon.

Gifts For Kids + Teens
KiwiCo Boxes – Birch LOVES these, and I love that you can buy them a la carte now. We loved the Nature Kaleidoscope Kit, and this ornament set would be perfect to get now for the Christmas season ahead!

Outfoxed – LOVE this game!! And of course I play Rummikub daily – it’s also great for kids!
Yoto Player – We had a mini for years, and Birch got the “big box” last year. It’s so great because it also has a free daily podcast and alarm clock built in. Of course we have the make your own cards loaded with K pop soundtrack 🙂 We also have a bunch with movie scores on them. I find making my own easier than buying their cards.
