These guides are geared towards specific interests. You’ll be able to find something for even the toughest person on your Christmas shopping list.
Top 5 Practical Gifts
1) Reusable Silicone Food Storage Bags-Set of 4
These reusable silicone food storage bags do a lot more than the toss-out plastic ones can—like stand up. They’re airtight and leak-proof thanks to a sealing slider, and so a great choice for storing liquids like soup and sauces. The bags have a flat bottom for easy filling and can go in the microwave, oven, dishwasher, and freezer. You can even write on one with a dry erase marker.
2) Anti-Slip Shoe Traction Solution
Add traction to your step, thanks to millions of nano-sized spikes. You apply this non-toxic shoe grip solution to your soles. It dries into a grippy-but-clear surface that you won’t notice is there and reduces the likelihood of slips and falls in boots, flats, or high heels.
3) Minimalist Leather & Elastic Billfold
TROVE: Minimalist Leather & Elastic Billfold - Red
4) Blaster Glove
Flylow Gear: Blaster Glove - Small
5) European Scrubbing & Scouring Pad - Set of 4
A Skoy scouring pad does scrubbing and clean-up jobs in an eco-friendly (and much more colorful) way. Made in Poland from cotton thread remnants from the toweling industry and food-grade hardener, this scrubber will last about five times longer than usual scouring pads. It’s non-abrasive, so it’s safe on most surfaces like non-stick, stainless steel, and glass, and one can go through the dishwasher to freshen up.
