Christmas gifts and holiday gift ideas for everyone on your list, all in one place.

Christmas Gift Guide toys under the tree

Welcome to my Christmas gift guide. I start making my gift lists in October, and by December I have usually found something for everyone, plus a few things for myself. Below you will find every one of my holiday gift guides. Each section links to the full guide, with a few of my favorite picks to shop right underneath.

Gifts for Foodies

Good things to cook with and even better things to eat, for the foodie on your list. See all of my gifts for the foodie in your life.

Homemade Food Gifts

Some of my favorite gifts come straight from my kitchen. My salted dark chocolate hot fudge sauce looks lovely in a jar tied with ribbon, and my homemade marshmallows never last long. For something savory, try my three savory homemade gifts: Union Square bar nuts, copycat Dots pretzels and cranberry cordial.

Mad for Plaid

For everyone who loves tartan as much as I do, my plaid gifts for Christmas has something for the table, the closet and every cozy corner of the house, plus a few Scottish treats and how to find your own family tartan. You will find even more in my Mad for Plaid shop, which I update all year long.

Advent Calendars

Count down to Christmas with a little treat every morning, with chocolate, tea, beauty and candle calendars, plus a few to fill and use year after year. See my favorite advent calendars, and choose soon, because the best ones sell out before Thanksgiving.

Gift Baskets

A gift basket is one of the easiest ways to give something personal. Try my tea lovers gift basket, my spa gift basket or my hot chocolate gift basket.
