Trying to find the perfect gift for someone you love can be a challenge. You want it to special and have thought behind it but what if they don’t need anything? Honestly, that is my favorite kind of gift to purchase!
Below you will find some of my favorite gifts to share. A lot of them are from small businesses, possibly have a good story and are made in the USA.
For transparency sake, if you purchase through a link on this post, I will make a small commission from that sale. Everything I share here, I have used myself and I am not paid for this content.
The first time I laid my hands on my Redland Cotton robe, I fell in love. I was at my first P.I.N.K. Creatives retreat where Redland Cotton had gifted them to the attendees and I felt so spoiled.
I immediately went to their website to see what they were all about. I was happy to see they offered a really cool dress. Once I received the dress, I was hooked. I was officially a Red Land Cotton devotee!
July 2022 was the first time working with Red Land Cotton. I love sharing all about their beautiful sheets and blankets. The story behind their products is amazing. The cotton is grown here in Alabama and manufactured in the USA, too.
I own two dresses, the one with sleeves and the sleeveless one. Sometimes will wear a belt with it and sometimes I don’t. I always get compliments when I wear them out and about.
My husband loves their sheets so much, we don’t use any other brand on our bed. He loves them so much that when he was ill (I was quarantining on the other side of the house) he washed the sheets and put them back on the bed. I told him there are other sheets and he replied, “no there are not”.
Every time I wash the sheets, they continue to get softer. I love the texture of these plush cotton sheets so much. I am proud to say that I am a dedicated Red Cotton user.
Check out their website and use the code JERILYNNE 15. While you are shopping for others you should consider something for yourself too.
I like to think of my kitchen items from The Bright Angle as jewelry for my kitchen. They add that beautiful touch while being incredibly functional.
I shared a few weeks ago a blog post about preparing Shrimp Scampi while using their Elixir bottle. Their products are so incredible, I agreed to do a Mother’s Day ad with them. I am even wearing my dress from Red Land Cotton in the photos.
Their products come in a variety of beautiful colors. They are designed out of Asheville, NC and are made of a beautiful porcelain. Check out their website and use the code JERILYNNE10 for 10% off your next purchase. You won’t be disappointed.
I am not a big jewelry person. I like things simple and classic. Every year for our wedding anniversary, my. husband buys (read I order it and tell him it is from him)from Yearly Co. I am up to 8 bangles and wear them on the daily.
The Yearly Co. is based in Nashville and has a beautiful story behind their products. They do not offer sales very often but for my followers they are giving a $25 off any order over $250 with the code HILLCOUNTRY. You also can receive a free bracelet sizing kit when you go to their website and sign up for emails.
I highly recommend this type of gift for something of monumental memories. When the recipient puts it on they will always remember your kind gesture.
I love my Ooni. I love it so much that I gave each of my 4 kids one for Christmas. We have hosted so many pizza parties and trust me they are a ton of fun!
The Ooni makes the best crust and depending on the type of flour you use, you can even get it cracker crunchy thin.
They can be a bit expensive but in my book, they are totally worth it. No matter if it a pizza for 2 or a party where everyone makes their own pie, they are a great investment.
Right now throught May 19, 2023 you can receive $50 off any order over $299 with the code OONI50 using this link to Ooni.
Interested in a different kind of gift for your favorite foodie? The herbs and spices from Burlap & Barrel is where it is at!
They were recently on the TV show “Shark Tank” talking about their single origin spices. I love the variety of herbs and spices offered that I can’t find anywhere else.
If you are searching for something for that person that loves to be organized, look no further than Erin Condren. Erin Condren products help keep me organized with my calendar, notes and blog ideas.
I had mine personalized as a gift to myself. I also got my grown-up “trapper keeper” vibe pencil case. This way I am not searching for pens, pencils and even business cards.
Check out Erin Condren’s website and find that perfect gift for your loved one who adores organization.
I know you might think this would be primarily a gift for Father’s Day because of the hot sauce in the title, but trust me they have other delicious things that everyone can enjoy!
I love serving a margarita in a dressed glass, meaning a little lime juice on the side and dip it in their margarita salt. It is the perfect compliment to my Blackberry Jalapeno Margarita. Perfection!
I also love their Bloody Mary Salt and their Cocktail Sauce. I have used them in my recipes for Bloody Mary Shrimp and Oven Roasted Shrimp. They have a variety of hot sauces and hot honey. Imagine that drizzled over some Fried Chicken and Waffles. So amazing!
Their Spicy Everything Salt is great on avocado toast and cottage cheese.
Check out their website for all of the gift box opportunities they offer and use code BONVIVANT for 15% off.
I am sure you aren’t surprised that I am always wanting to push a cookbook or two for you to try. I have numerous blog posts where I share them and there are links available in those posts.
If you are interested in an Ina Garten cookbook, or five (I am not here to judge) here is a great post where my daughter, Marissa, and I review and rank them according to our usage.
I also shared my favorite cookbooks at the end of 2022. I will be doing a round up in June of my favorite cookbooks so far in 2023. There are some great cookbooks from last year and you can read about them here. They also provide links through Amazon for purchase.
I know finding the perfect gift can be stressful. I say as long as you are thoughtful enough to give a gift you are in the clear.
Bon Appetit!
