The holidays have arrived, Santa is in town and it’s time to buy gifts. *insert scream*
Don’t fret, PRESS has got you covered with some cool, fun and funky gifts for your loved ones this holiday season. From items from our clients to some of our favorite brands and just some weird items we thought would make cool gifts, we’ve done our best to compile our top 10 giftable items this year.
1. For the Tea Lover: At PRESS, caffeine isn’t just a 9-letter word. It means happiness, longevity and getting stuff done. If you’ve got a tea-lover in the fam or as a friend, TeBella’s Advent Calendar makes for the perfect dose of caffeine AND relaxation. With 24 different teas to sample, this advent calendar truly delivers a cup of cheer – or 24.
2. For the Quirky Lady: Haven’t you heard? Fairgrounds St. Pete is the place to be across the bridge! Maybe we’re biased because they’re one of our clients, but we think they’ve got the most fun, unique and quirky gifts in their gift shop. One must-buy? These Strawberry Earrings. Hand-crocheted, light-weight and fun, these earrings make the perfect accessory for any lady on your list. And if you like strawberries, be sure to check out the Strawberry Room in all of its glory at Fairgrounds St. Pete.
3. For that stylish friend with the luscious locks: Who doesn’t love a good blow dry? At PRESS, we like to look and feel our best, and a blow-out at DryBar always does the trick. With locations in South and North Tampa, grab a DryBar gift card for that friend who has a once-a-week-wash-day or a job that requires her (or him!) to look camera-ready.
4. For the Traveler: We’ve allllll heard of BEIS bags. Now it’s time to be that person with the best gifts this season. The Weekender bag by BEIS offers organization, comfort and fashion all in a spacious bag meant for, well, a weekend away. Know someone bitten by the travel bug? The Weekender makes for a perfect gift for travelers to organize, pack and go.
5. For the Snoozer: It’s here, kings and queens – the alarm clock of your dreams has arrived. Wake slowly with the Hatch Alarm Clock that allows you to personalize your sleep and wake up routine. This smart alarm clock combines smart light, sound machine, sunrise alarm and meditations all within a cute bedside accessory.
6. For the Chef: Don’t be salty, embrace your culinary-forward friends and family members with the best seasoning of the season. Maldon salts offer a flaky accessory to your favorite meats, sweets and savories, and will bring forth the flavors of your favorite meals. Sourced from the coast of Maldon, these hand-harvested flakes make a great gift for the want-to-be-chef in your life.
7. For the flavorista: We think Monin Flavored Syrups are a thing of the heavens. Maybe we’re biased because we’ve managed their PR for the last seven years, or maybe we’re just right. From Hot Honey to Lavender and everywhere in between, Monin is known for flavoring the world from France to right here in Florida. Snag a bottle or two along with your favorite beans or brew and make your favorite coffee-lover’s day.
8. For the Sweet-toother: Did somebody say “Buy-five-get-one-free”? At Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream online, you can pick five of your favorite pints, get one for free and send them along to your holiday gift-recipient. The best part? Jeni’s has holiday flavors like Boozy Egg-Nog, Merry Berry and White Chocolate Peppermint.
9. For the know-it-all: Got someone on your list who not only has everything but seems to know everything too? Give the gift of knowledge with a Masterclass subscription. From Kris Jenner teaching on personal branding to Gordon Ramsey cooking it up in the kitchen, subscribers can find something for each of their interests with Masterclass.
10. For the minimalist: We all have that one friend who lives life on the edge without a case on his or her phone. We’ve got the perfect solution – a case that’s not really a case. This frameless case makes for the perfect gift for someone who needs some drop-protection on their screen, but doesn’t want a full-on phone case.
Be it tea, a smart alarm clock or a Masterclass, PRESS has you covered for ~almost~ everyone on your list. So strap in, get out your wallet and get to shopping because — ready or not — the holidays are here!
