I love the holiday season and usually get a jump on shopping really early on. Each year by this time, my tree is up, cards are in the mail and all my gifts have been purchased. This year... not so much. It’s mid-December and I don’t have a tree, I just ordered my cards, and I haven’t even started the bulk of my shopping.
Are you in the same boat? Need some inspiration? I’ve put together some great gift ideas - everything on this list is something I personally own, so I feel confident recommending these products. I’d love to hear what you think and what other products you’d recommend our readers check out this holiday season and beyond.
Without further ado, here are my top gift picks for Holiday 2016:
KilnWitch Crystal Mug - $55
You guys...this mug is everything! Handmade ceramic mug with clay crystals and gold accents (available in two colors). Hurry though, these sell out super fast!

Hylunia Colloidal Silver Mist - $34
We picked this high-performance spray toner up at a spa in Sedona and every time we use it, it takes us right back. The curative powers of Colloidal Silver combined with the soothing properties of Lavender keep skin soft, healthy and radiant.

Levoit Hand Carved Himalayan Crystal Salt Lamp - $65
If there was such thing as a “luxury” salt lamp, this would be it. Everything from the packaging to the design are just beautiful - the stainless steel base and touch control give this a very high-tech feel.

The Universe Has Your Back - $15
In her latest book, The Universe Has Your Back, Gabby Bernstein teaches readers how to transform their fear into faith in order to live a divinely guided life. Each story and lesson in the book guides readers to release the blocks to what they most long for: happiness, security and clear direction. We are definitely gifting this book!

Vitajuwel ViA Inner Purity (Aquamarine) - $105
Gem elixirs are amazing, but figuring out which crystals are safe to use can be a lot of work if you aren’t familiar with them. This isn't an issue with the VitaJuwel ViA, a glass bottle with two openings that comes with an exchangeable bottom piece (called the "gempod"), filled with a selection of hand-picked gemstones.

For the Basic Witch in your life, this is the most comfortable sweatshirt you will ever gift! This relaxed pullover is made from super soft Eco Mock Twist French Terry. I live in mine!

Save the Duck Packable Puffers - $198 - $358
I discovered this eco-friendly, cruelty-free line while shopping in Italy. In addition to its innovative “Plumtech”stuffing which does not rely on animals, this coat is warm, yet lightweight and packable - great for travelers.

Anchor & Helm Crossbody - $105
This bag allows you the functionality and style of a hands-free bag, but converts to a clutch for a dressier night on the town. And, they are made right on Cape Cod by a mother/daughter team, who couldn't be any nicer. You (and your gift recipient) will be super impressed with the quality of this bag (and the amazing smell of the leather)!

Awakened Soul Oracle Deck - $59
I backed this artist on Kickstarter, as her deck designs were beautiful. I just got my deck a few weeks ago and it’s unlike any other I have. That’s because it was created for people who want to see and connect with imagery that resonates with their life.

Framed Crystal Grid - $48 and up
This is the focal point of my sacred space. The energy of the crystals, the geometric pattern and your intentions all work as one energy to help you manifest your goals.

And, for the stocking stuffers:
Rest + Sleep Crystal Kit - $18
Everyone wants a good night’s sleep. Give this set to someone you know who could use some extra ZZZs. Have them keep it near their bed or tuck them under their pillow for a restful night’s sleep!
