Top 5 Thoughtful Gifts
1) Japanese Welcome Fish Soap
Japanese soap shaped like a supersized fish makes for a meaningful (and eye-catching) gift. The red snapper symbolizes good fortune and luck in Japanese culture and this sweet-smelling one is made with a traditional wooden mold by one of Japan’s oldest soap makers. Give one as a unique token of thanks or good luck, or hang one up in your own shower.
2) Magnetic Shoe Closures - Youth/Adult
You’ll never need to tie your shoes again with Zubits, the magnetic shoe closure. Simply lace the magnets into your shoelaces and you’re ready to go. Super strong magnets hold fast during strenuous activity, but are easy to open. Slip on, click in place, and get out the door. Your shoes will look great (no floppy bows) and you can even hang them up easily.
3) Connection Orb
You are Seen. You are Heard. You are Loved. This Ornament is about connection. Throughout our lives we create meaningful connections by letting the people around us know that they are seen, heard and loved. The band in the center connecting the two colors represents how beautiful it can be to reach out and connect with others. When we do, something new and beautiful occurs. These connections add depth and color to our lives. Let someone know today that they are seen, heard, loved.
4) Olive Oil Gift Box - Set of 5
This olive oil gift set lets you enjoy pure, delicious olive oil delivered straight from the grove. The extra virgin olive oil is made in Italy with Carolea olives that are grown, cold-pressed, and poured at the same location to ensure it’s always fresh and never diluted.
5) Personalized Jar Full of Loving Messages
A jar stuffed with love, praise, friendship, and memories, gathered from the people who matter most. The recipient will be celebrated like never before with this personalized gift filled to the brim with joy, inspiration, and humor. Each Little Love Jar can be filled with up to 175 messages, collected from friends and family worldwide.
