These guides are geared towards specific interests. You’ll be able to find something for even the toughest person on your Christmas shopping list.
Top 5 Unusual Gifts
1) Spinning Whiskey & Spirits Glass
Sip from a spinning whiskey glass that does more than just look good (though it certainly does that). The base of this glass is designed to spin in place without toppling your drink. This creates an eye-catching effect with a purpose—the spinning action helps aerate whiskey, which opens up flavor and aroma.
2) Blooming Tea Flowers & Teapot Set
Flower Pot Tea Company: Blooming Tea Flowers - Sunkissed Peach
3) Nostalgic Metal Phone Stand
Pendulux: Nostalgic Metal Phone Stand - Small Sawhorse
4) Outdoor Golf Game
The Chippo Outdoor Golf Game combines cornhole and chip shots to make for a fun new golf-centric backyard game. Golfing buddies (or solo players) can use their own clubs to hit from turf-covered chipping mats into the netted holes. High-density foam balls have true spin and trajectory so they feel like the real thing, but won’t cause damage like a real ball can. The game boards are made with lightweight and durable plastic that’s easy to stow or move to wherever you want to play.
5) 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.
