Dark Gray Felt Tree Tote Bag ($155)



So many things to love here—the darling circular strap, the wonderful color, the gorgeous naked tree, the impressive capacity. I would marry this bag if it were legal. From Kaleel Designs.

Set of Octopus and Bird Art Prints ($35)


Limited edition letterpress prints on handmade paper. I really want these. You know that person who decorates with really oddball stuff? These prints are for that person. From Veronica Press.

Green Pomegranate Necklace ($58)



Pretty enough to eat. Or to buy for the person in your life who reminds you most of Persephone. From Sofia Masri.

Woolrich Men's Ragg Wool Convertible Gloves ($27)



These are just adorable. And if you should happen to order a too-small size (yes, they have sizes) for the man in question, perhaps you could wind up keeping a pair for yourself. I'm just saying. From Gifts For Him.

Handmade Ceramic Pourer ($52)



For, you know, pouring things. Do go see the other pictures; the back side has an amazing stitch-looking detail that will make you want to buy it immediately. From Rae Dunn.

Retro Alarm Clock ($16)



sale!

This is a perfect gift for a dude. It's made of metal, and it has all gears and stuff. Plus, it's half off right now. From Garnet Hill.

Duct Tape Wallet Kit ($20)



Somehow I think this would be a fantastic present for most teens. Get them started on the DIY track early... From The Curiosity Shoppe.

Bloomingdale's Lip Gloss Beauty Book ($30)



For those of us who have trouble committing to a single color of lip gloss, or alternatively, a great present for someone at the My First Makeup stage (remember how exciting makeup sets were at that age?). From Bloomie's.

Winter Berries Sterling Earrings ($29)



Simple but not too simple, in flame-oxidized sterling silver. From Loops Designs.

Faceted Glass & Brass Earrings ($2)



These delicate, handmade little earrings are much nicer than something you can pick up at the mall, and they make great stocking stuffers or small presents for acquaintances. From Earrings 4 You.

Hand Carved Wood Spoon ($20-$50)


Each one is made by hand from Vermont timber dried for two years beforehand, so these will probably last almost a lifetime with proper care. Great for a hardcore cook. From Live Wire Farm Timber.

Crocheted Mouse Hat ($30)



Somehow going out into the cold each morning seems a little better when there are tiny pink ears involved. From Shana Logic.

LOMO Diana Camera ($50)


So many things to love about this camera—the gorgeous antique snapshots it takes, and its appealing turquoise stripe. Comes with loads of accessories and a photography book. If you don't want one for yourself, feel free to buy me one. From Adorama.

Cupple Mug ($15)



This is how people will drink tea in the future. This is probably how super-advanced aliens on other planets drink their tea right now. From Nightlab.

Pin Clock ($70)



It'd be fun just to sit and watch the minutes change on this thing, no? From Signals.

Eye-Fi 2GB Wireless SD Memory Card ($100)



This is the end of losing that little cord that connects your digital camera to your computer. Now you can download photographs directly from your camera to your PC via your wireless network, thanks to this smart little memory card. From Amazon

Hoberman Mini Sphere ($14)



You will not be able to stop touching this. Great for small children, coworkers, or, really, anyone. There's something hypnotic about expanding and contracting it. Don't ask me to explain. From Office Playground.

Glitter Roll-ons ($6)

sale!

For beglittering yourself, or giving the stocking stufferly gift of glitter to any small child (or teen girl). Who doesn't feel more fabulous with glitter? Besides Dick Cheney, I mean. Although maybe him too. From Patina.

"Kasil Scoodie" Scarf + Hoodie ($40)




The model looks a little depressed, but it's probably just because she doesn't get to keep her Scoodie after the shoot is over. Futuristic, and with tiny pockets. I'm sold. From Tobi.

Sara Paloma Bone Votive ($34)



Each sublime porcelain votive is made to order, which means if you buy one right away, you'll get it just in time to impress someone important with your exquisite taste in gifts. From Sara Paloma Pottery.
