the friendship gift guide
tiny gifts that say “i thought of you” and what i’d buy you if we were best friends irl :)
Friendship and community are so important, and around the holiday season it just feels extra special to show a little appreciation.
I recently put together an office gift guide:
but honestly, nothing says “i love you” like the friends who you share life with.
so here’s what i’d buy you if we were besties or what you can buy your bestie.



the list:
Hatch Alarm - the friend who deserves gentler mornings, i’ve been using the hatch alarm for a year now and it has been a core part of my morning and night routine.
Weekender bag - for spontaneous trips, sleepovers, and packing for your next adventure together. i’ve used the Calpak Luka duffel so many times on quick trips.
Polaroid camera - memories you can hold in your hand. Fujifilm is always going to be a classic choice.
Adventure book - a keepsake. i have the solo adventure book and it’s fun to use.
Record player - extra points if you gift one special vinyl to start their collection. i’ve gifted two record players (so far) and it’s such a classic, nostalgic gift.
Flower subscription - fresh blooms that feel like handwritten notes. i love flowers (who doesn’t?!).
Custom gifts - i love the idea of something made specifically with someone in mind. pieces that feels personal, intentional, and nostalgic. i especially love the business concepts from studiobysephi and cosaceramica. They turn simple objects into keepsakes. this includes hand-painted ceramics, dreamy trinket dishes, and personalized pieces that feel like they belong in someone’s forever-home.
Honestly, gift-giving has always felt like a love language to me, and i curated this list because it reminds me how beautiful memories are when we hold onto them, revisit them, and cherish the people we share them with.




I love these options! I love everything on this list
