I’ve shared my holiday gift guide and many people have asked for gift guides with unusual ideas that aren’t the usual kitchen items, clothing, or toys. This list of gift ideas is just that… unique and creative ideas your recipient probably doesn’t already have.
All of these gifts are practical, healthy, and usable, so they don’t need to be on your shelf. Give it as a gift for celebrations such as weddings and birthdays. Additionally, you can also take advantage of the health benefits of these gifts if you live in the same home as the recipient.

That’s why I spray my house with a home probiotic called Homebiotic. Even the super picky person on your list might love this quirky gift.
