When I asked for gift guide ideas, I was blown away with the specific requests. It gave me a really good place to start. I wrote them down, tallied up which ones were most requested… and I’m going from there. I was also really touched by how many of you wrote to tell me that you love and use my gift guides. I know it gets gift guide crazy in the blogosphere – but I really try to be intentional and thoughtful about these, and I hope that shows.

So I thought the best place to start is with tried and true thoughtful gifts I’ve actually given (or received!). These all require a little extra time and thought to get them to your mailbox and in the hands of your loved ones. But it’s worth it! Later in the year I can’t add most of these to my gift guides because the ordering cut off for these custom gifts is earlier. This is no amazon prime two day shipping kinda gift guide … though that’s probably coming at you later in December.

Gift Guide: Thoughtful Gifts

{affiliate links are used in this post}

1. Generations photo print – I gave this to my father in law two years ago. I gathered pictures of each John Bullock (there are four) – and had it made in black and white.
2. Le Papier Studio Silhouette ornament – This is the perfect gift for your parents or in-laws. (There’s a sale going on right now -with code CHEER20 for 20% off until the 20th!)
3. Le Papier Studio Silhouette Necklace – This is the best gift for a new mom. Requires some sleuthing to manage to get that side profile pic of their kid without them knowing but it’s such a sweet and special gift. I honestly never take mine off. {these are included in the sale to – CHEER20) … I’ve also given silhouette cufflinks and prints as gifts too!
4. JB uses collar stays five times a week. The flimsy ones that come with shirts just don’t cut it. I’ve loved giving him custom collar stays. And I love these other collar stays that can be done in your kids handwriting!
5. A print of your/or someone’s special vows. I had this made of my parents a couple anniversaries ago. Their vows are my all time favorite. I have their original ones framed.
6. Dixie Design Stationery set. These make the best gifts! I’ve given them to my mom and my sister.
7. When Kendall Kirk sent me this gorgeous painting of my boys I honestly cried. It’s a treasure. If I was packing for a hurricane, this would come with me! Would make a great gift for a mother, mother in law, or maybe even your husband to keep at his office.
8. A house illustration makes a great gift! For someone who just moved into their forever home, or just anyone who loves their home (:
9. A family/child illustration. I love Inna’s work … I’ve given it, and received it several times. I’ve had her illustrate old cherished photos and I’ve done photos I’ve taken that day. These are real treasures.
10. I’m a sucker for monogram booties, and these pajamas are just my go-to new baby gift. Softest, sweetest.
11. My obsession with Tricia Lowenfield’s work is STRONG. These custom ornaments are just darling. I die over the custom tea set (perfect thoughtful gift for a little girl) and her nativity scenes.
12. Don’t forget the dog mamas! These sweet simple ornaments are precious.
13. Custom tea towels. I gave one to my mother last year – it was an old hand written recipe of my Ninny who passed last year. Such a sweet gift and right now a portion of Tarayn’s proceeds go to Hurricane Michael relief!
14. I love giving these TBBC totes as gifts! Super sweet with a monogram or a name embroidered!
15. My mother gave me this little gold wreath last year as a gift and it’s one of my most precious things I have. It comes from Greece, so order asap as shipping took a LONG time.
