Top 5 Christmas Gifts
1) Nut & Plant-Based Milk Maker
This plant-based and nut milk maker streamlines the DIY milk process and is a one-stop way to retain all the original flavor and nutrients of the ingredients you choose. Two nested containers let you measure, filter, and soak nuts, grains, or seeds in water with no mess. You can even store and pour from the outer container.
2) Wooden Tabletop Baseball Game
This baseball board game hits it out of the park. Roll the dice and run the pegs around the bases to score a run. The wooden game board is handcrafted in Missouri and is made with the mission to bring families together for a nostalgic (and fun) screen-free game night.
3) KindleQuick Log Splitter
The KABIN KindleQuick Kindling Splitter is the easiest and most effective way to make—and carry—your own kindling from regular firewood. Kindling is a key component for lighting fires in fire pits, chimneys, and fireplaces, but is too thin to cut with an axe and can be tough to find and expensive to buy. Instead, cut it yourself with the KindleQuick.
4) Wood-Framed Custom Map Serving Tray
A custom map serving tray keeps the memory of a special place—a first home, stand-out vacation, or wedding—close to you. A location from anywhere in the United States and the nine square mile-surrounding area are featured on the map. A compass rose will mark the exact spot and the map’s legend can be customized, too. Made in Rhode Island with Indian mango wood.
5) Stitch-Your-Travels Leather Notebook
Over the river and through the woods, you’ll sew your way with this leather travel journal. As you fill the interior with jottings, drawings, and memories, customize the specially perforated leather cover with colorful stitches—creating a keepsake as personal as your path across the planet.
