Louisville Rainbow Sweatshirt, $55 | “My best friend moved from Louisville to Lexington last year and she’s always trying to forget where she came from. That’s why I plan on gifting her this cozy Louisville sweatshirt to keep her warm — and to always remind her she’s a Louisvillian at heart.”

Azalea Earrings, $50 | “I’m known for wearing funky earrings every day, so I think this pair is perfect to add to my collection. I’m thinking a monochrome blue outfit would be perfect.”

Brewmiceter Ornament, $25 | “My friends and I are doing an ornament exchange this year and this little mouse wearing lederhosen is obviously what I’m buying.”

Sasquatch Carving, $170 | “My mom can’t stop talking about Bigfoot lately, so I figured I’d entertain her latest obsession with this handcarved footprint made of black walnut and red oak.”

Discoball Bolo Tie, $30 | “My New Year’s resolution is to work bolo ties into my wardrobe. This one is at the top of my list.”

Kansas Treehouse Vrbo stay, priced per night | “My partner and I go to Kansas every year for Christmas because that’s where he’s from. We always try to find a neat little spot to stay half way through the drive. I’m thinking this treehouse might be the perfect place to stay over.”

Think we’d let the fun stop there? Shop even more editors’ picks, featuring the gifts our National Content team has their eyes on this month.

Brianna: “I’ve recently ditched the purse for a fanny pack to go totally hands-free while walking around town, which is why I’m eyeing these colorful fanny packs from Burlaep. (Pair it with this cute embroidered baseball cap and you’ve got a perfect city ‘fit.)”

Dayten: “We just moved, and I still have to build my reading nook: Methodical’s Ethiopian blend (which I’ve tried, and loved) and some elegant, renter-friendly decor.”

Emily: “I love waking up with a warm cup of chai tea in the morning — especially when it’s in a cute squirrel mug.”

Jessa: “Everyone loves a big fancy candle. Plus, get some decorative matches to... match.”
