2021 Holiday Gift Guide

We blinked, and suddenly it’s the holidays. Gift-giving is one of our favorite parts of the season, and we rounded up several options that are surefire winners. From a chic chess set to personalized candles, you can cross off everyone on your “nice list” (and maybe pick up a little holiday treat for yourself in the process).

 

Make like Beth Harmon in the Queen’s Gambit and pick up one of these Lucite acrylic chess sets. Available in neon orange and yellow or classic black and white, these sleek sets can live on any surface and are sure attract lots of admirers as well as potential game seekers.

New design books are always on our holiday wish list. There’s nothing like starting off the year with fresh design inspiration. Some newly released favorites include Botanical Buildings: When Plants Meet Architecture, Where We Work: Home Offices, and Home: A Celebration.

There’s absolutely nothing basic about the baubles from Emily Warden Designs, thanks to Emily’s training in metalsmithing and jewelry design and her impeccable eye for finding and setting gorgeous stones. Her well-designed site makes it easy to shop and extremely difficult to narrow down the gift-buying selection.

Whether you are finally feeling like you can entertain again safely or you are still keeping your dinner crew small, these woven placemats from perennial favorite Chilewich elevate your table settings into art. Eco-friendly and suitable for indoor/outdoor use, the placemats make great hostess gifts that will long outlast a bottle of wine or flowers.

 

Felix Doolittle’s stationery line includes personalized canning labels and bookplates, but we would love to gift a set of signature note cards from the Plein Air collection. Whether you choose a marsh or a countryside field, you aren’t just preserving the art of letter writing when you gift these beauties; you’re also passing on a love and appreciation of illustrated art.

We keep candles burning all winter long, so stocking up on the latest offerings from Navabella is a no brainer, especially since they come in a variety of delectable scents like iced eggnog and mocha mint. You can even personalize these minimalist candles with a holiday greeting!

From all of us at Sara Hillery Interior Design, we wish you happy holidays!
