Gift Guide 3 - Last Minute Gifts

Taylor Martin

'Tis the season to be jolly, and sometimes, that means embracing your inner Santa and dashing to find those eleventh-hour presents and stocking stuffers. Don't stress, though – we've got your back! In this gift guide, we're taking you on a whirlwind adventure of last-minute Christmas gifts and whimsical stocking stuffers that you can  that'll have you spreading holiday cheer in no time. 

A Card

Like this Mele Kalikimaka Christmas Card by Minoʻaka Art Lab or, for those who need more, a 6-pack of Aloha Variety Cards by Hinu RiseWhen you're short on time, and options, you want to be able to pick a suitable gift without the pressure of guessing or searching endlessly. A card with a simple message (and perhaps a little cash 😉) may be the simple gift solution whether you’re celebrating in person or from afar. These island inspired cards are a great way to send your aloha and include a handwritten message. Handwritten cards are a tangible reminder of our love and warm wishes that no email or text could replace; and including some cash or a gift card allows the recipient to pick exactly what they want or need. 

 

Stickers

A simple stocking stuffer that gives the gift of customization and creativity. Stickers are a way for us to share our interest and style. For every person you have in mind, there’s a sticker they will love. Need some ideas? Maybe this  Native Pua Sticker Pack by Laulima for your plant loving relative or this Be Reef Friendly Sticker by Haupia Maria for your ocean loving friend. We have a ton of sticker options on our website, including those mentioned in our Budget Friendly Gift Guide, so be sure to check there!

 

Jewelry

Whether it’s a sparkling necklace, like this Freshwater Pearl Necklace by Seasential Designs, a meaningful bracelet, like this Fragrant Sacred Sandalwood ʻIliahi Bead Bracelet, by Kainoa Kreations, or an elegant pair of earrings, like these Koa Wood Double Helix Earrings by Koa Kards, jewelry is the small gift that always makes a big statement of appreciation. We also showcased a sleigh full of pieces in our other gift guide 1 and 2 so check there for even more gift giving inspiration!

 

Beauty Products 


These Reusable Cloth Face Pads by Kalo Keiki Designz are a fantastic and eco-conscious Christmas gift and stocking stuffer for the makeup or skincare lover in your life. Paired with a small batch skincare product like Aloha Mālie’s Ready Exfoliating Cleanser, or Ao Ola’s Olakino Heal All Balm  it becomes a  fun and luxurious kit that anyone can add to their skincare routine.

Pins 


Another unexpectedly perfect stocking stuffer, these pins by Laulima feature  endemic plants and animals such as the ʻAkekeʻe (Native Hawaiian Honeycreeper), Loulu (Palm Tree) and the Māmalu Mushroom
