Yes, it’s probably too late for delivery by Christmas—but—last-minute gift ideas turn out to be a double treat… First, the recipient’s pleasure upon opening a card describing the gift, and then the excitement when the belated present actually arrives. Here are some bonus treats for those who have been procrastinating:
Tea Forte
Crafted to pay homage to the iconic architect and visionary, an exclusive collection of teas combines design, connection, and creativity. Citrus Earl Grey, Spiced Herbal Mate, Ceylon Gold, Oolong Crème, Honey Hojicha—each flavor evokes a connection to nature, beauty, and tradition, and part of each purchase price supports work of the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation.
Freshcut Paper
It arrives flat in an envelope, but give it a mild twist and POP you have a plant or bouquet to brighten up a table or room. From the FreshCut houseplant collection, we picked the Wisdom Bonsai, a plant that’s in season all year long.
Luxardo
Top off a cocktail or ice cream sundae with classic Marasca cherries from the Veneto region of Italy. Soaked in marasca syrup with no thickening or coloring agents or preservatives, the candying process preserves a rare crispiness and the syrup itself can enhance beverages and desserts.
Tentsile
Combining the features of a hammock and a treehouse, Tree Tents attach with ratchet straps to three trees, providing a suspended refuge with a flat surface, an insect-proof netted roof for stargazing, and a rain fly flap. A larger family size is also an option.
Blueberry “boulders,” perfect wine splashes, condiments exploding out of cannons are among the fresh, playful, cutting-edge shots captured by photographer/scientist/writer/chef/ and former Chief Technology Officer at Microsoft Nathan Myhrvold, in a book full of visual feasts.
Ferry-Morse
It’s tea-from-the-top when you grow your own. Ferry-Morse’s Tea Herb Garden Kit for DIY gardeners comes with seeds, soil, nutrients, snips, a chamomile recipe—and then a mug for savoring the harvest.
The Ranch Malibu
Created for The Ranch, a domestic spa known for transformative fitness programs, more than 80 mineral components are intensely mined and mixed with lemon and rosemary to create a salt to detoxify the body, replenish lost minerals, and support moisture retention.
Muck
For sure footing on ice, snow, and mud, the traction outsole on these rugged rubber boots prevents slipping. Designed for easy on and off, they provide midsole support, and a footbed that wicks to control odor and manage moisture. Four color choices include a pink/brown option for stepping out in style.
Practice putting any season anywhere with a USA-made indoor putting green. The non-skid artificial turf lies flat with built in sand trap cutouts. Easy to roll up for storage or transport, they come in five different sizes.
