Get A Head Start On Holiday Shopping #Holiday2026

For me, it is never too early to prepare for the Holiday Season! And I love to get gifts for absolutely everyone on my list, as well as items to help me entertain and enjoy the entire season! Check out these great finds!

Have You Landed? by Emma Comery - In this collection of literary profiles, Emma Comery weaves together interviews and research to explore what it means to be the partner of someone in the military. These depictions offer an intimate narrative of the marriages, family dynamics, and interior lives of military partners: the young wife of an intelligence officer who finds herself in the middle of Nevada, a Marine Corps spouse caught in the crossfire of a foreign riot, a therapist who recognizes the signs of mental illness in her own husband, and a new mother who doesn’t know she’s kissing her husband goodbye for the last time. Have You Landed offers nuanced portraits of life across the U.S. military - Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and National Guard - and includes the experiences of wives, husbands, partners, widows, and exes. It describes life as a modern military partner and the commitment to a lifestyle that often challenges our notions of love, family, strength, and self.

Packed with Purpose’s Gift Baskets for co-workers, friends, everyone on your list! These gift baskets feature thoughtfully curated everyday favorites, which can include a speckled ceramic mug, softcover journal, and chocolate-covered pretzels. The gift also supports meaningful social impact, with each purchase supporting employment and job training for veterans while investing in purpose-driven small business makers across the U.S.

Crafted in the Rocky Mountains, McCaffrey Granola uses clean, thoughtfully sourced ingredients to fuel active days and healthy living. Always all-natural, gluten-free, and non-GMO, the granola delivers superior taste without compromise. The perfect fuel for your family.

Cobra Fire Blanket by Mart Cobra is a compact, ready-to-deploy fire blanket that smothers small fires fast by cutting off the oxygen they need. Made of 430+ GSM 100% fiberglass, it handles grease, electrical, and clothing fires with no fumes, residue, or cleanup. Measures 40" x 40" and stores in a high-visibility red pouch with quick-release pull tabs for fast access and easy wall mounting. Ideal for kitchens, cars, RVs, offices, grills, and camping, and can be wrapped around a person during escape.

Eastern Accents is a premier luxury soft goods brand and manufacturer. Their bedding, decorative pillows, drapery, and upholstery are designed and hand-crafted in Chicago studios. We have several throw pillows from them and love them all. They are great accent pieces, but also very functional and comfortable!

Camille Torres Designs Imaginal Cell Collection is American-made jewelry, hand-crafted in small batches from recycled sterling silver in Ashland, Oregon. Each piece is named for a stage of the monarch's transformation. Inspired by the monarch, these designs transform the familiar wing into sculptural, lace-like forms that feel distinctive without reading as traditional butterfly jewelry. The collection includes bright and oxidized sterling silver as well as pieces featuring 24K gold applied using the ancient Korean technique of Keum-boo. I got these beautiful Chrysalis earrings and am so in love with them.

NOON is a drinkable breakfast with 20g of protein, 5g of fiber, no seed oils or added sugars, made with milk and oats. Filled with nutrients and made with real ingredients, NOON is the perfect option during busy days. NOON reimagines breakfast for the modern American household - a grab-and-go complete meal built from real milk and whole oats. Flavors: Milk Chocolate, Creamy Vanilla, Honey Banana. All of the flavors are great, and I use this on my busy mornings while rushing out the door for work! It is fantastic!
