Spooky season means cozy season — inside are gifts for both.

1. A Spooky Cutie stress relief coloring book, because spooky season is here, baby! This’ll give your sibling a fun activity to do on their day off while reminding them that their fave holiday is ~eerily~ close.

Promising review: “I got this on a whim, but seriously, I’m going to frame some of these for the walls in my house. I can never find spooky topics with the bright bold colors I want, so I’m so excited to be able to make them myself.” —Nick Toland

Price: $9.99

2.

A travel activity tray if your kiddo seems to always need *just one more* toy to play with during long haul trips. This tray stores everything from markers and crayons to books and even a water bottle, so they can stay busy during travel.

amazon.com

Promising review: “Bought this to keep my toddler entertained during a seven-hour road trip, AND IT WORKED. Easy to set up quickly, stores away flat, great size, and convenient pockets to hold the dry-erase pens and eraser (included). We did lots of coloring, but also used it as a stable table to play with other toys and eat snacks. Definitely recommend getting one!” —Chloe Young

Price: $27.99+ (available in 12 designs)

3. A pair of comfy Barefoot Dreams socks to keep your pal’s toes warm while adhering to the current leopard trend that’s EVERYWHERE.
Promising review: “They are worth the $18. So soft it’s unreal. I never sleep with socks on, but these are the only socks I will — especially going into the colder seasons right now, they are the best to wear around the house to keep your feet warm. They feel like wearing a cloud, they’re that soft.” —Amazon Customer

Price: $17+ (available in two styles)

4.

A toothbrush holder in a gorge marble design that your minimalist friend will love. They can use this in their bathroom to hold toothbrushes or makeup brushes, or even on their desk for pens!

Price: $11.99+ (available in three styles and nine colors)

5.

A set of small markers for the petite artiste you know and love! Not only would their markers be as cute as them, but this set also makes doodling on the go pretty easy.

amazon.com

Promising review: This was perfect for a mini family road trip with my 6-year-old. It was nice to see her take a break from the tablet and let her imagination go wild. They were easy to wash off my seats since some of them had lost their lids. Luckily, they still clicked into the case even without the lids.” —Asia

Price: $9.99 for a 65-pack

6. An air fryer that’s cute, minimalist, and functional — aka the perfect gift for anyone in your life! Your giftee can use this to roast or air fry their favorite meals, or even dehydrate things like fruit for some yummy snacks! (I use my air fryer to make dried mangoes all the time, btw, and it is remarkable.)

Amazon

Promising review: “I love this air fryer! I use it almost daily. It is small, but that’s why I bought it. Makes it easier to cook for one. It is even cute enough to leave on my counter all of the time. Love!” —Alsun825

Price: $52.45

7.

A scalloped tray, because a tray is one of those things that can be used anywhere in a home! Your new homeowner pal can use this as a catchall in their foyer, a perfume tray in their bedroom, or as a incense holder near their bath!

Amazon, amazon.com

Promising review: “Charming and functional — the perfect decorative touch. This wicker scalloped tray is beautifully crafted and adds the perfect touch of texture and charm to any space. The scalloped edges give it a unique, vintage-inspired look, and it’s just the right size for styling candles, coffee table books, vases, or use as a food tray. Lightweight but sturdy, it’s as practical as it is pretty. A lovely piece for any home.” —Simply_Dazlyn

Price: $23.39+ (available in five sizes and two styles)

8. A Sol de Janeiro Delicia Drench Shower Oil so your skincare-loving bestie can bring the art of an oil cleanse to their body. This smells like a floral dream and lathers to a creamy foam to keep their skin clean *and* moisturized.

Promising review: “This is a beautiful scent. My skin pulls the floral aspect of this fragrance. It lathers well and made my skin very moisturized coming out of the shower (which is great, in my opinion, because I have extremely sensitive dry skin). I ordered a small jar to try it out, and now I want the larger size.” —LaKeya 

Price: $12+ (available in two sizes)

9. A faux monstera plant, because plants are a really great housewarming gift! Still, if your giftee often travels and they can’t get to watering actual plants as often, this is a great option to gift to them.

Promising review: “I have given up on trying to keep real plants alive, so I decided to give fake plants a try. This is my first one. I am happy with the way it looks. It was easy to put together. I placed the moss in the pot, and that gives it a more realistic look.” —Darlene Tangedahl

Price: $20.99+ (available in four sizes)

10. A gold-tone bar cart so your sibling can razzle-dazzle their guests with their Gatsby-level bar setup. This’ll definitely be an upgrade for the current cupboard in which they’re storing all their spirits and stemware.Promising review: “I couldn’t be more thrilled to have ordered and received this fancy cart! It’s so beautiful and versatile. It fits in the space at the end of our small apartment bar, in our kitchen/living room area. It’s so perfect and mobile.” —Anne Marie Grimmer

Price: $178.72+ (available in gold, rose gold, and black)

11. A “The Peckish Pirates” puzzle box if your pal is really into challenges! This 1,000-piece jigsaw puzzle contains so much detail in each piece, which’ll give your giftee something fun to do for hours on end.

Promising review: “Another stellar puzzle from Magic Puzzle Company, featuring high-quality pieces, a hidden final image, and a unique solving experience. The artwork is full of detail, making it an immersive and engaging build. The pieces fit together snugly, with no puzzle dust, and the final reveal adds an element of surprise. If you’re looking for a high-quality puzzle that’s more than just a standard jigsaw, this one is worth every penny.” —Baloptimus

12. A cowboy boot vase so your bestie can put a little yee-haw into their interior design. They can display this as is, or use it to hold flowers!

Price: $28.95

A chunky knit throw blanket, just in case you want to gift your pal something that feels homemade, but you’re still working on your DIY skills (same — knitting can get complex!). Your friend will love to snuggle up under this during movie nights, and enjoy the look of it draped over their couch when not in use!

Amazon

Promising review: “This is perhaps my best purchase on Amazon ever. It’s gorgeous. It’s beautifully made. It’s thick, soft, and warm. It comes in a reusable drawstring bag that gives the impression that the purchase is designer — what a great touch! I can’t say enough how much I love the color, texture, and richness of this throw. I know I’ll have to purchase one for my daughter.

I’ve had this a while and have washed it in the machine on delicate and dried it in the dryer, and it still looks just as it did when it arrived. It did not stretch out or shrink, and is still soft. I have to fight my dogs and my daughter over it lol. I LOVE this blanket!” —K.

Price: $49.99+ (available in three sizes and five colors)

14. A compact, beginner-friendly watercolor palette, because as someone who has recently gotten into watercoloring, I can tell you that EVERYONE can benefit from the calming act of painting (even if they’re not good at it, like me!). Your giftee will love you for this screen-free activity.Promising review: “Love collecting watercolor sets, and this one is amazing — so many exquisite colors to paint with. Creativity is everything, and imagination with all these colors is unlimited. Pure happiness!” —pve

amazon.com

Promising review: “Fun little game for travel! Kept the kids (and me) entertained on a long road trip. There’s plenty of puzzles to do and lots of different levels of difficulty to keep my kids (eight and 11) entertained, and even some that stumped me!” —CanyonG

Price: $10.97

18. A Chemex pour-over coffeemaker designed with Borosilicate glass that’ll lock in flavor *and* give your giftee an unforgettable cup of coffee. They’ll probably not miss their daily trip to the coffee shop, because they can make their fave hot beverage at home!Promising review: “I bought this as a gift for my coffee-loving boyfriend, and I gotta say, it is pretty incredible. I’m not much of a coffee drinker, and have a hard time discerning different flavors and qualities of coffee, but there is a clear difference with the Chemex. It’s easy and fun to use, and makes such a wonderful smooth cup. I wish I had looked into the Chemex before purchasing an electronic coffee maker, because at nearly half the price of my electric drip machine, the Chemex coffee tastes better, and is ready in a shorter amount of time. 10/10 recommend this incredible product!” —Taylor

Price: $48.93

19. A set of faux-wool pillow covers that’s a one-two punch for anyone who likes both being cozy and having a cute home. This adds just the right amount of texture to any couch or bed setup and will absolutely be a comfy place for your giftee to lay their head during a nap.Amazon

Promising review: “These pillow covers are absolutely dreamy! They’re SO soft — they feel just like curly sheepskin, but even better. The texture is rich and plush, and I honestly can’t stop running my hands over them. Lying my face on these pillows feels like sinking into a cloud. They are beautiful and functional and completely worth what I paid. They fit the correct-size pillow I ordered perfectly. They add such a warm, cozy vibe to my space and instantly make my couch and bed feel extra inviting. The quality is fantastic too — thick, well-made, and did I mention soft? I’m completely obsessed and might need a few more for every room!” —Jennylee

Price: $17.99+ (available in five sizes and 17 colors)
