Dream Tea NYC ($36)
Is there a tea lover on your list? With the Dream Tea customization service, you can create a custom tea blend just for them, choosing from fruity, floral, or earthy selections with 14 ingredients and 3 bases (black tea, green tea, and chamomile). I created a delightful blend of chamomile with osmanthus in a pretty pink tin.
You can also choose the color of the tin and add their name to the tin. Each tin has 40 servings.

Lorraine and Alfie Personalized Name Candles ($75. Currently $64)
I love giving candles as gifts, but these personalized candles take candle gifting to a new level! You choose from several scents – Eucalyptus Lavender Herb is wonderful – and complete a brief questionnaire about your recipient. Then, a custom label is made for the glass jar with a sweet story about the candle and your giftee.
The hand-poured 9oz candle is 100 percent natural soy wax blend with a cotton wick.
BruMate Personalized Drinkware ($24.99 and up)
BruMate is known for stylish and sturdy travel drinkware that is also leakproof.
You can customize a BruMate drinking vessel with fun options, like icons, initials, and text for an $8 flat fee, and the customization is quick and easy. I chose a 22oz. NAV, which is a good size for coffee or water. It fits in a car cup holder or a tote bag when I’m out and about.
Print Art Kids Custom Notepad ($39.95 and up)
Print Art Kids specializes in personalized items featuring original art, whether it’s a kid’s creation or an adult’s. Available products include notecards, notepads, journals, postcards, and puzzles.
I created a set of 4 3.75 X 9 notepads featuring a drawing of my daughter’s and they come with a magnetic strip for the fridge. The notepads are made from recycled paper and available with or without lines. Prices start as low as $19.95. Gift packaging is available for a fee; a personalized note is free.
Leatherman Custom Shop ($39.95 and up plus $9.95 and up for customization)
Leatherman tools are known for their quality and convenience. Their tools fold out in myriad ways and have anywhere from 2 functions to 21, including scissors, screwdrivers, pliers, tweezers, knives, and more. The tools are available in a variety of colors, and when you add customization, you can choose from a mix of words, patterns, and designs to make your recipient’s tool truly their own. I had a chance to design my own Leatherman Signal, a tool with 19 uses! I added text and a fun pattern.

The Stationery Studio 2025 Leather Planner ($54 and up)
This elegant, handcrafted, 5.5 x 8-inch planner is available in daily, weekly, monthly, or journal format and has a soft bonded leather cover with 160 double-sided ivory pages and a ribbon bookmark. You can choose from over a dozen leather colors as well as the imprint color and personalization style.
My husband gets a new planner every year and he will love this one!
Things Remembered Personalized Acacia Nesting Boards ($149.99)
This is a fantastic gift for someone who has limited space but loves to entertain. The 3 acacia wood serving boards nest together for easy storage, but offer lots of display space for cheese and snacks when it’s time to party. The largest board, which can be personalized with one line of text, measures 24 x 8 and stands 4 inches high. The smaller boards nest below.
Demeter Fragrance Foolproof Blending Tool Kit ($8 and up)
The creative fragrance lover on your list can blend their own signature scent, thanks to this fragrance blending kit. To round out the gift, you’ll want to select some scents your recipient can blend with. The scent sets and individual scents are available on DemeterFragrance.com.
Type League Press Personalized Baby Skinny Tumbler ($30)
Type League Press makes personalized drinkware, tote bags, golf towels, and more featuring a photo of your recipient’s baby and your choice of phrase. You can also choose to feature a pet, so I uploaded a photo of our pet rabbit, Willow!
I selected the Baby Skinny Tumbler, which is an ideal size and shape for hot/cold coffee and tea.
The 20oz. Tumbler has double-wall vacuum insulation with a slider lid and reusable straw. It also fits in a car cupholder. Hand wash only, not microwave safe.
