Here we are. The night of Black Friday and I hope this email finds you in the midst of calm after chaos. Today I've been on a creative spree and made you some gift guides because I love buying gifts, and over the years, have gotten pretty good at it. Mind you, these aren't the typical influencer gift guides like โ€œwhat to get your toddlerโ€ (for that, may I recommend In Honor of Design? She's the queen there!). Instead, these are a little more unconventional. These are shopping guides for people who are shopping for people who are hard to shop for.

Yes, you read that right. I have ten super practical, kind of quirky gift guides I made just for you. Bonus: each list also tells you what to avoid, what to use caution on, and what gift cards would be appreciated for this hard to shop for person and there's a link to even more ideas on Amazon.

No sports team, BBQ, or alcohol gifts in sight! Let's go from "What do I get this guy?" to "Of course I knew you'd like this!" Because who needs another tie or a grill tools that screams midlife crisis?
Embrace the Boomer Mom in your life with thoughtful picks, minus the clichรฉs. Say no to robes and vases! This year, show her you care without contributing to her ever-growing collection of questionable home decor. Who knew she had a closet full of robes? Let's not add to the madness.
๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿฆณ 3. Gift Ideas for Boomer Dads:
Did you know that Boomer Dads usually quietly pick up a wholesome nature hobby along the way? This list will help you find the perfect balance of practicality and thoughtfulness. Dads and Father-in-Laws deserves more than another "World's Best Dad" mug or a tie that'll languish in a drawer somewhere.
She's not a girl, not yet a woman. Finding Tween Girl gifts can be a challenge, but I have a theory that they share a lot of the same aesthethics as cool, Utah mommy bloggers. Don't believe me? Ask both groups how they feel about cozy clothes and Stanley cups.
๐Ÿง‘โ€๐ŸŽค 5. Gift Ideas for Teen Boys:
An actual 13-year-old boy curated this list and I learned that all males want new socks and it starts even as young as 13. 
A little luxury on a budget? It's possible! Find affordable gems that scream sophistication without breaking the bank. Because even your rich friends can appreciate a good deal. This year, give them something that screams, โ€œI care about you!โ€ while quietly assuring your bank account that you care about it, too. 
How do you say Merry Christmas to your casual acquaintance? Conquer the gift-giving dilemma for people you barely know with universally loved options. And who knows? Maybe this gift will level up your friendship. If you want that. 
Swap out the inappropriate gag gifts and dive into a list of white elephant gifts that'll spark laughs and hopefully a friendly scuffle. Plus we found out that there's one extremely boring gift that will send an entire room into fisticuffs when it comes to gift stealing time. 
Whether it's a new job or the first Christmas with a new baby, find gifts tailored for significant life moments, because hitting milestones should be celebrated with gifts that say, "I see you, adulting and stuff." 
Because sometimes, the hardest person to shop for is staring back at you in the mirror. Treat yourself with gifts that say, "I appreciate you. -me." It's self-love wrapped in a bowโ€”what could be better?
