Non-Clutter Gifts For Friends & Neighbors
PICKLEBALL SET
Shopping for an active couple? Introduce them to pickleball! It’s the mini version of tennis, and courts are popping up everywhere as more people join in. This set has everything they need to get started, and the retro look is anything but basic.
SIMPLEHUMAN PAPER TOWEL HOLDER
This paper towel holder is the coolest gadget for a kitchen. Inside the roll is a spray tube for countertop cleaner! It eliminates one bottle from under the sink and comes in 3 color options.
SHIATSU NECK MASSAGER
I thought this was just a gimmick until I bought one to try, and I can honestly tell you it’s worth the hype. This neck massager is so relaxing, and the heat option is lovely after a long day.
ALLERGY-FRIENDLY SNACK BOX
Who doesn’t love a big box of snacks? This gift box includes a nice variety of afternoon pick-me-ups, and each item is free of all major allergens.
DINNER DECISION DICE
This might be the best couple gift on Amazon. Figuring out where to go out to eat or what to order for takeout is easier than ever with this dice set that does the picking for you.
EXTRA LARGE PICNIC BLANKET
This picnic blanket is the perfect gift for a family on your list. Its extra large 80×80 size comfortably fits parents and kiddos and is great for drive-in movies or park outings.
ELECTRONIC DART BOARD
I own this dart board and my husband, son, and I all play it together almost weekly. It’s such a fun family game and doesn’t take up any storage space. Plus it keeps score for you!
FRONT PORCH CLASSICS RUMMIKUB GAME
Speaking of games, Rummikub is my personal favorite, and this retro version from Front Porch Classics is absolutely gorgeous. Gift it to a game lover and they just might use it as decor.
WOOLBUDDY DRYER BALL MONSTERS
Wool dryer balls are the natural replacement for dryer sheets and are so much better for your health and clothing. But they don’t have to be boring. These little monsters are such a cute way to make laundry more fun.
VEPOKA FOOD WARMING MAT
Gift the host on your list this food warming mat and improve their party planning routine forever. This mat keeps food warm for up to four hours to make meal prep much easier. And it rolls up for easy storage.
KERNEL KATCHER POPCORN BOWL
The worst part about eating popcorn is when you’re really into the movie and accidentally bite down on a loose, unpopped kernel. This bowl has a sifter in the bottom to keep the kernels out of reach and the fluffy popcorn on top.
CREATIVE GREEN LIFE GROCERY BAGS
For the eco-friendly friend, these grocery bags are by far the best on the market. They’re strong, spacious, and stand up on their own at the checkout counter.
CASCADE MOUNTAIN TREKKING POLES
Have a friend who takes frequent hiking trips? These strong aircraft-grade aluminum trekking poles make tough hikes safer and more stylish, and they come with a storage bag.
