hi guys and welcome back to my channel if you are new welcome my name is Hannah and on this channel we talk all things home decor home Aesthetics mixing high and low new and old and in today's video we are doing a gift guide for the kitchen lover so if this is something you are interested in watching just keep on watching so in today's video we are going to be talking about some gift ideas for the kitchen lover someone that loves to bake someone that loves to cook someone that just loves being in the kitchen in general I have a handful of ideas for gifts that I want to share with you guys these are all tried and true these are items that live in my kitchen currently that I want to share with you all giving you guys some ideas if you are planning on gifting something for the kitchen this holiday season now everything will be linked Down Below in the description box and I have everything from Super inexpensive to things that are a little bit more of a Splurge item maybe for that really special person in your life so I definitely have price points for every single person here but without further to you guys let's get into today's video all right so the very first item is an all glass simmer pot and I'm sure you guys are over hearing about this simmer pot but I personally love mine so much I simmer every single day throughout the day when I'm home and at nighttime this is such a great and inexpensive gift to give to someone I got mine on Amazon for about $31 they will fluctuate obviously if you're buying off of Amazon they will fluctuate in price but this is also a really great hostess gift so if you are planning to go over to someone's home for the holidays I would suggest getting your All Glass simmer pot and almost putting the ingredients of a specific simmer recipe within it packaged with cellophane and a beautiful bow and you're done it's such a great gift and I think I love it for few reasons not only is it aesthetic you can either leave it on your stove just clean and just as almost like a Decor item or just even having it on is just such a great way to have that beautiful Ambiance during the season you have the the sound of the bubbles of it simmering you have the scent which is all organic using obviously all organic items like your apples your oranges and whatnot and it is a really great really great gift for those of you who are trying not to spend a lot of money but also bring something that's a little bit more heartfelt as well so that is the first item second item for the kitchen lover is pepper Mills now I know these are going to be a Splurge for some people but I think this is obviously something that is a staple for any kitchen and peppermills are great because they bring in not only a new material so you're bringing in brass or whatever finish you end up going with you're bringing in that visual interest aspect which you're giving height to a space for me I have an all-white very Stark kitchen this is a builder grade kitchen and so I have to get really creative with bringing in different elements to help soften that so not only is it functional by being a salt and pepper mill you are bringing in a brass element you are bringing in height by maybe layering two different sizes they're just really really cool and one thing I really do enjoy about these particular peppermills which I got on Amazon they age they patina so when you first get them they're super shiny they're new looking but the more you use them the more lived in they look and that is honestly something I really really love because they're just super unique okay so for an 8 in Peppermill it's about $100 these are on Amazon and the one seller that I got mine from does have another finish in rose gold so depending on the person you're buying for you can either go the brass which is kind of that traditional stapled look or you can go the rose gold as well but do keep in mind they are going to Patina they're going to age over time they would make a really great gift for that person that maybe doesn't want to spend the money on something like that but would be really great addition to their kitchen countertops all right if you are not looking to spend a ton of money on a gift for someone a cooking book is a no-brainer it is something that you cannot go wrong with they're super inexpensive you can honestly find them at TJ Maxx Amazon HomeGoods HomeGoods has a ton of them this time year with giftgiving so definitely be on the hunt for that a few of my favorites are the Magnolia Home Series I love Sunday suppers Harvest is a really great one I gear my cookbooks around Aesthetics as well so I'm looking at the book I'm looking at the spine I'm looking if it's going to make sense as far as colors go within my personal space so there's a lot of really beautiful cooking books that are neutral that will honestly go with any kitchen style for me My love language is giftgiving so when I'm putting together a gift for someone I like to do kind of bundles so if you're going to do a cooking book maybe pair a an oven mitt with it or some fresh utensils and kind of gift it together wrap it in cellophane and there you go you have a wonderful gift for someone that maybe you don't know all that well or one you just don't want to spend that much money on and you can pick these up super cheap from anywhere so that's the next so this next kitchen item isn't necessarily a must but I love these in my kitchen I think they add so much visual interest I get questions on them all the time and that is mortars so I'm going to give you guys two different scenarios or two different examples I have my vintage marble ones that I got on Etsy these are from Europe and they are just stunning they add visual interest they add a different material because they are marble and I use them for different purposes right now I have my fresh cranberries in there and some fresh cloves just for the holiday season but you could use this as a pinch you could also use this as a way to house maybe smaller fruit like limes or lemons Within These bowls and just have it on a beautiful showcase within your kitchen now I understand marble mortars that come from Europe are a little bit more of an investment so this would be something for someone you're going to want to splurge on but for those of you who don't want to go that route I also have ones that are stone that are way more inexpensive and they do just as good of a good job of adding that visual interest you can use them for the same reasons a salt pinch dish a little bould of house maybe garlic or limes or lemons and they just add so much character and one thing I really love about mortars especially vintage is because they're all different they're all going to vary in color they're all going to vary in shape they just add that unique touch that sometimes our kitchens crave so that's the next item all right the next item is cutting boards you can go one of two ways with cutting boards you can go the Vintage route which you guys will see within my b-rolls I showcase my beautiful vintage cutting boards I have them in various sizes I have them in various patinas these are cutting boards solely for looks I would not recommend utilizing these for any reason these are honestly just Decor elements but they really bring this lived in used just really cool Feeling Again to my very white Stark kitchen now those range from anywhere from 60 to 100 plus dollars depending on the size that you go and obviously the seller varies as well second route is you guys can new cutting board route which you can find those for like $20 at HomeGoods HomeGoods has the best selection of cutting boards honestly different shapes I've gotten some of my few checkerboard ones from there and I love them now again coming back to the whole gifting and having a gift bundle if you're planning on going The Cutting Board route I would maybe pair something else with it something that makes sense you could do a cooking book with a cutting board you could do utensils with a cutting board if they're a baker you can add some measuring spoons I kind of bundle it together so it makes sense and you're kind of creating a story for a gift so definitely have cutting board on your list I think another thing too I want to add really quickly is you can hop on Etsy Etsy has cutting boards that you can have custom made so you can have maybe Grandma's recipe that she wrote on a card engraved on the actual cutting board itself which is beautiful I'll make sure to leave like an image of that and I think that is such a heartfelt wonderful gift idea for that person that maybe wants to take it a step further and do something a little bit more personable definitely check out Etsy for a more customizable cutting board look all right the next item is definitely a Splurge item so if you are looking to invest in a great gift for someone this holiday season a Kitchen Aid mixer is an iconic home appliance that I think any kitchen lover would be thrilled to receive now I have two of them I recently got a beautiful green one with the beautiful limited edition wooden B and it just makes me so happy I love having it on at my kitchen countertops they're not only a Decor element but they're functional as well I use them when I'm baking with my kids and I think every woman or man would be absolutely thrilled to receive one of these KitchenAid mixer has been around since 1919 so they're obviously very good at what they do they make great products they have really great warranty on their items as well they have unlimited amount of attachments so you can use it not only just for baking but grounding up meat I mean the list goes on but if if you are planning to buy a KitchenAid mixer for someone I would definitely make sure you know their style because obviously they come in a variety of different colors and so you definitely want to buy something that's going to have longevity maybe not you know a hot pink one something that's going to be a classic Timeless look but I definitely think Kitchen Aid mixer is a great gift these range anywhere from $350 upwards of 700 depending on which style you get which color if it's limited edition Etc that is the next item on our list so the next item is not like something that's super fancy or a wow gift but I definitely think kitchen towels is something every person needs in their home we get mine get thrashed personally after so many uses and so many washes they start to get dingy they start to get yellowed from just discoloration of you know cleaning our hands and whatnot so I definitely think a kitchen towel is something every person in the kitchen will need you can pick these up at TJ Maxx HomeGoods some boutiques online carry some more unique ones and they obviously vary from $5 at HomeGoods to $15 to $20 at any Boutique and like I've mentioned in our previous topics bundling this so you could serve this kitchen towel with a beautiful cooking book wrap it in cellophan and put a bow on it there you go you can serve it with a bottle of wine so I'm all about creating a gift that has multiple items in it and they don't need to be expensive just get creative wrap it in cellophane and call it a day so definitely adding kitchen towels as a more inexpensive gift for those of you who are going to be going to a party or some of maybe you just don't know all that well so that's the next it all right and the very last item on this kitchen lover home decor gift guide is an olive oil decanter now obviously this is a staple item that everybody's going to have in their kitchen this is something super easy super inexpensive the one that I Showcase in my B- rules it's from Amazon I believe I paid roughly $25 or $28 it's very inexpensive comes with a wooden top and I just really liked it for its shape I think a really fun gift to do with the olive oil decanters maybe pair it with a really nice bottle of olive oil you could even get like a little sprig of Olive and tide on there with twine you can get super creative again this might be a gift for someone you don't know all that well maybe you know they really love cooking this would be a really fun option to give to someone and it's not going to break the bank so again the last item on this kitchen lover gift guide is an olive oil to Candy all right you guys and that is it for today's video I hope you enjoyed my kitchen lover gift guide again these are all tried and true I own them I love them and I hope that you guys
