Everyone has someone likes this on their list. A person who is incredibly hard to shop for. Today I have rounded up some of the most amazing products out there, that anybody would be thrilled to receive. From all natural perfume and lotion bars to the ultimate crafting machine or even a drone, this lists is your one stop guide for that hard to shop for person.
Handmade soaps, lotion bars and perfumes from Autumn Blooms
Natural Perfume
These gorgeous perfumes are made of 100% pure, organic jojoba oil and pure essential oils. Nothing more. They are the perfect gift for someone that wants a fresh new scent to wear without all of the crummy chemicals that come in other perfumes. My absolute favorite scent is Grapefruit Citrus which is a combination of grapefruit, lemon and orange. There is an incredible amount of different choices such as,
-Orange dreamsicle: Orange, vanilla, and chamomile
-Patchiness: Invigorating happiness of patchouli, lemon, and lime
-Vetiver Earth: Vetiver and grapefruit combine to create a powerful, earthy, woodsy smell.
-Lavenilla Orange: Orange, vanilla, and lavender
-Rose Love: Rose, Neroli, and ylang ylang
-Rose Petal: Rose, orange, chamomile
and so many more. Don’t love any of the premade combinations? You can have one mixed up with your favorite scents.
Natural Lip Balms
Just like the perfumes, these lip balms are full of all natural ingredients. The lip balms are all made in small batches to ensure that you lip balm is recently made and full of ingredients that seal in moisture. This 100% organic lip balm is full of natural ingredients like organic coconut oil and Mountain Rose Herb’s organic shea butter. There are no chemicals, synthetic materials, or petroleum in any of Autumn Blooms products including their lip balms.
Lotion Bars
These solid lotion bars are perfect for dry or chapped skin. You rub the solid bar straight onto your skin to hydrate. I love the Dandelion Lotion Bar, I never knew there were good parts to a dandelion before trying this bar. Dandelion nutrients include:
Minerals: Dandelions contain magnesium, potassium, calcium, and phosphorus. These minerals hydrate the skin and support its functions.
Antioxidants: Dandelions are high in Vitamin C and help with signs of aging.
Antifungal: The nutrients from the stem are high in alkaline levels which fight off infections in the skin’s tissues. This is especially helpful for itchy skin like eczema and the bacteria that causes acne.
I have been using this bar on my winter chapped hands and I have been absolutely loving it.
Natural Remedies
Healing Salve – This Salve is the whole reason I discovered Autumn Blooms in the first place. My sister began talking about this salve and all of the wonderful things it was doing for her child’s eczema. When it came I was nervous to apply it to my daughter’s eczema, so first I used it on a friction rash on my wrist from my fitbit. The rash was gone in a day! After that I felt more confident using on my daughter and it has done wonders for her. I have been really impressed with what it can do for sensitive skin and those with eczema.
Headache Ease – I will say this is hands down one of my favorite products. As someone who suffers from frequent headaches, this is a product that I use often. I have been using plain peppermint oil on my temples for headaches but the burning sensation started to deter me. This has no burning with all of the same benefits, it comes in a convenient roller bottle that I can easily carry in my purse.
All Natural Vapor Rub – For the longest time, I had no idea that you weren’t supposed to use vapor rub on small children. When I found out I immediately started looking for a replacement, I love this Vapor Rub in comes in both a version for kids under 12 and an adult version. I am so glad to have something that helps my kids while they are sick that won’t possibly hurt them like the store bought stuff.
Wisdom &Wordplay
“Wisdom & Wordplay offers the ideal gift for all who love words and for whom English is either their first or second language,” says Eddison. “It’s is rich source of ideas, as much for the best man at a wedding as for the conference delegate, stuck for a light-hearted way to open a speech. Plus, it is just a fun everyday read.”
Wisdom & Wordplay is packed with 300 highly original one-liners, taken from Robert Eddison’s own uniquely coined stash of thousands. They come under 150 different subjects, ranging from sex to political correctness. This book comprises a fraction of Robert’s awesome oeuvre, conjured up, since the end of the last century, on the back of innumerable envelopes and buses. “A life well-lived is to die for.”As a widely-respected journalist, public speaker and playwright, Robert has, rather incredibly, noted down every original thought that he’s had since June 1997. In his voluminous “thought diaries”, he records his daily reflections, rather than his activities. This book will not provide you the slightest clue as to Robert’s opinion on any given subject, since this paradox-lover’s box-fresh aphorisms often contradict each other, but it will serve to hugely entertain
Cricut Maker
SPABALL Massage Kit
While doing deep trigger point work can be very beneficial to the person getting a massage, it can be very pain to the hands of the person giving the massage. Liscensed massage therapist, Heather Karr, wanted to create something that would give therapist and clients the best of both worlds. From her original protoype of sculpey clay to its current form, Spaball has undergone years of tests and modifications.
The SPABALL now comes in a convenient home kit which includes the easy to understand instructional guidance, a SPABALL, a golf ball and an instructional DVD of byHeather Karr, LMT sharing techniques she uses with her own private clients and on herself for effective therapeutic self-massage. This kit focuses on teaching people how to use massage for pain relief right in their own home. There is not replacing a professional massage, but this kit is perfect for daily massages to help keep the pain away.
I have been using this for several weeks and I am completely blown away at how much difference a small tool can make in making a massage more effective. The SPABALL is small enough to maintain skin contact but it aids in applying the pressure needed for a deep tissue massage at home.
I would absolutely recommend this to any athlete, sufferer of chronic pain or just someone who loves massages.

The Chicago Tribune Book of the Chicago Cubs
My family has been Cubs fans my entire life. I grew up watching them play on TV and even making the road trip to Wrigley Field to see them play in person when I was a teenager. Watching the Cubs play in the 2016 World Series seriously almost gave me an ulcer. Know you can relive the magical win and all of the most amazing Cubs moment over more than 100 years.
The Chicago Tribune Book of the Chicago Cubs is a decade-by-decade look at one of baseball’s most beloved if hard-luck teams, starting with the franchise’s beginnings in 1876 as the Chicago White Stockings and ending with the triumphant 2016 World Series championship.
For more than a century, the Chicago Tribune has documented every Cubs season through original reporting, photography, and box scores. For the first time, this mountain of Cubs history has been mined and curated by the paper’s sports department into a single one-of-a-kind volume. Each era in Cubs history includes its own timeline, profiles of key players and coaches, and feature stories that highlight it all, from the heavy hitters to the no-hitters to the one-hit wonders.
And of course, you can’t talk about the Cubs without talking about Wrigley Field. In this book, readers will find a complete history of that most sacred of American stadiums, where Hack Wilson batted in 191 runs—still the major-league record—in 1930, where Sammy Sosa earned the moniker “Slammin’ Sammy,” and where fans congregated, even when the team was on the road, throughout its scintillating championship run.
The award-winning journalists, photographers, and editors of the Chicago Tribune have produced a comprehensive collector’s item that every Cubs fan will love.

robin rue says
Lip balms are always a good idea for me. My lips are always chapped in the winter. I think my boys would love a drone.
Amber Myers says
These are some fabulous ideas! I might have to try that healing salve. My husband has bad eczema and refuses to get cream from the doctor. So maybe this will help.
Alli Smith says
My kids say I’m the hardest to buy for because I have everything. I need to show them this post and throw a few hints their way. 🙂
Teresa says
You have selected a great group of gifts for hard to purchase for persons you may know. My MIL is super hard to buy for, she has everything and literally no matter what I buy her, she returns it! It drives me bonkers. I know my FIL would really love that CUBs book, I might have to get that for him this year
Lisa says
These are all great ideas. As usual, my husband can be a hard one to buy for. But that drone is super cool.
Heather @ Kraus House Mom says

I think all the men in our family would love to have a drone. Just like little boys always talking about them. Love the all natural items made for personal use.
Kisa Johnson says
What an awesome assortment of gifts. I’d love a Cricut myself actually. Hopefully someday I’ll get one.
Karen Dawkins says
Great list of creative gifts. We have several family members who have everything they need — and a couple who have everything they could possibly want. We make homemade treats and then make a donation to charity in their honor (like Greyhound Rescue for the couple with a rescued greyhound).
Liz Mays says
I can definitely see the RC drone being a good gift. Those always look like they’re fun to fly!
Franc Ramon says
The spaball could be a nice gift and could really give you a nice soothing massage. The drone would also be a nice one especially those who are into gadgets.
valmg @ Mom Knows It All says
I cannot believe Christmas is almost here. I’m not ready! The only people I worry about what to get that have most things is my parents.
Dina Demarest says
My parents has everything and because of this gift guide, I already know what to give them for Christmas! Thank you!
Amanda says
As a life long Chicagoan, I think your recommendation of the Cubs book is so incredibly spot on. There is no other team that perfectly encapsulates the power of the human spirit to overcome!
Mimi Green says
I’ve got a Cricut maker on my list this year. I have a first generation Cricut and it does nothing compared to the new one.
Bohemian Babushka says
What an eclectic, excelente list!! Honestly, there is something for anybody who’s hard to shop for, and quite a few in there good for BB (who isn’t hard to shop for at all). Gracias for the ideas. BB2U
