Top 10 Gifts to Give this Holiday Season

Tomorrow is Christmas Eve and I know a few people who wait until the day before Christmas to do any of their Christmas shopping. Me? Not so much. I have been done for a couple of weeks now and I do that so I can relax and enjoy the remainder of the days before the holiday. For those of you who need some ideas, here are the top 10 gifts to give this holiday season.

For the Foodie:

I am the foodie in our home so when I was asked what gifts I would like to receive, this was MY response.

1. Kitchenaid Mixer

2. Butcher Block Island

3. Le Creuset Dutch Oven

For me, these would be my top 3 choices of things to get for the Holidays.

For the Tech Lover

My son is the tech lover, so here are the gifts that he said would make awesome Holiday presents

4. XBox One

5. GPS for his truck

6. Motorola Moto X

Moto X, Motorola’s fully customizable smartphone, offers the ultimate in custom gifting – which is wonderful for my tech loving son. It’s the perfect gift for him because it can be designed to reflect his personal style. He loves Football, so I love this limited edition back I can add that is PERFECT for him.

MotoMaker.com is the online studio where you can design your Moto X. There are thousands of ways to make Moto X unique to you or anyone on your list. You choose the colors, leather or wood and decide all the details: front, back, accents, memory storage, wallpapers, even add a name or a short message that is laser engraved on the back.

I designed this one for myself since I am a pink girl. I even added the name of my blog at the bottom, which is perfect to personalize it for me.

This phone raises the bar in design with a perfectly-sized 5.2-inch HD display and a curved frame that fits comfortably into your hand. It lets you do more using only your voice, working with favorite apps like Facebook, Twitter, Google Play Music and Pandora. It’s aware of where you are–in the car, in a meeting or going to sleep–and adjusts to your preferences accordingly. You can even name it whatever you want and ask it questions. It is THE coolest and hottest gift this season.

Gifts for the Artist

My daughter is the artist and here is her list of gifts she said would make great holiday presents

7. Artist Table

8. Easel for her to display her work

9. Different sizes of canvases in both black and white

She said that would make the ultimate gift for someone who loves art as much as she does.

Gifts for the Man

My husband only had one word for himself. The only gift he wants.

10. Tools

BUT — I think I might surprise him by getting him one of those new Motorola Moto X phones. It is everything he could ever want in a premium smartphone without the premium price. It is available for $99 with a two-year contract and $499 without a contract. Add $25 for the wood or leather backs. I am thinking of getting the leather back one for him and I LOVE that it can be engraved with anything I want to put on it.

What about you? What is on YOUR hottest gifts list for the season?
