My kitchen has quietly become the place where so many of my gift ideas come to life.

I’ve loved sharing how I gift, and I’m so grateful for everyone who’s taken the time to watch, like, share or recreate an idea.

Time is the greatest gift in my opinion, and if these ideas have helped take the pressure off gifting, made it more fun, and freed up a little more time for life, then that makes me so happy.

It’s been such a special year and I can’t wait to keep sharing with you. Thank you for making this little corner of the internet so special 🤍

I picked up a few bag charms from and instead of gifting them loose, I popped four into cupcake boxes and tied them with ribbon. It instantly made them feel more considered and gift-ready without needing to add much at all.

This works so well for kids’ besties, party gifts or stocking fillers when you want something small that still feels special. The cupcake boxes do all the heavy lifting and you can easily swap in whatever little bits you have on hand.

One of those simple ideas that’s so easy to recreate.

I put together the sweetest little cake baking themed gift using all Spotlight products and it turned out so beautifully. Such a lovely idea for a baker or anyone who’s just getting into it and honestly so easy to recreate.

Here’s everything I included:
Papyrus Scalloped Cake Box
Wiltshire Springform Pan Rose Gold
Wiltshire Colour Rush Spoonula
Wiltshire Glass Measuring Jug
Culinary Co Tea Towel 2 Pack
Colour Mill Food Colouring
Mondo Round Foil Cake Board

Total came to $52.

My tip: Use the cake box as your presentation box. Pop the cake board down first then layer in each piece so it feels thoughtful and intentional. Finish with ribbon and a cute tag and it looks so special when you gift it.

I popped in-store to to curate two really effective, lovely gifts. One under $100 and one under $200. I wanted to take you through my thought process in case you’re shopping for someone and don’t know where to start.

For the under $100 gift, I kept it simple with a daily walk moment: the Everywhere Belt Bag and classic cap. Practical, matching, and perfect for regular walkers, dog mums, new mums or anyone deep in their hot girl walk era.

For the under $200 gift, I built a Pilates/studio moment using essentials she’ll use every single class - drink bottle, sweat towel, headband and a tote. When everything aligns in tone and purpose, the gift feels instantly more thoughtful.

If you ever walk into a store and feel overwhelmed trying to pull a gift together, choosing a theme first makes everything easier. It gives you a clear direction and stops you from grabbing things that don’t quite work together.

All the inclusions are tagged in my stories if you’d like to recreate either one 🫶🏼

I wanted to share a little peek into how I come up with gift ideas, because once you understand the approach, you can create endless versions yourself.

For this one, I started with the hero piece, the .ive_body gift set. Whenever I’m working with a hero item, I think about what else could I add to turn this into a complete moment?

So I thought about where this product naturally lives - a bathroom, a powder room, a guest space and then layered in pieces that elevate that moment: a hand towel in a similar palette, a plant and pot, also in similar tones. The goal is to create a little “scene” someone can instantly use at home.

Here’s what I used:ive_body wash & lotion duo
Gift box: local discount store
Ribbon: Spotlight
Hand Towel: Bed Bath N Table
Plant: Bunnings
Pot: IKEA
Plant mister: IKEA

I’ve styled everything in my own bathroom so you can see exactly how it works once it’s set up. It’s a beautiful, considered idea for a MIL, a host, or even for a house warming.
