Find the best gifts for plant lovers with this comprehensive guide. The gifts here are plant-related accessories and tools, everyone, with a love for plants and succulents will love and use.

Amazing Gifts For Plant Lovers They Will Actually Use

2020 was a year of big life lessons, like “wash your hands”, “how to properly wear a mask” and more importantly “plants make great friends you don’t have to socially distance from!” Over the course of the year, as people around the world sheltered in place, local plant nurseries saw a great increase in business. In the spring and early summer, people focused on gardening in order to make their home a cozy hyggelig castle. As summer progressed, house plants became the hygge home decor of choice of the people “forced” to stay home.

This gift guide is for the plant lover in your life. The gifts here are plant-related accessories and tools, everyone, with a love for plants and succulents will love and use. This list was curated from my personal experience and from the recommendations I received from hundreds of fellow plant-lovers when I asked what useful plant-related gifts they would love.

It is “happy new planner day” for this girl! ✏️🗓️ I’ve been using the same @plumpaper format this past year and it’s perfect for a busy self-employed mom of four! Imagine, keeping everything organized in one place?! This has been a game changer for my sanity! ❤️
I don’t know what 2025 holds, but chances are… I don’t know what 2025 holds, but chances are… it’s something that involves “a lot of words”. This amazing “distraction-free” writing tool by @getfreewrite makes me excited for the months to come! This head is bursting with words… begging to be released! 📖 🤔 Thank you, Santa! 🎅🏼❤️
Bricks, bricks… and more bricks! 🧱 If you fin Bricks, bricks… and more bricks! 🧱 If you find yourself also drowning in disassembled LEGO sets, you have two options: cry 😢 or build new and amazing creations! Sarah Dees from @sarahfrugalfunforboys recently published yet ANOTHER AMAZING LEGO inspiration book. This one (“Awesome LEGO Creations With Bricks You Already Own” - the oversized and expanded edition) has the cutest animals, seasonal, functional, creative and imaginative builds. 🦖 🎅🏼 🏎️ 🤖 🐉… This is the perfect gift for families with lots of bricks! Get one for your kids and keep another on-hand for the next gift drive or birthday party! 🥳 Link: https://amzn.to/4eiGQhS 📚 (As an Amazon Associate, I could earn from qualifying purchases.)

🎁 What is my best (and favorite) sanity-saving parenting hack?” you ask?! 🎁 
I love keeping a fully stocked “gift closet” - especially this time of year when last minute gift-giving opportunities arise and community toy drives are everywhere. 
I recently went to Target and stocked up on their selection of KiwiCo boxes. 
If you aren’t familiar with KiwiCo boxes, they are STEM/ STEAM inspired boxes of creative goodness for kids of all ages. These gifts are a fan-favorite among boys and girls alike. 

We have gifted and received countless KiwiCo boxes over the years. They provide hours of scree-free hands-on play and entertainment and there’s always an opportunity for the kids (and adults) to do a deep-dive into a related science topic. 

I bought the 
Jumping Robot (ages 9+)
Domino Machine (ages 9+)
Crystal Ombre Soap (ages 7+)
Light-Up Wire Art (ages 9+)

Next time you are at Target, swing by the toy aisle and grab a couple KiwiCo boxes… and don’t forget to pick up an extra one for your own kids. 
The Domino Machine will NOT make it to the gift closet, Jonah hi-jacked it right away! 

It feels great to be ready for the highly impromptu gift-giving season - it takes my stress down a few notches, which is a total win-win situation! 🏆

#AD Happy Fall! I hope you get outside to enjoy na #AD Happy Fall! I hope you get outside to enjoy nature’s way of showing us that “letting go” can be quite a beautiful process! 🍁 🍂 Personally, I am letting go of stress and the feeling of having to constantly be doing and achieving. There’s something to be said for slowing down and embracing a lifestyle of hygge. 🥰 
If you’ve followed my page for a while, you know my love for Aetrex shoes runs deep. 
Their new Mila style boot is incredibly comfortable, I wear them when I take our little one for a walk, when I grab coffee with a friend or when I enjoy a few minutes of alone time. @aetrexworldwide developed their shoes and signature arch support based on data from over 50 million global foot scans - in other words, a lot of thought went into designing these shoes, so you can be comfortable and not think twice about wearing them!

Today, I met with a new sleep doctor. 👨🏻‍⚕️ 
As I replay our conversation in my head, I am struck by the magnitude of his words. He asked, what I would like out of the appointment, if I questioned my diagnosis of Narcolepsy Type 1. 😴 
I don’t question my diagnosis, nor have I ever - but I worried he would. 🤔 
After we spoke about my sleep routine and daytime sleepiness, he said “even though your sleep study is 20 years old, I don’t doubt its accuracy.” ✅ 
Going into the appointment, I had been worried about meeting a new medical professional, wondering if he would believe my diagnosis, if he would question my symptoms and make me jump through hoops before he would help. 
But my worries were all for nothing and I sit here feeling heard, seen and validated - I know, with a diagnosis like mine, that’s not something to take for granted. ❤️ Advocating for yourself when you have a chronic invisible medical condition is exhausting… tonight, I feel a little less exhausted - and that’s quite the feat for someone with Narcolepsy. #Narcolepsy #NarcolepsyNotAlone ( Photo credit: @thesproutingimage Bedding: @moderndane )

I told him this morning, that I am fiercely proud of how hard he worked this year, how much he learned and especially how well he has advocated for himself. 🥹 He will start 5th grade back at our neighborhood school - which is a direct result of his hard work and self-advocacy. 🏫 I will miss our time together homeschooling. (Understatement of the year!) But I now understand the intricate details of how he learns and this knowledge will help me unapologetically support him  through the rest of his school years. 📚 Jonah, thank you for allowing me the honor of being one of your teachers this past year. You were by far my favorite (and only) student! 🍎

When your teenager says “Do you have a few hours When your teenager says “Do you have a few hours to spend with me, mom? Let’s go”, you immediately STOP what ever you were doing - even if you were resuscitated a squirrel or creating world peace. 🐿️

Our teen told me to get in the car - and wouldn’t tell me where we were going ahead of time. 
He took me to the nursery and bought plants for a planter I bought yesterday. Then he took me to the thrift store where he got me the cutest tea candle holders. 🪴 🕯️ 
But the best gift of all… he gave me his time and presence. 
It was the sweetest Mother’s Day present ever - time with my busy teen.

Have you tried self-paced classes through @outscho Have you tried self-paced classes through @outschool ?

The self-paced classes are perfect for: 
* Kids who are either homeschooled or not, but want to deep-dive into an area of interest. 
* Kids who want learn at their own pace, on their own time. 
* Students who get overwhelmed by online learning and busy online classrooms. 
* Students who don’t want to wait for weekly sessions, but would rather “binge-learn” all the content over a few days. 

The classes are pre-recorded, but you still have direct access to the teacher via messages to ask questions or get feedback. 

Our favorite self-paced class: “Learn Physics With Hands-On STEM Projects” with Ms. Jessica. We love this class because:
* We were able to complete two weeks worth of classes in two days. 
* There are four fun hands-on experiments, easy enough for the student to complete independently. 
* The teacher, Ms. Jessica encourages the student to think creatively to improve their design. 
* The experiments can be done with household items you already own. 
* All the learning feels like creative play and is taught in a way that invites the student to deep-dive into related areas of interest.

Vulnerable post: 🥹 This past weekend was emotio Vulnerable post: 🥹
This past weekend was emotionally draining, life changing and eye-opening. I went to the @wakeupnarcolepsy National Summit, which happened to take place just 40 minutes from our house. 

I’ve never been shy about my Narcolepsy diagnosis. I’m always available to answer questions, encourage people to look for answers and offer support through their sleep disorder journey. In other words, talking about and spreading awareness of Narcolepsy has always come easy to me - because I felt like I was helping others. 

This weekend, as humbling as it was, I came to realize that I might be the one in need of support. 🙋🏼‍♀️

I was diagnosed with Narcolepsy Type 1 twenty years ago. Over the years, I’ve connected with people online who share the same diagnosis. But however strange it may seem, I’ve never met a group of people with Narcolepsy face to face.

Sitting in a ballroom filled with other people with Narcolepsy and the nation’s top Narcolepsy scientists and clinicians (and even a dog with Narcolepsy Type 1) felt surreal and incredibly emotional. Hearing other people’s journeys to diagnosis, realizing how we all share similar paths and daily struggles truly left me shaking and emotional. 🥺 (… and tired 😴)

I am blessed beyond measure to have my husband and kids as my biggest supporters and amazing daily cheerleaders. 📣🥰

But I now also realize, how valuable it is to be part of a community of people who know your struggles without being told and share in your triumphs - because your wins give them hope and encouragement. 🥳

Here’s to realizing the importance of reaching out for support and encouragement. 

Today is the day, I will follow the advice I give others to find support groups and connect with people who share your diagnosis and journey.
Someone LOVES their new clothes from the recent @k Someone LOVES their new clothes from the recent @kidpik sale. 😍 As the youngest of four boys, this kid is the king of hand-me-downs. So when there’s a great sale on cool high-quality clothes, we jump at the chance to freshen up his wardrobe. ❤️ #kidpik #sponsored
Core memories were made today on the Watchman Trai Core memories were made today on the Watchman Trail at Zion National Park. 🏞️ I just looooooove and cherish the time spent with these five amazing humans. 😍 Their humor, their soul, their spirit… I am so darn lucky to call these men my “family”. You are welcome world… We made these four little men - treat them well! ❤️
