Perhaps one of the more unusual gifts she could receive this year, but such a unique gift idea!
She’ll receive a ring-making kit in the mail, complete with everything she needs to design her ring. Once she’s created her masterpiece, she sends it back to the expert jewelers at Workbench London. They’ll then craft it according to her ring size, preferred metal, and preferred width. When she gets compliments on her unique ring, she’ll love telling everyone she designed it herself.

Literally, the perfect pair of sunglasses is just a couple of clicks away. If you’re confident in your ability to guess what she’ll want, design them and ship them to her. If not, give her a Ray-Ban gift card and let her design her own!
Beer Chiller
When SOMEONE has to keep his beer cold, and that someone is you!
Warm beer? Never again. These stainless steel chiller sticks are built for the guy who takes his brews seriously—whether he’s manning the grill, kicking back in the yard, or holding court in his man cave. Just freeze, pop it in the bottle, and enjoy a cold one till the last drop. We love that they come gift-boxed with a built-in bottle opener—ready to hand off to your brother, your best man, or your favorite beer snob.
Boxing Bell
The design of this vintage Bevin Brothers bell is best known in the boxing world as a signal between rounds, at the New York Stock Exchange to signal closings, and on ice cream trucks to signal relief for the summertime heat. Its ring also signals every time an angel gets its wings in “It’s a Wonderful Life.”
So not only is this bell pretty useful, it’s definitely a conversation starter and a really cool decorative accent to any interior! A unique gift is the best kind of gift.

We loved how this kit transforms a simple wooden frame into a lush little forest scene you build yourself. With preserved moss, wood slices, dried florals, and even a pinecone or two, it’s a refreshingly hands-on way to bring nature indoors. The thoughtful packaging and easy instructions make it a standout gift for plant lovers, crafters, or anyone needing a mindful break.
