Webp 14edited

Christmas shopping for your adult friends and family can be difficult.

To take the guesswork out of buying gifts this year, we at NE Iowa News asked our friends at The Grommet for their latest and greatest practical gift suggestions for 2021.

These guides are geared towards specific interests. You’ll be able to find something for even the toughest person on your Christmas shopping list.

Top 5 Gifts Under $500

1) Stainless Steel Fingernail Clipper
Grooming tools from Seki Edge are superior in ability and durability. Crafted in the mountains of Japan, these tools represent a centuries-old heritage of excellence passed down from samurai sword makers.

2) Kid's Cotton Canvas Indoor Play Tent
Role Play: Kid's Cotton Canvas Indoor Play Tent - Log Cabin

3) Non-Stick Oven Crisper Basket
NoStik: Non-Stick Oven Crisper Basket - Large

4) Natural Coconut Oil Deodorant
Feel (and smell) fresh, all day long. Coconut oil deodorant skips the common nasty ingredients in favor of natural ones and is long-lasting, effective, and gentle on skin. Baking soda neutralizes odors, coconut oil thwarts bacteria, and arrowroot powder absorbs moisture. Essential oils round out the formula with fresh, light scents, or opt for unscented where magnesium does the odor-neutralizing job. Made in the USA.

5) LOFTi + DUO Drying Rack
A perfect pair. LOFTi is a clothes-drying rack that suspends from the ceiling by an easy-to-use pulley system. DUO can hang virtually anywhere and can even break down into separate components that can attach onto the ends of LOFTi.
