It's that time of year when we have to start thinking about our holiday gifts, let's face it there are not that many days between now and Christmas! There is no better time to shop local for unique, quality gifts (and every time you do shop keepers around the world are like YAY!). It's become a tradition at Ebb & Flow to crowdsource your unhinged gift needs, and the results this year were better than ever. This will be a three part series, with three guides per post. Need more help? You can find us 7 days a week at Ebb & Flow, 906 E. Center Street, and my DMs are always open!
The person who wants a cute kitchen but never actually cooks

The great thing about a butter dish is that no one has to know if there isn't butter in it. This butter dish is a STUNNER, handmade by our friends at Base Ceramics in Brooklyn.
These would work great to serve takeout...or other stuff. Made from Beech Wood with an oil finish.
Because even their unused stove deserves to be accessorized, this ceramic spoon rest can catch utensils, or admiring looks!
If they aren't cooking, hopefully they are at least doing the dishes? These sponges are cute enough to leave on the counter and will literally make your kitchen sparkle.
Can be used to keep track of time for anything...and has a convenient, strong magnet that can be stuck to a stove or fridge.
Everybody has to eat, even they can appreciate well seasoned food.
A celebration of California home cooking with 130 recipes and more than 300 photos - basically a coffee table book for your kitchen.
Inspired by everyone’s favorite cooking staples: A cold peroni and vine ripe tomatoes.
Cute & FANCY.

There's never been a better time to get him hooked on Baggu.
Forget your sunglasses on day, never look back. Handcrafted bioacetate frames—biodegradable, plant-based, earth-friendlier, high clarity lenses with 100% UVA/UVB protection (the perfect frames).
An Ebb & Flow fav, you can both enjoy this 100% wool hook rug (no matter where it ends up).
The aesthetic sister

You heard it here first, butter dishes are THE hottest gift of 2025.
A puzzle with no design? So chic. Have several sisters? They can mix and match the pieces.
Another swap opportunity (swapportunity?) mix and match the bobbles on these aesthetic openers.
Her Baggu has to SHINE.
To wear to the many holiday parties she will be invited to, of course.
A decorative ceramic collar for their flower arrangements, pair this with a flower subscription from 414loral and you're the best sibling ever.
She wants something unique, something that will make people pause. This is it. And they smell amazing.

Say less.
Even her garbage is cool.
