2024 Holiday
Gift Guide

’Tis the season of gift-giving! Which is why we created the ultimate holiday gift guide featuring BEST holiday gifts for everyone on your list this year! 

Shopping for holiday gifts can be overwhelming — there are so many options, so many people to shop for, and even though you have all year to prepare for it, it always seems to sneak up on you!

That’s why curated gift sets are a great gift idea for the holidays! At Teak & Twine, our gifts are thoughtfully designed with unique products that your recipients will ACTUALLY like. From tasty treats, to useful tools, to keepsakes that will be cherished for years to come, each gift is designed to create a memorable gifting experience. Not to mention, we offer custom branded packaging suites, so you can have festive holiday gifts designed for your brand!

While the weather outside may be frightful, the shopping is oh-so-delightful! So without further ado, here’s the 2023 Teak & Twine Holiday Gift Guide!

Gifts for The Partygoer

For the folks who are always going somewhere and doing something! Their social calendars are always full, and there’s NEVER a dull moment when you’re with them. These social butterflies love going out on the town, having fun, and being the center of attention.

Our top picks for The Partygoer include The Game Night, which is all about bringing the fun! With a bright, bold color palette, tasty treats, and games galore, this is perfect for the friend who never goes unnoticed!

Another excellent choice is The Toast — this is one of our most popular corporate gift boxes all year round, but ESPECIALLY during the holidays. It’s basically a party in box!

If you’re looking for something with a smaller price point but BIG style, The Winter Cheer is always a good idea!

Gifts for The Homebody

For the person who only leaves the house if they absolutely have to. These folks love creature comforts, indulging in self care, and are fans of all things cozy. You likely won’t see them all winter long because they have gone into hibernation until further notice.

Our top picks for The Homebody include The Harvest, which is packed full of products perfect for the coziest seasons!

For a WOW-worthy gift, opt for The Retreat — it’s beautiful and the perfect way to treat your recipient to a spa day in the comfort of their own home.

Another wonderful option is The New Home, which is a timeless gift featuring a variety of home essentials, like handcrafted soap by Saipua and a tobacco-vanilla custom logo candle by Gold + Ivy.

Gifts for The Sweet Tooth

For the person whose drug of choice happens to be sugar! While their dentist may hope they’ll change their ways, the holidays certainly isn’t the time to hold back…

Indulge your sugar-loving friends this holiday with a sweet gift box like The S’Mores, featuring all the essentials for the perfect bonfire night. Don’t forget to include a branded mug so your gift recipients can sip their hot cocoa in style.

Another extra-sweet option is The Holiday, which has some of our favorite treats like Cinnamon Caramel by Fat Toad Farm and Hot Cocoa Mix from Public Goods.

And for the sweet tooth who also appreciates good style, opt for The Wreath, one of our brand new designs this year that has been flying off the shelves!

Gifts for The Host

For the folks who are brave enough to welcome us into their homes! On behalf of those of us who could never get our houses in order to host a holiday party, I would like to thank all hosts everywhere for volunteering their homes as tribute. I promise I have absolutely no idea who spilled red wine on your new white couch (which is SO comfortable, by the way!)

For The Host (with the most!), our top picks include The New Home, because it makes for the perfect host/hostess gift with its classic look and thoughtful home essentials.

Another current favorite is The Snowed In — with icy blue hues and alpine vibes, this winter gift is absolutely stunning IRL and is sure to impress this holiday season.

You also can’t go wrong with a thank you gift box. It’s simple, sweet, and the perfect way to thank any host for welcoming you to their home.

Gifts for The Chef

For the ones who are always trying out new recipes, watching Chef’s Table on Netflix, and insist on being called “chef” while in the kitchen. Whether you know one or you are one, we all know how wonderful it is to have a good cook chef around!

Our top picks for The Chef include The Gourmet, which is all about bold flavors paired with BIG style. With elegant kitchen accessories like a wooden cutting board and cooking essentials like Wonder Valley organic olive oil and a chili spice blend by Diaspora Co., this gift is *chef’s kiss*!

Another great chef-approved gift is The Ramen, which is packed with the best umami flavors (like chili crunch by Momofuku) for the perfect ramen night at home.

For a super sleek vibe, opt for The Tuxedo — this luxury corporate gift includes gourmet goods like espresso-infused honey and Thomas Keller chocolate, making it a killer gift for any aspiring chef who has (Michelin) stars in their eyes.

Pro tip: Gourmet gift boxes make for great premium gifts for clients and VIPs during the holidays.

Gifts for The Cocktail Lover

For the folks who LOVE a good cocktail! Whether they’re drinking them, making them, or talking about them, cocktails are their love language. These mixologists are always a welcome presence everywhere they go — without them, who would make everyone’s drinks at social gatherings?!

One of our top corporate gift ideas for cocktail lovers is The Speakeasy! No surprises here, this is a great gift for any cocktail connoisseur — deck out their bar cart with a rose gold shaker and matching jigger, a deck of playing cards, plus fun cocktail garnishes and mixes, this gift has it ALL!

For the cocktail lover who is more of a French 75 or Negroni Sbagliato type, check out The Cheers! This bubbly gift is full of fun with sparkling tea by TOST, champagne-infused popcorn by Eatable, champagne gummies by Sugarfina, and gorgeous handmade custom coasters by Esselle. The Cheers is sure to dazzle this holiday season!
