THE COZIEST YOGA PANTS EVER

If you are looking for yoga pants you can live in—look no further! These are the most comfortable I’ve ever found and they are not the least bit see-through. They make the perfect work-from-home outfit with multiple colors—in both full-length and capri styles—to choose from!

MY ALL TIME FAVORITE HIGHLIGHTERS

I love these highlighters so much I bought a set for all of our management team last year. They are dual-sided with both wide and fine tip ends. And best of all, they don’t bleed through Bible pages!

LONG HAIR? YOU NEED THIS CURLING IRON!

The barrel of this curling iron is extra long—allowing you to curl long hair MUCH faster! It’s also got a heat regulator, so you can set it to the exact temperature you want. My hair is past the middle of my back, so this curling iron saves me a lot of time and is the best I’ve ever found for long hair.

MY FAVORITE CHILDREN’S BIBLE

My daughter truly loves reading her Bible, which was exactly what I hoped for when I bought it. There is an early reader version (grades 3-4, NIrV) as well as one for older readers (grades 4-6, NIV). They have versions geared toward boys as well. I love the NIrV for little ones. There is so much engaging content throughout this Bible that it really does make reading God’s Word an exciting adventure for kids. And while you’re at it—these Decorative Bible Tabs are the perfect companion for the girls’ version.

THE BEST APPLIANCE I’VE EVER OWNED

This toaster/conventional/convection oven/air fryer combination is used every single day at the Warner house. I have never used an appliance more than I use this one! If you are new to the world of air fryers—this is a great one to dive in with since it’s 4 in one and doesn’t require a separate space on your countertop. It air fries and reheats to crispy perfection, and if anything went wrong with it, we would replace it within a day. Well worth the investment!

NO MORE CLEANSERS OR WIPES!

I was gifted this magical cloth for Mother’s Day one year, and I’ve asked for another every year since. I’ve never had anything remove make-up (particularly dark liner and waterproof mascara) quite like this, and I can’t recommend it enough. It comes in a variety of colors, is ridiculously soft, and washes up beautifully! No product needed either—just water. One side is designed with short fibers to remove make-up and the flip side gently exfoliates. Try this—and I promise you’ll be amazed!

COMFIEST FLIP FLOPS EVER

Hands-down the only flip flops I’ll buy now are these amazingly comfortable yoga mat flops! I love to walk, so even if I’m not laced-up for a hike or exercise outing, I always like to have something on my feet that can go the distance. These offer such great support, aren’t flashy but still pass for nice casual wear, and come in a variety of (super soft!) strap colors. Initially I was hesitant to pay a little more for these, but they hold up so well and I’ll happily buy them again and again!

VINTAGE LEATHER BEAUTY

I’ve owned this bag for several years now and it has held up beautifully through travel, endless coffee shops, outdoor outings, and even not-so-careful kiddos. I love the look and feel of the wide straps and the gorgeous vintage leather and canvas. It has the perfect amount of nooks and pockets for your laptop and all the gear you need to work on-the-go. This must go on your wish-list!

UNLIMITED DO-OVERS… IN COLOR! 

I was introduced to these pens while on a retreat. We were in the art room and I was marveling at my friend’s beautiful work… and in pen! She let me try them and shared the link, and I had them shipping home even before I arrived back. While I don’t whip out pen-sketch masterpieces, I LOVE getting to keep a colorful family calendar, personal planner, and Bible journal with the opportunity to erase. Beautiful pens that erase so cleanly is a dream for this not-so-perfect perfectionist!

FUN FAMILY LOGIC GAME

Our family loves to play card and board games together. But often it’s hard to find one they love, that my husband and I can also enjoy playing over and over again. With every card matching in exactly one way, this delightful card game has several adaptations. Although we tend to challenge ourselves with the same logic version. My girls love the fun quirky animals. And we enjoy a game that all can play but still allows for a bit of reasoning.

THE PERFECT PLACE FOR YOUR DRINK

We don’t have the space in our living room for end tables. Subsequently we had no place to set down our drinks while watching our shows or relaxing on the couch. So many beverages were spilled on our couch and carpet. But finally, I found these couch coasters. Free hands and no more drink spills. They are the perfect solution!

CELEBRATING EVERY SEASON

I absolutely love changing out my decor every season. Finding a different wreath for our front door for each new holiday is so fun. But finding a way to store all these wreaths—not so fun! When I found this wreath with interchangeable pieces for the holidays, I was honestly giddy. Do I look forward to refreshing it every season? Yes, yes I do! And you will too!

MONEY SAFE FOR KIDS

Traditional piggy banks are cute. But when we found these money safes we knew our kids would love them—and they do! Kids get to choose their own secret password to keep their money safe, which of course, they think is the best! Their favorite part is putting the bills in because the safe eats them like a vending machine. Both my older kids have gotten one of these as a gift. They have been a huge hit around here!

A DELIGHTFUL WAY TO RELAX

Adult coloring books have become quite popular over the past few years. And I have been right on that bandwagon. It is the perfect way to unwind, clear your mind, and relax! This-color-by number is my favorite! You can use any medium you like to color in the pages. But these markers are my tool of choice!

THE BEST PURCHASE I HAVE EVER MADE!

Where I live in Arizona, we go months without being able to play outside and that can be tough for our park-loving kiddos. When I found this EZ Play Jungle Gym for inside the house I asked the grandparents, aunts, and uncles to chip in to surprise our kids. Even better, it can fold up against the wall. But our kids practically live on it so we never take it down. It is a little pricey but worth every single penny!

A BEAUTY TIMESAVER! 

As a busy mom of two, I don’t have an abundance of time to spend on my morning makeup routine. So I was thrilled when I discovered this handy little multistick for both lips and cheeks from Ilia Beauty. I’ve found it the perfect way to save time while still leaving the house feeling (somewhat) put together. Plus it’s small enough to throw in my bag when I’m on the go! The company is also an advocate for clean, cruelty-free beauty. I’ve yet to find one of their products I don’t love.

THE WORLD’S COZIEST THROW BLANKET

My husband bought me this throw blanket for my birthday. Almost a year later and I am still obsessed with it. Not only does it add a chic and stylish touch to our living room. It’s also the comfiest, coziest blanket I have ever owned. Whether I’m snuggling with the family, watching a movie, or catching up on some reading time, it has become an everyday home accessory I’m not sure I could live without.

KIDS’ DEVOTIONAL WITH A DIFFERENCE

I bought this devotional to appeal to my curious, fact-loving 6-year-old—and it didn’t disappoint. Written by Louie Giglio, “Indescribable: 100 Devotions About God and Science” is a collection of faith-based devotions. Each explores topics such as space, earth, animals and people, and also includes fascinating facts, colorful illustrations, activity ideas, and prayers. I have found it such a great resource to talk about our awesome God and the wonder of His creation with my daughter.

FOR THE COFFEE LOVERS

When my husband and I got married, I learned very quickly that coffee was going to become a significant part of our morning routine. His caffeine-related standards are high. And now, after over a decade of learning his ways and preferences—so are mine! One of our most valuable purchases in this area has been this sleek little kitchen top coffee grinder from Baratza. We use it every single morning, and I think we’d be a little lost—or at the very least a little grumpy—without it in our lives.

ENCOURAGING THE WANDERLUST

After several years planning hypothetical vacations, it seems like the world is finally opening back up. And we could not be more excited! While we wait to board those long awaited flights to see family, this scratch-off world map has been just the thing to inspire our children with our love of travel. We have enjoyed finding the different continents, countries and states on the map. And the kids have had a blast scratching off the places they have visited to reveal the vibrant colors underneath.

THE BEST PASTA YOU’LL EVER MAKE

My husband and I started making homemade pasta a few years ago, and I don’t think we’ll ever go back to store-bought pasta now. If you have a Kitchen Aid, these pasta-maker attachments make it super easy to mix the dough, flatten it, and cut it into spaghetti or fettuccine noodles. It honestly doesn’t take much longer than boiling a box of store-bought noodles, but it is so much tastier! We love making pasta when we have friends over; it’s such a fun pre-dinner activity, and the food is always amazing!

YOUR FEET WILL THANK YOU

I quite literally wear these slippers every day. They have a memory foam base, a hard sole, and are fuzzy all around, making them so cozy, especially for the fall and winter months (although I wear them year-round!). One of my favorite moments of my day is taking off my shoes when I get home and slipping into these slippers.

YOUR NEW FAVORITE BOOTS (UNDER $35!)

These rain-proof ankle boots have become my go-to fall shoe! I have them in dark brown, and if anything ever happens to them, I will buy them again in a heartbeat. The best part is I can wear them with both dresses and pants; on rainy days and cold days. I can easily slip them on and off (making them perfect for early morning walks with my pup). They have held up for two years so far, and I have a feeling they’ll last me through quite a few more.

MAKES BRUSHING WET HAIR A BREEZE

All my life, one of my least favorite things has been brushing my hair after a shower. That might sound dramatic, but my long, thick hair has always been difficult to brush, and detangling it would often leave me in tears. I wish I’d had a brush like this growing up! To be honest, I don’t know what the magic is about this particular one, but it painlessly and quickly detangles my thick hair after a shower. If you have kiddos who cry through after-bathtime hair brushing you have to try this. And buy one for yourself too!

CUTE AND GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT!

I’m always trying to think of ways to cut down on my ecological footprint, and I’ve found there are so many easy ways to do that! Beeswax food wraps, reusable coffee filters, and silicone ziplocs make it easy to do this in the kitchen. But my favorite everyday items are my reusable mesh shopping bags. They’re light and compactable enough to stuff in my purse, yet they are stretchy and strong enough to hold SO much. I can use them for grocery shopping, holding snacks for traveling, or carrying items to the beach!

FUN WAY TO INVEST IN YOUR RELATIONSHIP

These question cards are easy to take with you to date night or on a road trip, but can also create intentional, fun interaction during a night at home. They initiate hours of meaningful conversation all while helping you get to know your spouse better—what more could you ask for from a deck of cards?

CONSUMED BY SWEEPING?

I love my Golden Retriever, but she sheds hair like it’s her job. To maintain my sanity, I searched for the perfect robot vacuum. This one is reasonably priced and has lessened my daily sweeping significantly. There is something so satisfying about finishing a day’s work while the house is being cleaned by someone(thing) other than you.

AN OUTDOOR PLAYDATE/PICNIC MUST-HAVE

As a new mom, I’ve spent more time on the ground than I ever thought possible—in the house, on the grass, on the concrete, you name it. After ruining one too many outfits (both mine and my daughter’s), I decided to purchase a sturdy picnic blanket. This one is not only easy to tote around with you in its carrying case, it’s also large, lightweight, and waterproof!

THE PERFECT HANGING SWING FOR YOUR LITTLES

My daughter loves to swing, so I made it my mission to find her the perfect swing for our house. This swing is easy to install, comfortable for kids of various sizes, and comes in simple colors that will match with any decor. The best part is it’s machine washable!

TRIM YOUR BABY’S NAILS WITHOUT FEAR

My daughter absolutely hated it when I tried to cut her nails. After several failed attempts at clipping her nails, a friend recommended this electric alternative. This lifesaver has several speeds and heads to choose from, and an LED light so you can see what you’re doing in the dark. Once you’re done with the baby, you can treat yourself to a post-bedtime mani pedi, too. Win-win!

We hope this list of 30 of our favorite Amazon gifts for women has sparked some inspiration for you as you consider Christmas gifts this holiday season!

    I love reading about gift ideas, but it might help to provide links. There are no pictures or links to actually purchase the items. Unless I’m missing something?

    Even with my ad blocker removed for the site, I couldn’t get the pictures or links to show up. It might be helpful to put the name of the product or company in the description to help me be able to look them up on our own. Just a thought!
