Cozy, Crafty & Homestead-Ready Gifts to Make Them Smile 🎁
‘Tis the season to get cozy, knit some magic, and make your homesteading friends squeal with joy. If you’re on the hunt for the perfect gift that says, “I care about you and your crafty, self-sufficient lifestyle,” you’ve landed in the right place. Let’s dive into these warm and rustic gift ideas in my holiday gift guide.
Learn to Knit Gift Set
Who do you know that would love knitting, but just hasn’t had the chance to learn? Think of that person’s favorite colors, then get ready to make them a custom, DIY gift set. Gather yarn, knitting needles, and a cute tote or box. Toss in a card with a link to my online knitting guide. Or upgrade your kit by including a copy of Liz Chandler’s Knitting Guide. This knitting book will teach them everything they need to know and include oodles of classic patterns they’ll never want to stop knitting. I’ve put together a list of suggested materials on my Learn to Knit Gift Set page; read it here.
Cozy Home Decor
A thoughtful gift can feel just like a warm hug, bringing comfort and coziness to their home. Think about soft, fluffy throw blankets for curling up on the couch, gentle lighting like a pretty lamp or string lights to create a calming glow, or something special to help them enjoy their favorite warm drink; maybe a cute mug, a coffee sampler, or a new tea kettle. These little touches can add warmth and make their space feel even more inviting. Browse my list of extra-cozy home goods on Amazon to find the perfect gift.
Homestead Helper
Got a friend who dreams of raising chickens and growing all their own veggies? Help them create the homestead of their dreams with some practical goodies: a really nice drill, a sturdy toolbox, or some cool gardening gloves. Or help them automate their lifestyle with chicken coop doors that open on their own or machines that feed the animals. Find my holiday gift guide of homesteading goodies on Amazon.
DIY Craft Kits
Sure, you could buy them a candle or a bar of soap—but why not give them a whole kit so they can make their own? A candle-making kit, soap-making set, or cheese-making supplies will keep them busy and their home smelling like a rustic dream. (Bonus: You might even get some homemade goodies as a thank-you!)

Cooking Supplies for the Homestead Chef
Give your favorite home cook a reason to whip up something delicious. Try gifts that make their kitchen feel like a cozy, rustic paradise. They’d be thrilled to get a new cast iron skillet, a fancy Dutch oven, or even some cute spatulas and spoons. Find my favorite kitchen essentials, perfect for gifting this holiday on my Amazon list.
