Top 5 Gifts Under $500
1) Eclipse Minimalist Watch
The ZIIIRO Eclipse watch takes a bold approach to telling time. The standout watch face forgoes numbers and the typical hands, and instead uses black and white to mark the passing of time. A stainless steel casing and strap, along with water-resistant quartz movement, make this head-turning timepiece a substantially-built one, too.
2) Kitchen SinkShroom
Keep drains clog-free with this flexible, stainless steel kitchen sink strainer without slowing the flow of water. The basket collects food particles and fits nearly any kitchen sink drain.
3) Custom Map Clock with Easel
A custom map clock crafted from marble keeps the memory of a special place—a first home, stand-out vacation, or wedding—alive while it keeps the time. Turkish marble is tumbled to make it one-of-a-kind, and a location from anywhere in the United States and the nine square mile-surrounding area are featured on the map. A compass rose will mark the exact spot and the map’s legend can be customized, too. Cast iron easel included. Made in Rhode Island.
4) New Home Mason Jar Candle
A hand-poured New Home Mason Jar Candle is a thoughtful way to celebrate a new space. It’s Made in the USA with soy wax and a cotton wick that make for cleaner and longer burn time—around 40 hours. A blend of essential oils gives this candle a light, welcoming scent that won’t distract from the heartfelt message it bears.
5) Cubby Tablet Pillow
Flippy: Cubby Tablet Pillow - Super Red
