It’s time for our Vermont Mom favorite Vermont gifts of 2021! We’ve got a fantastic series coming your way.
First to drop is, of course, our picks for ladies – or for anyone who loves Vermont-made gifts!
To start, Vermont Mom is excited to announce our very own collection of Vermont gifts, accessories, and t-shirts!
Our products are designed with Vermont families in mind. Our signature “Raise Them Kind” v-neck is the perfect gift for any mom. But be sure to take a look at everything!
Since shopping for gifts can be overwhelming, we’ve done the legwork for you. We have divided our selections into different categories to make shopping a little easier.
The Classics
What mom doesn’t want to receive a warm, cozy gift over the holidays? Well, the infinity shawl from Vermont Handwoven is just the thing. This shawl is made right here in Vermont and comes in loads of gorgeous colors – I am a fan of the rich red!
If you need something that goes perfectly with everything, take a look at the bag that everyone needs in their collection, the Otti from Slate Home. She’ll be sure to smile opening these for sure!
Now onto something shiny – the Zen Brass Hoops from Stormy Nite Designs are the perfect addition to this classic outfit.
These are the sort of Vermont gifts she’ll wear and treasure forever.
For the Home
Everyone wants to know other moms’ must-haves, right? Mine is, without a doubt, Lunaroma’s Healing Salve. This needs to be a fixture in your medicine cabinet. I put it on everything from cracked skin on my hands, to cuts and scrapes, to mosquito bites. The best use of the Lunaroma Healing Salve though is that ewwy red chapped area that kids get around their mouth in the winter. I put a tad of this on the chapped areas before bed, and they’re gone the next day!
Another product I love is the National Parks Soaps set from Vermont’s own Ursa Major. Also – highlighted on Hoda and Jenna! Seriously, these each are made from natural elements found in each park and smell amazing!
My last selection for the home is the vase to end all vases, from Miranda Thomas Pottery. There are so many beautiful pieces of pottery, and my favorite is the large beaker from her cream-carved collection with a beautiful poppy. This is certainly a gift that will stand the test of time. I promise these are gifts that fit perfectly in any home.
We make a lot of truly fantastic products in Vermont, don’t we?
Kitchen Must-haves
Tasty treats nestled in a box… opening this gift will surely warm any heart. First, and full disclosure we cannot promise that shipping will be immediate, the Boyden Beef Slow Cooker Package. Yum, and yes, please! This local favorite is sold through the always outstanding Vermont Country Store!
Add to the Vermont Kitchen Must-haves our favorite trio of Butterfly Bakery mustards. These are perfection: Maple Siracha, Heady Topper, and VT Jalapeno. All are available at a Vermont Mom favorite, the Stowe Mercantile.
A sweet addition to our list and the perfect salty-sweet combo is the Maple Pecan Bacon Brittle from Bucks County Brittle and More. We love it, and at that price, we won’t judge if you end up gifting yourself a few bags.
Now, let’s wash it all down with some bubbly from Groennfeld Heggir Mead. This mead is made with raw wildflower honey and sour cherry. It is so delicious.
Hot-Tip: When you find a perfect Vermont gift, get more than one!
Now for the gift that she won’t see coming
Unique. Surprising. Adorable. All things a perfect gift should be, enter the Pleasant Ranch birdhouse collection. These are truly special and anyone would smile every time they look at them. Our choice is the Indio. The shapes, colors, and designs of these birdhouses make us happy. Shoot. We would like to coin a new term: bird HOMES. That’s how we feel about these birdhouses.
Plus, a few more gifts: Vermont Homesick candles, anything from Vermont Wood Studios and, the Evergreen Collection from Simon Pearce. These are all classic Vermont gifts anyone would love, and by shopping locally, you are helping to support our fellow Vermonters.
If you’re looking for the perfect Vermont gift for someone special, look no further. And please stay tuned- we’ve got several installments of Vermont Mom’s favorite Vermont gifts for differing audiences coming right up!
