Christmas is just around the corner, and if you waited until the last second to thing of some gifts … well, you’re not alone. Here are a few ideas for the hard-to-shop-for on your list.
Head cases
For the chrome dome on your list, nothing’s quite as cool as a limited edition All Terrain Razor from HeadBlade. The razors, ergonomically designed to gentle shave the scalp and face, have a limited edition version of the dune buggy design, courtesy of artist John Van Hamersveld. $15.
At Walgreen’s, multiple locations, and online at HeadBlade.com.
A-wreath-a (without Franklin)
A bit of cheery holiday foliage is always a good gift, whether it’s a blooming poinsettia or few tulip bulbs for winter planting, but the gift that says “welcome!” most of all is a succulent wreath for hanging on the door. They have some nice ones ranging from 7- to 10-inch versions … as well as a gift basket of tulips for the gardener in your life. Wreaths from $49.99; tulip basket $119.99.
North Haven Gardens, 7700 Northaven Road.
Now you’re cooking!
When the holidays roll around, so do family members, friends and well-wishers, and you don’t wanna spend all day in the kitchen cooking. So the new Micom rice cooker from Zojirushi makes the perfect gift — even to give to yourself. It will cook and keep warm from 5.5–10 cups of rice for making everything from rice pudding to sushi to some long-grain to slap a little gravy on when you’re feeling peckish. $192–$209.
