Desert Sandalwood Hand Soap: Yeehaw I'm A Sandalwood Cowboy

This luxe sandalwood hand soap with tasteful notes of iris, vetiver, and cardamom will transport your nose to the most delightful version of the American Wild West—a gorgeous frontier fantasyland where the coyotes let you pet them and the cowboys are all horsegirls. Reminds me of Santal 33. Made with olive oil and aloe vera, it cleans effectively without drying out your hands.

See's Candies: Nuts & Chews. Perfect hostess gift, or for anyone you love. These never last more than a few days in my house. Plus when you buy anything in the store they give you a sample that you get to choose yourself! No one can convince me there is a better candy in the world. Breakfast of champs on Feb 15.

Weezie Powder Bath Towels: These have always been a hit when I've personally gifted them. I recently monogrammed one with the name of a friend's beach house for a visit, but you could also do a family name, "beach cabin," or whatever fits. They're super soft and double as a great decor piece!

Leave behind some small art: I brought my water colors and painted a small painting based on the colors around the property.

(Not this exact one. I can’t find a picture of my beachy one.)
