Maybe you just got the joyous news that extended family is coming for the holidays—tomorrow. Or maybe your search for just-the-perfect-thing is starting to feel like procrastination. Either way, we’re here with last-minute gift ideas that feel mindfully sourced, carefully selected and offered with love. Because—and we mean it from the bottom of our collective heart—they truly are.

The bow on top: all gifts ship free via UPS. Simply place your order and allow five business days for arrival or expedite shipping to our 2-day service. And of course, you can deliver instant gratification through a digital Room & Board gift card—or swing by one of our locations on your way to the gift exchange and we’ll pop one into our gift packaging.

For the player: Portage Cribbage Board 

Ours is the one game board that stays on the table in-between play thanks to artisan hand-painted designs. They’ll thank you for the décor touch and the good times; allow for a quick round of cribbage in the gift-opening schedule.

For the chef de cuisine: Elliott Bowls

Carved from a single piece of fine-grain hardwood, you can choose from reclaimed walnut, honey locust or red oak, giving that loved one a versatile bowl for salads, small treasures or popcorn for an extra-glam movie night.

For the busy bee: Organic Bath Co. Body Butter Discovery Set 

Everyone deserves a little R&R, and with this four-pack of organic and ethically sourced moisturizers, you can lavish ultra-moisturizing body butter on with a clean conscience, thanks to organic, ethical ingredient sourcing.

For the minimalist: Holton Taper Candle Holders 

Smoothly turned for a modern twist on classic candlesticks, these holders are made of reclaimed urban wood in Detroit—ideal for design aficionados and fans of artisan-made craftsmanship.

For the not-so-secret Santa: Bough Holiday Trees 

It’s impossible not to be immediately charmed by these mod holiday touches—and in fact the simple, streamlined design makes them a year-round delight. Made of sustainable salvaged wood; just the right size to tuck amongst other decor.

For the homebody: Audrey Wool Throw

Made in England at one of the oldest fabric mills in the world, using only pure wool yarn also made onsite. The Yorkshire weavers deliver these blankets directly to us to spread the joy (and warmth) for generations to come.
