Top 5 Wooden Gifts
1) Zig & Go Chain Reaction Set
Djeco: Zig & Go Roll 28 pc Chain Reaction Set
2) Amico Portable Hi-Fi Music System
Inside this classic, 70s-inspired wooden design lives a robust-yet-portable hi fidelity digital radio. Designed by sound guru and Audio Hall of Fame veteran Tom Devesto, this music system is smarter than its good looks. The Amico has eight hours of of wireless playback and weather-resistant wood exterior so you can listen outside. Customize its buttons to play music from different sources (FM, internet radio, Bluetooth, Spotify Connect, etc.), and save favorite stations/sources. It’s perfect for on-go-the tunes.
3) Large Vertical Personalized Cutting Board
This personalized cutting board with words makes for a custom gift that is also well-made and functional. Each one is handmade in the USA from maple wood and features a hand-cut expression or name. Whatever words you choose, the care put into creating each board shines through.
4) White Round Mod Block
Historical ties to the past are evident in the undulating surfaces of our hand hewn reclaimed trivet. Each trivet is made of timber from the late 1800s, using Old World tools and techniques. Used with hot dishes as well as cold, this trivet is a must have for any table. We have added a contemporary element by adding a splash of high-gloss paint to the edges. Gently clean with soap and water. Treat with wood conditioner to preserve finish.
5) GADGETdock™ Bamboo Utensil Organizer
This bamboo drawer organizer optimizes that all-important drawer space with a customizable design. Diagonal slots accommodate longer items and the unit’s length and width easily adjust—without the need for tools—to fit any drawer in the kitchen, workroom, and beyond.
