To take the guesswork out of buying gifts this year, we at Roanoke Sun asked our friends at The Grommet for their latest and greatest practical gift suggestions for 2021.
These guides are geared towards specific interests. You’ll be able to find something for even the toughest person on your Christmas shopping list.
Top 5 Gifts Under $500
1) Stainless Steel Smoker Box
You don’t need an expensive smoker to get all that flavor in your grilled meats. Just fill this heavy-duty, smoker box with wood chips and place it over the flames. The chips release smoke through the holes and infuse the great taste of real smoked barbecue—no matter what kind of grill you cook on.
2) Snow Removal Blade
Snowdozer: Snow Removal Blade
3) Round Lacquer Serving Tray - Lakeside
This round serving tray is part piece of art, part table setting. Each is adorned with original works of art then sealed with a high-gloss finish that’s moisture-, alcohol-, and heat-resistant. Concealed side slot handles make it a cinch to carry from the kitchen to the table or patio.
4) Vintage Silver Spoon Marker - Family
Vintage spoons are handcrafted into sweet and meaningful markers that make the perfect addition to a gift or a garden. From “You Are My Sunshine” to “Happy Birthday” (and eight other phrases in between), this hand-stamped spoon truly makes for a one-of-a-kind finishing touch.
5) Djubi Classic Slingshot Catch Game
Djubi (joo-bee) is the slingshot toss game that makes classic catch seem underwhelming. Each racket has a deep net for catching and a hook on top to launch the included foam balls. Slip a ball’s latex loop over the hook then pull, point, and release to launch it up to 100 feet. Get your sling on at the park, pool, or beach.
