ALEJANDRA.TV IS NOW ORGANIZE & FLOW

Happy Holidays! The holidays are just a few weeks away but in case you still have shopping left, I’ve put together a list of my 18 favorite “organizing” gift ideas. Now, I know not everyone wants organizing products for Christmas (after all, not everyone loves to organize like I do), however, a lot of the below products are more “gadget-y” or things that make you say “why I didn’t I think of that?!”.

Anyway, below are 20 unique gift ideas I thought would make cool gifts that people would actually use (and not sit around as clutter)!

Wishing you and yours a happy holiday!
 

For Your Favorite Chefs:

#1 – Instant Coasters For Wine Glasses


This is a great gift for a hostess. They’re color-coded rubber coasters and drink markers you put on the wine glass before handing out wine glasses (that way you don’t have to politely ask your guest to use a coaster since you’ve already attached a coaster 🙂 It’s also obvious which glass is yours so no germ sharing for your guests!

#2 – Really, Reallllly Magnetic Measuring Spoons

Magnetic Spoons
I discovered these last year at The Container Store when I asked one of the employees what’s your favorite thing in the store. These are so cool- they’re magnetic measuring spoons (and when I say they’re magnetic, they have really realllllllly strong magnets attached (not the the cheap kind). Any chef would appreciate this gift!

#3 – Rubber Mat To Prevent Bottles From Rolling

Can & Bottle Organizer
I have two of these in my very own fridge. It’s a mat that prevents bottles from rolling when stored horizontally in the refrigerator. It also prevents bottles from making the annoying “clicking” sound when they touch other bottles, lol.

#4 – Measure Conversion Magnet


I have this on my fridge and I still use it pretty much every time I cook or bake. Thanks to this magnet that’s been on my fridge for years, I finally now have memorized that there are 3 tsp in 1 tbsp! However, I still can’t remember how many tbsp in 1 cup! Anyway, this thing is a lifesaver and makes a great gift!

#5 – Visual Kitchen Drawer Organizer (6 colors)


I recently discovered this product and thought this was the coolest thing ever. It’s a rubber mat with adjustable dividers that holds things in place such as kitchen utensils, makeup, office supplies, tools, etc. It comes in 6 different colors. It’s a cool product for any drawer that has small items.

For Your Gadget Lovers & Co-Workers:

#6 – How To Prevent Cables From Falling


Ed gave me these last year in my stocking. They kind of look like candy but they’re adhesive cable drops you place on your desk or any piece of furniture to prevent cords from falling back. A fun gadget to give someone who appreciates little life hackers!

#7 – Pulls Gunk Out Of Keyboards & Gadgets

Gadget Cleaning Putty
Your cell phone keyboard and computer keyboard are probably dirtier than you think. This is a gel/putty you rub on your keyboard to remove dust and dirt. It also has a cleaning compound (that smells nice) to remove bacteria from crevices.

#8 – Remove Embarrassing Dust On Your Screen

fuzzy glove
Have you ever opened your laptop or restarted your computer in front of another person and were embarrassed by the dust on the “black screen?” It’s hard to see dust on the monitor when the computer is already on, however, when its off, the dust is so visible! Anyway, this little fuzzy duster does the trick when you swipe it across your keyboard and monitor. I have the yellow one and it sits inside my desk drawer.

#9 – A Portable Outlet (Mini-Sized)

Portable Travel Outlet
Have you ever seen a mini-sized power outlet? I haven’t… until now. This is supposed to be for the frequent traveler, however, I say its not only perfect for “on the go,” but also small offices, bathrooms, or any small nook where a “normal-sized” power strip wouldn’t fit.

For Anyone That Needs To Get Organized:

#10 – A Timer To Keep People Focused


I’ve talked about this timer time after time (no pun intended). I use timers for everything to manage my time (I too get side tracked sometimes, so keeping a small timer next to me (especially on my desk) is a great way to stay focused and on track. This is by far my favorite timer since its visual and made for us creative folks who must “see” things to understand 🙂

#11 – Best Folding Tool (Maximizes Drawer Space!)


If you’ve ever wondered how retail stores get the “perfect” fold in shirts and pants, look no further. The secret is folding with the “Flip & Fold.” Not only do they make a “normal” size, but they make a small size for folding kiddie clothes. This is the exact folding too I use for all of Ed’s t-shirts.

#12 – Best Organizing Magazine With New Ideas


This is my favorite organizing magazine. It’s filled with unique ideas from organizing experts around the world and latest organizing products and gadgets. Unlike other organizing magazines, you can opt for the “digital” version instead of physical which clearly takes up less space 🙂 I’m a subscriber of the magazine and still get all giddy every time I receive it each season. This gift is also free to ship for long-distance friends and family.

#13 – Container Store e-Gift Card (Last Minute Gift)


If you’ve waited (or plan to wait) until the last minute to do your holiday shopping and need a “quick” gift idea, The Container Store offers holiday e-gift cards that you can immediately print and wrap. Even if the recipient doesn’t live near a The Container Store, they ship online orders anywhere in the US.

For Her:

#14 – Add A Safety Siren & Whistle To A Keychain


Ed discovered this gadget and I think he’s secretly planning to put this in my stocking this year! It’s a key chain with an extremely loud siren, a whistle, and a light to keep you safe when your driving and/or walking to your car at night or in a parking garage.

For Him:

#15 – A Key That’s 6-in-1 Tools


This is cool for the Mr. Fix-It in the family. It’s a “key” that fits on his key ring that’s actually 6 commonly used tools in one. The coolest thing is that it looks like a key. This is perfect as a stocking stuffer or a small gift topper on another present.

#16 – Instantly Remove Your Address From Envelopes

Identity Ink Roller
This is so cool – it’s a rolling stamp that masks your address before tossing or recycling envelopes from the mail. The stamp rolls random letters and numbers in oily ink so you can’t read the sensitive information underneath. When a shredder isn’t always available (or if you hate shredding and love to roll instead!), this is the next best thing. I have this and it’s just fun to roll (it rolls realllllly smoothly) while safeguarding your private info!

#17 – De-Clutter His Belts

Belt Organizer
Are all his belts in a cluttered mess? This belt hanger will keep them neatly hung up while adding a touch of cedar to his closet.

For The Mommies:

#18 – How To Make LEGOs® Easy To Clean Up


I’m featuring this product in one of my upcoming videos! It’s a cool drawstring mat that you lay down on the floor for when your kids are playing with Lego® bricks, puzzles, or any toy with small pieces. The coolest thing about it is how you just swoop the bag up when you’re done playing and you’ve instantly cleaned up! Clean-up can actually be fun with this activity mat. Perfect for kids who are 6+.
