Virtual Gift Shopping Guide: Top Ideas for Online Presents

We’re back with part two of our virtual gift-shopping roundup (see part one here) and this time we headed into Pottery Barn to see what caught our eye. Below are the items we loved and why they make great gifts.

This charming rubber stamp kit, priced at $12.50, is an adorable, versatile gift. It’s great for well-traveled kids who want to document trips, or crafty adults who enjoy making custom stationery and gift tags.

For a budget-friendly option, these $3 vases are both affordable and stylish. They’d work perfectly for simple floral arrangements or for projects like the DIY reed diffuser we tried last year.

These $11 “His” and “Hers” knobs are a sweet, low-cost gift for couples sharing a bathroom or updating a dresser. Small details like these can add charm and personality without a big investment.

For anyone who loves maps or travel, the globe ornament is a thoughtful, decorative choice. It’s a little object with big sentimental value for the geography enthusiast in your life.

If you want something that feels luxurious, this $29 marble cheeseboard is a winner. The solid marble slab and included knife look pricier than they are, so it’s an elegant finishing touch for a kitchen refresh or a host gift.

Large hardcover books are one of my weaknesses. They’re bulky to move, yes, but they make stunning coffee-table accessories. Many of the ones we saw were heavily discounted—some marked from $50 down to $18—so they’re an easy way to give a high-impact gift without spending a fortune.

That wraps up the Pottery Barn portion of our virtual shopping spree. We’ll share our Urban Outfitters picks next to complete the three-part series—there were simply too many finds to fit into one post. In the meantime, we’ll be doing what you’d expect: unpacking and settling in.

Psst—We weren’t paid or perked to mention these items or stores; we just liked them and thought you might too.
