I want a room sized humidifier

Much of what others have said - things that spruce up life at home (a new light fixture, a new shower curtain, new oven mitts, a new vacuum) or high quality outdoor gear. I'm asking for down pants, which look ridiculous but I refuse to be shut in all winter because "it's too cold to go out".

Sheepskin slippers
I'm planning an epic gingerbread city to keep us amused over the holidays -- so fancy cooking items like a cutter and an embossed rolling pin
Outdoor gear -- a nice thermos and mugs for coffee in the park, or a packable down jacket
New pillows or bed linens
Fancy bath things -- scented bubble bath, a new robe*

*If you can get one. Robes are the new TP, I had the hardest time finding one for my teen last week

I have an Amazon wishlist. Not that anyone asks, but it has books, a new pan, yoga mat, stuff like that.

If you work from home and are on a lot of Zoom calls, I just got a couple "nice" sweatshirts from Boden. Cute sleeves, nicer patterns, but still sweatshirts, so they are super comfortable and look decent for Zoom.

All of my requests were home decorating ones. I'm getting new sconces, a garden stool, new faucet... I'm sick of sitting in my house all day so I want it spruced up

I have a foot warmer under my desk and am obsessed with it! DH teases me relentlessly for it but I love having warm feet

These are all awesome suggestions for a little self love. My list was a new hat for winter (my kids picked this one out), an electric tea kettle for my home office, and some fun earrings for zoom calls. Other ideas include: new blanket/quilt for the foot of my bed, skin care for stockings, beautiful dishes or serverware you wouldn’t buy yourself, an Obé fitness subscription (or similar), fuzzy slippers, and perhaps something tied to a hobby (nature, reading, art etc).

Organic tied-died socks
Herbal facial cream or body oil (this is something that could be made or bought)
Gift certificate to the kosher catering place that has pivoted to delivering delicious Shabbat meals during Covid (and is also beyond my budget)
Other specialty food items

I've owned this one for almost ten years now, and it's still going strong. https://smile.amazon.com/Breville-BMF600XL-Milk-Cafe-Frother/dp/B004RCNJ9Q/ref=sr_1_7?dchild=1&keywords=milk+steamer&qid=1607010145&sr=8-7

It's easy to wash because the motor is separate from the container, and the pitcher can even go in the dishwasher. I found it a bit finicky at first, but the trick is to pour in your cold milk and start it right away, because the cold will sometimes trick it into thinking it's empty and it won't start. Once I figured that out, I had no problems.

Between this and my Nespresso machine, I can have a gorgeous morning latte in my hand in under five minutes. My daughter uses it for frothy hot cocoa, too.

I had this dilemma last year. People asking for gift ideas, and I'm really just not into making a wish list - especially as an adult. I suggested an interesting lunch bag that I could take to work. And I received an amazing metal SPAM lunch box. I love it! And my family said it was fun looking at all the different options.

This is the first year I’ve come up with many ideas for myself.
Pajamas/loungewear
Robe
Nice blanket/throw
Electric tea kettle for my home office
Good kitchen knife

Some gifts I'd theoretically love -

1) Nice fancy-ish heeled booties or a gift card for a store that carries them
2) A luxurious robe and fuzzy booties to lounge
3) Splurge on a coffee maker
4) A big fancy plant that I would normally not buy
5) Maybe some jewelry
6) Some dress or something nice that you have been eying (no tights or sweatshirts, but a decent dressier dress)
7) An expensive bottle of wine or other drink of choice along with dinner delivery from a special place for an after kids' bedtime datenight
