To take the guesswork out of buying gifts this year, we at Dubuque Times 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 Gardening Gifts
1) Wooden Bird Barn
Wildlife World: Wooden Bird Barn
2) Handheld 2-in-1 Cultivator
DeWit Garden Tools: Handheld 2-in-1 Cultivator - Heart Shaped Hoe
3) Garden Scissors
These Garden Scissors from Barebones Living are made with walnut inlaid handles and feature an ambidextrous and comfortable grip. The blades are rust-resistant and can be sharpened as needed to keep you trimming, snipping, and pruning.
4) 100% Copper Rain Chain
A rain chain is an instant upgrade to a typical gutter downspout that directs rainwater to move gracefully down the channels. Based on traditional Japanese rain chains, it is handcrafted in India entirely from copper that will patina over time and is guaranteed to last a lifetime.
5) 3-Tier Portable Greenhouse
Plants get their own designated, insulated spot to grow and get some protection from too much light—and pesky animals. Portable to roll along where you want it—and the doors open up and tie back for easy access.
