To take the guesswork out of buying gifts this year, we at Rock Island Today 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 Christmas Gifts
1) Trainer Dog Backpack Carrier
K9 Sport Sack®: Trainer Dog Backpack Carrier - Coral - Extra Small
2) Brass Pocket Sundial
A brass pocket sundial is both a small work of art and a unique way to tell the time. Crafted in Austria, the sundial works anywhere on Earth and neatly folds up when not in use. It’s a practical way to check the time and an ornamental piece that looks lovely on display.
3) Intermediate Wooden Model Building Kit
UGEARS intermediate model kits make building a fun and engaging hands-on experience. These kits are geared towards older kids and adults looking for a more complex project. Each model is pieced together from flat, unfinished, laser-cut plywood parts that don’t need tools or glue to be assembled. The finished product has parts that move, too, to put these models in motion.
4) Eclipse Minimalist Watch
The ZIIIRO Eclipse watch takes a bold approach to telling time. The standout watch face forgoes numbers and the typical hands, and instead uses black and white to mark the passing of time. A stainless steel casing and strap, along with water-resistant quartz movement, make this head-turning timepiece a substantially-built one, too.
5) Framed Magnetic Travel Map
Wow Magnetic Maps: Framed Magnetic Travel Map - USA
