I've never been bought pajamas for Christmas (since I was teeny) but now I really like the idea as I like to wear warm, loungy clothes during the winter evenings.
New favorite word: Explurgent ;) Great gift ideas, Jen!
mskathleend LOL explurgent. I am a strange one, I know ;)
Fabulous ideas ! I wouldn't have thought of the food of the month gift. I have so many family members that would love gifts like that. Thank you ! Thank you !
Wonderful picks Jen! I always love watching these, and so looking forward to your stocking stuffer guide! That robe sounds so decadent!!
I love your videos Jen! Thank you for doing what you do. I always look forward to your opinions and since my family is far away it's so nice to get a glimpse into family time!!
Thanks Jen :) I already ordered the travel battery charger for myself and my husband and I LOVE the size of it and the fact that you don't need a cord :) I also ordered Toddy Gear cloths for myself and to give as gifts and they are great as well. ((I also ordered the ziplock bags for jewelry storage that you recommended to me on another thread a few weeks ago - thanks for being awesome!)
Bryana Nice picks!
I've been enjoying your suggestions, thank you! I got my husband a few of your suggestions from the men's gift guide, which was exciting because he's impossible to buy for. :)
***** Nice! Glad I could help inspire you :)
"Anybody can wear whatever color watch THEY want." !! Love you Jen! :)
Another informative video, thanks Jen...looking forward to your stocking stuffer video. An idea for next year is a detailed tea video. I'm new to the tea world and would love information from you on the different types and any other info you can share.Thank you Jen!
Beth C I just posted a tea video on thebusybeebuzz @watch?v=NekcdBsy1A0
I was struggling to find a gift for my mom, but thus video gave me some GREAT ideas, i think she will be getting that robe! Thanks so much, i just love your gift guide videos!!
I've been using my fitbit flex this year and I really love it. $100....love the dashboard program for windows, or android...love love love it. Great pics!
Lisa Gage I've been looking at that for Don...he's been on a fitness kick lately :)
It's great! Highly recommend it.
thank you for this fantastic video!
Really enjoyed watching it.
A lovely gift guide, the pajamas are so cute!
Everything is so nice.Lovely ideas for Christmas gifts!
Jen, great ideas! I am obsessed with your class and style!
A splurge-y gift that I would love is the Breville one-touch tea maker. Hot tea waiting for you when you wake up! What could be better? Although hot chocolate is also delicious.
Another great video. Great ideas! I've had my eye on that Pottery Barn Throw and think I may splurge on it for myself!
Thank you for all of your gift suggestion videos. You have thoughtful and exquisite taste!
Hey Jen, thank you for sharing your pics!! Love your necklace by the way!! So pretty!
Hi Jen. Another great video. I love how you are unapologetic regarding the price of items you suggest. Christmas is the time to be extravagant if possible. :) You have really become so confident over the last few years. Great job and keep marching to you own drummer. Don't apologize for the great life you live. :)
Love your bow necklace, Jennifer! :)
Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!! You saved me sooooo much money with the Victoria's Secret specials. Especially the free slippers part, which I never would have known if you hadn't shared. I also got free shipping and an extra $20.00 off since I spent over a certain amount. Love your great advice- keep up the great vlogs- I love all of them!!!!!
Loved so many of these products! Should have watched it yesterday!
I laughed so hard when you were talking about Don and the headphones! It reminded me so much of me and my husband. My husband is super hard to buy gifts for. He recently started traveling for work, so the headphones would be a perfect gift for him. Thank you for the idea!
Brilliant gift guide Jen :)
So nice to see a variety of different gifts that aren't lotions and potions ;) I always love getting a new pair of pjs for Christmas.
Jen just loved your picks, on your advice I went container store for wrapping paper and OMG I ended up spending hours there and learning how to make a bow so fun! Just love watching you and Don...& promise we won't tell him what's in your picks( LOL)🙋💕
Thank you for this video. I will be ordering the Tea Tumbler very soon. I just started using loose tea and the tumbler will be a great addition to my collection. Also, I had a dilemma on what to get a male friend this year, I believe the cashmere sweater will be perfect for him since he is always looking dapper and sophisticated. Thank you again!
There's a great company here in the UK that upcycle old/spoiled cashmere jumpers. They turn them into fingerless gloves, snoods, baby booties, really sumptuous scarves etc. It's called turtle-doves. I know you wouldn't be able to send Don's jumper but maybe there is something similar near you.
Men's gifts! Argh! So difficult for me. Thank you for the good ideas :) this is my first Christmas watching your videos and I am having a lovely time doing so. I very much enjoy your videos.
He's wearing that sweater in almost every Christmas picture.. Pretty cool gift!
Hal Scheuerman He really wears them all winter long. It was very sad when his old one "died." I think he'll be happy to have a replacement :)
What a great assortment of luxury items for gift suggestions this year, Jen! Thank you so much for sharing!
workofheartdesigns Thank you for watching
These are so great! Jen, your holiday videos are the BEST! I have said this before but you are the only youtuber whose reviews I can trust without any hesitation. Most tend to hawk a lot of sponsored things so I tend to be skeptical. Looking forward to more holiday videos :)
Love your videos jen, I'm a big fan! I think you should be confident in the knowledge you are brilliant.
Hey Jen, really enjoyed your video.....I loved your pics!!!
thanks for sharing Jen! I always love your gift guides.
Omg how great is that pot!! And how great is it that I actually have one of your "picks" already? I love that hot coa coa pot. I got it last week! Thanks for sharing as always
Thanks for sharing Jen! I have been trying to figure out what to get my husband for Christmas and that wallet is perfect. ~Traci
I love getting my mother in law p.j. Sets from Eddie Bauer. They are very good quality and come in petites. Not sure about tall though. There is usually a coordinating wrap sweater or pullover to match for a extra touch.
Lovely finds!!! xo On a completely unrelated note, can you tell me how you get your videos to fill up the entire TH-cam window? Mine always have a black border around them for some reason. Hugs to you, the fam, and the pup!
Hi Jen. Loved all your suggestions. I will definitely get the wallet for hubby and the tea tumbler and tea collection for myself;)
Tfs
Love your gift guides :) I'm so sad they stopped making your hot chocolate maker!! I've been searching for a good option instead and am not thrilled with what I'm seeing. Thanks for sharing!
Jen, someone shared that you donated money to a charity, this is nice but it seems like you have a lot of time. My daughters' and I work at the local mall at their Salvation Army Angel Tree. All you have to do is sit at their booth and explain what the Angels involve. Getting clothes and a gift for a needy child. On the given day our whole family works with distribution, the parents come to get the Angel Tree toys and clothes. It is so rewarding, the recipients cry and the workers cry. giving money is great, but giving time and joy is completely different.
Another great video Jen. I'm never disappointed😊
Thanks for the wonderful suggestions, Jen! Great ideas all around!
Just ordered pj's on sale and with free slippers! Thanks.
Thankyou, your videos are so helpful! I just love watching them.
Some great ideas here, thank you and can always buy cheaper brand. Love the PJs and slippers and wallet, fleecy cushion and hot chocolate pot xx
So glad you got the gift of bacon and suggested it to others. My family has a pig farm and I share our piglets on my channel :)
Love! Just yesterday I was thinking boy I hope you do this vid soon :) love your classic taste. Wish my husband was half the gift giver Don is! ;)
I agree, that the Bose are worth the splurge...we love traveling with ours. We saved a few dollars and found them at Bose Outlet for $250.
You also can never go wrong with a good bottle of wine or champagne in a monogrammed bag!
2012lel2012 Lovely!
Thank you! just ordered the thermometer for my grilling hubby who is tough to buy for. I love cashmere also and if you really want to splurge on high end fabulous cashmere for him or her, I love John Laing Cashmere. It's fabulous Scottish cashmere and you will love it.
wanda12411 TFS!
I got my father in law for our family gift exchange and he specifically asked for a wallet so using your recommendation! Glad it is Don approved!!
I have the WS Hot Chocolate pot and I love it., that salted caramel hot chocolate is TO-DIE-FOR!!!
Tessie Dobey We love it, too! I like to mix it with the regular kind half and half since it's a bit too salty for me :)
Thanks for all your gift idea videos. Very helpful!
Hi Jen. Am salivating at all those beautiful gifts you've shown.
You have most likely answered this before but can you tell me please where you got your bow necklace. Its very cute. Thank you.
Fiona Molloy It's from Tiffany. Glad to hear you enjoy the guide!
well Jen, my guide price would be a box of Swiss Miss hot chocolate or Merino wool socks on sale. but i do enjoy watching your videos and the thought you put into gifts.
Great video Jen! Love your picks!!! I also bought my dad a wallet. Should've looked at Tumi, bought him a Salvatore Farragamo, replacing the one that I bought him 5 years ago, which is still in good condition. Other things I bought in that price range, UGG boots, T3 hairdryer, Roku 3, pottery barn throw lol, Dior makeup brushes...
***** Great gift picks! TFS :)
I'm watching this video with my Bose headphones. Love them!
I love the necklace you have on in the video - I thought for sure you were including it! Any idea where you got it?
Also monogrammed LLBean boat and totes are great too!
2012lel2012 Nice!
Great gift ideas Jen!
Great gifts Jen. Thanks
I love love love your nail polish in this video. What's the brand and colour?
Everything was beautiful wish we had all those stores in CANADA
I just ordered the wallet for my husband, and some PJs for myself thanks to you xD.... and I've been considering that throw and it is on sale today only! I bet I make yet another purchase because of you before the night is through :P
Where is your bow necklace from! I love it!
Jen, I know you get a lot of comments/questions, but I really, really hope you can take a minute and respond. I am wondering how you like your craft room set up- desk. I am thinking of purchasing the desk for our computer room. We plan to purchase enough to have two spots for computers and then some extra table space. Has it held up pretty well? How long have you had it?
You have awesome suggestions! Thank you for your advice. These are fun videos to watch :)
Love the necklace you're wearing, especially when the chain disappears and it's just the bow on your neck. Is it from Tiffany's?
Daphne Lage Yes :)
LOVE these ideas ! Jen, Have you ever shopped at The Body Shop ? They have great stuff. I look forward to your stocking stuffer video :)
Loving this gift guide! Im def buying my boyfriend that wallet! thanks for the ideas xoxo
Thank you for sharing and very beautiful gift ideas love it :)
Wonderful Gift Ideas.thanks for sharing.
Love the Victoria Secret slippers,so nice and warm.I didn't have to buy the pajamas to get it free.I had a gift card.I'm thinking about buying a throw from Pottery Barn as a gift for my mother not only would I get 30% off but I also have a coupon for $25 off.TFS.
Thank you for the inspiration :) what is the nail polish you are wearing in this video - it's gorgeous!!!
V ismyname I believe it's Julep's Sawyer
thank you
loved watching this... can you post craft videos?exercise videos? day in the life of jen videos?
I would love to see a craft video too!
docpadma I post vlog-style videos on my myhousewifelife channel. I hope to do more crafty/hobby ones on my thebusybeebuzz channel in the new year.
will wait for those. yes, I do follow your vlog style videos and enjoy them.. I meant just quick get ready with me with make up type videos. I know there are tons of make up gurus doign all that jazz... but everybody is different and special in their own way
I wish it was winter in Australia for Christmas haha I'd love to be able to snuggle up for Christmas but nope it's summer and it's becoming super hot lol.
Silly question guys, but what is the battery-operated function of the headphones? I've never had headphones with batteries....just ones you plug in.
Yay!!! I always enjoy these. :)
You are so lucky I wish I was you I loving giving gifts but won't be able to as cant afford Christmas again this year but great vid you😊
Great video! Very inspiring. Men are so hard to buy for....
Your husband has great taste. I love the Kors bag :-)
Great suggestions, Jen! :)
Informative as always.
Love your eyes in this video...what are you using?
sazzifrazz78 Naked 2 palette - I'm obsessed right now :)
178 dollars for 1 shirt???? What . Holy richness . I love this channel, I'm just poor and shop at walmart.
It's summer here in Australia and now I have a craving for hot chocolate.
Question about the Garmin: do you know if you already have a heart rate moniter from another Garmin watch will it connect the watch automatically? I have a garmin currently, but am looking for an upgrade
lilsahsgirlie09 I believe you can sync it up. I suggest emailing Garmin CS to be sure.
Hey Jen. Would you ever get a fringe/bangs? It would look lovely on you.
xxGuItArGiRLxx89 Probably not...it would remind me too much of being 10 LOL ;)
That's kind of mean to the people that have bangs. ):
Kimberley Paige It sounds like to me that she had a fringe when she was 10 therefore it reminds her of being 10? Maybe?
Organized Like Jen Or how about a pixie cut à la Audrey Hepburn/Mia Farrow? :)
Can you do the video you did I think two years ago when you showed a tour of your room during Christmas
Alasia wynne I will be showing our holiday decor on my myhousewifelife channel :)
ok I love the way you decorate and your Christmas videos and also are you doing a craft room tour like you did one year I love the way you organized every thing and you love to save
Great video, thanks for the ideas.
I May Have To Gift Myself The Hot Chocolate Pot & Robe!
Love your picks as always! I buy that WS hot chocolate every year --- but I don't give it away :-) It's a little gift for myself each year. Love it!!!! Maybe this year I'll gift myself that hot chocolate pot too! I've been a good girl. :-)
Does anyone know if Jen has ever mentioned was carat size her engagement ring is? I'm curious only because I think it's a nice size without looking ostentatious and would like to know for my own reference.
AuntyWitchHazel It's just over 1 carat...I think 1.1? I'm not exactly sure.
Thank you so much Jen! It's lovely.
Great ideas.
GREAT VIDEO!
@Melly Pink. yes you can buy the Italian hot chocolate Ciobar from Amazon or other online retail stores. www.delonghi.com/en-au/products/coffee/coffee-makers/coffee-maker-accessories/ciobar---chocolate

The Teavana tea collection is buy one, get one free! Code is "HolidayBOGO"
For an alternative to the headphones, I recommend the Bose SIE2 Sport Earbuds www.bestbuy.com/site/bose-sie2-sport-earbud-headphones-green/6266299.p?id=1218725179959&skuId=6266299. I'm on my second pair and still love them. They work well to tune out others!
"the highest i spent was a little under $300" ----- really?
