Top 5 Gifts Under $500
1) 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.
2) Magnetic Tie Clip
Tie Mags keep your tie in place with industrial-strength magnets, and keep it looking pristine afterward. Magnetic force replaces pins that puncture, and clips that leave a mark. The Convert is easy to hide while keeping your tie in place.
3) Olive Wood Charcuterie & Cheese Board
Kamsah: Olive Wood Charcuterie & Cheese Board
4) Tech Organizer
Keep your tech in check. This grid-like organizer holds an iPad or tablet along with other daily essentials all in one place. Stretchy bands and pockets neatly wrangle things like cables and chargers, while the vertical design maximizes space inside a backpack or bag.
5) Pain Relief Balm
Treat skin to a double dose of relief. This all-natural recovery balm is Made in the USA and shares the same moisturizing base as Dr. Doug’s Miracle balm (thank you, organic olive and coconut oil and beeswax), with added arnica and magnesium to help quell soreness and stiffness. Opt for the extra magnesium-rich balm that can be used to help ease nerve pain and help improve skin elasticity.
