I know I don’t usually share gift guides till much closer to December, but I’ve found gift guide shopping is a good distraction for my brain this week. We’re stuck at home anyway — might as well get a jump start on the holiday shopping. : )
The 20 picks in this guide are all from a new-to-me shop called Apollo. I was especially focused on items that would be comforting, entertaining, or distracting during quarantine. Bonus! Get 15% Off with code OCTMEM.
Zodiac Mugs, $ 25
These come with a lid and a little spoon. What a perfect gift.
Faux Leather Tissue Box, 4 color options, $ 16
I’m always on the lookout for good tissue box options. This one seems especially handsome.
Mini Magnetic Vase, 8 designs to choose from, $ 12
For their fridge. So sweet and tiny! Made from glass and ceramic. Choose your favorite. An ideal spot for that pretty little weed/wildflower they spotted on their walk.
Christmas Tree Tapestry, $ 19
Perfect for a space that doesn’t have any space — like a dorm, a bedroom, or an office wall. You can add lights or ornaments too (click through to see more images).
Han Solo Ice Cube Tray, $ 15
To add some joy to the life of any Star Wars fan, or even for a themed-Star Wars party (remember when there were parties in the Before time?).
Round Hammock, $ 119
So handsome, right? Just what you need to create a cozy corner for hanging out.
Candy Colored Mismatched Earrings, $ 13
I love the geometric bright options. And the geode ones too!

How cute that there’s a little letter inside! I bet you could even have it inscribed.

It rotates! And it creates a pattern of light on the ceiling as it plays a lovely melody.
Retro Wax Seal Stamp Set, $ 22
Haven’t you always wanted one of these?
Wool Coat with Collar Bow, $ 264
This pick is way pricier than anything else on this list, but OMG how adorable is this coat. (I just wanted you to see it.)
