Giving the gift of green:  Enjoy our annual holiday shopping guide

By Kate A. Miner EVERCANNABIS Correspondent

Whether shopping for yourself or your favorite canna-enthusiast, everybody deserves a green holiday!

My first recommendation for ‘green gifts’ is to start local. Ask your friendly neighborhood budtender to recommend their latest flower or new edibles and stick to growers nearby. If you’re shopping for others, use Leafly.com and search strains by “Feelings.” This filter can give you recommendations based on someone’s personality and preferences. For example, you can choose a strain that “adds feelings” (like energy or creativity) and/or “avoids feelings” (like dry eyes or paranoia).

When it comes to finding other creative ideas, we’ve got you covered. From stocking stuffers to more luxury options, we have suggestions for lots of lifestyles and budgets.

Stocking stuffers

Papers + Ink Custom-Printed Organic Rolling Papers Kits

https://papersandink.com/collections/custom-printed-organic-rolling-papers

Intriguing, artsy and unique – these dreamy rolling papers are designs with everything from secret notes and maps to animal and paisley prints. A fun and inventive website, Papers + Ink provides DIY tutorials, stocking-stuffer worthy supplies and vintage-style ashtrays.

Foria Botanical Vape Pen with CBD

https://www.foriawellness.com/products/intimacy-vape-pen

For those who want the chill of a vape, without the high of THC, this product is luxurious, and a personal favorite. The pen itself is gorgeous and works exceptionally well (I love the leaf that lights up on the bottom). The blend of organic botanicals includes peppermint and ginger, and a broad-spectrum CBD that can “enhance intimacy in the bedroom,” but I also enjoy it before yoga, after a massage or just before bed.

Boy Smells Best Buds Candles

https://boysmells.com/

Want to take a mental ride down the old town road? Cowboy Kush is one of four cannabis scents available from Boy Smells featuring earthy aromas, like suede and spice saffron. They come nicely packaged in full-sized or votive sets, or as singles.

Banana Boys Char-Cool Filters

Cannabolish https://www.cannabolish.com/ I’ve mentioned the Cannabolish candles in the past (still a great holiday option), but they have new products worth checking out, including cannabis odor-relieving sprays and candles in scents like lavender and wintergreen. For those not into candles, they also offer a gel. Just leave an open jar in any room to extinguish lingering smoke odors, and the plant-based formula works as it evaporates. No harsh chemicals or synthetic fragrance. Kits and small sizes make great gifts for smokers in your life.

For serious connoisseurs

Bespoke Post

https://www.bespokepost.com/

Bespoke Post has a fantastic selection of “smoking tools” that can’t be beat. Find things like flax rolling papers (that come in wood boxes), helping you roll better and fight deforestation.

You will also enjoy cool stash boxes, smoking cones, pouches, lighters, trays and 24k gold rolling papers. Everything is luxurious and highbrow. My favorite is the Cube Walnut Locking Cannabis Humidor.

Foria products are designed for and by women and come beautifully packaged. Perfect for pampering.

Stündenglass Gravity Hookah

https://stundenglass.com/products/stundenglass-gravity-hookah

It includes an aluminum hookah bowl kit and glass liner, but can also connect to any smoking or vaporization device. A silicone hose provides contactless consumption. It’s durable, futuristic in design and superb in function.

Whimsical Ideas

Tiny Vacuum Cleaners Urban Outfitters offers the world’s smallest vacuum cleaners, also available on Amazon. These tiny wonders are perfect for cleaning up your mess after a night of spinning the Blazy Susan or practicing with your new OTTO grinder. Lit Lighters Do yourself a favor and search ‘cannabis lighters’ or ‘unique lighters’ on Amazon. You’ll find a treasure trove of ideas worthy of the holidays and beyond. Some favorites are the Tesla Triple Arc Rechargeable Lighter with LED Lights, the Anrapley Torch Lighter, and the Clipper Mary Jane Lighter set. Vintage Wall Art Find it on Etsy, Amazon, or any wall art site. Do an image search for Vintage or Retro marijuana wall art. Create your own decoupage or finish off the basement walls with cool art that reminds us Reefer Madness is here to stay. Become An Historian I recently came across AntiqueCannabisBook.com which paints a colorful history of cannabis and a wealth of knowledge on everything you ever wanted to know about how marijuana was once used and sold as a medicine. This fascinating website is full of ideas for how to repurpose old labels or bottles to create your own collection. Or, go on Etsy and find cool stuff that someone has already made. Books, Books, and more Books! From healing or cooking to growing your own plants, there is a never-ending supply of great books on weed. Don’t be shy, type the word ‘cannabis,’ with any word after it on Amazon, and you’ll find a book. Dank Shoes You can always find T-shirts, dresses, socks or hats emblazoned with green leaves or anything smoking a joint, but shoes have taken it to new heights. Think dog walking Crocs dappled in pot leaves, NIKE’s Skunk Dunks (all greened-out with hazy purple pops and a stash pocket behind the tongue), the Huf Hupper’s pledge to the leaf with a blunt take on their home-grown hightops, or dank green Air Jordan’s with a saddle-bag-stash pocket. Or check out MasterDank.com for more ideas, including pot leaf flip flops.
