The “Wait, That’s Actually a Real Thing?” Gift Guide

Things You Didn’t Know You Needed in Your Life

You know when you see something and you’re like “Wow, something that great actually exists?” Well that’s a common response to the goods from our friends over at Huckberry. If you’re looking for last-minute gifts that are not the usual socks and ties and sweaters, we got you.

The Marshmallow Crossbow

Truly a one-of-a-kind deal. The perfect mechanism to aggravate your siblings on Christmas morning or to provide marshmallows to hot chocolate from across the room. If your aim is good enough, that is.


The Sailing Ship Kite

Flying kites, truly a lost art. For some. Take yourself and your loved ones back to the good ol’ days with this articulate kite. Crafted like a true ship, wind will fill the sails and you’ll venture off into the open sea—well sky, in this instance. 


Wireless Portable Record Player

If you know Whalebone, you know we love classic vinyl. Only problem is, it’s hard to travel with record players and cars are just too high-tech these days with the bluetooth and touch screens. We like authenticity here, so if you’re looking for a gift for us, or anyone else with ears who is on the go, this is it. A wireless, portable record player. Groovy. 


True North Spin Coin

The perfect gift for all of your directionally challenged loved ones. Something small that will always help you find your way north. And maybe a little east. Like all the way to the East End. We’ve heard good things about that place. 


Wireless Meat Thermometer

Cooking meat is always a pain. It has to be a certain temperature or you could get a foodborne illness, blah blah blah. Then you always see that long metal stick with the cord that is always tangled and doesn’t work correctly and no one knows if the meat is really at whatever degree it needs to be. Here is the answer you’ve been looking for. Wireless with a display on your phone. “Hey Siri, is the turkey done?” Welcome to the future. 


Portable Solar-Charged Light

We all know people who are afraid of the dark. And people who camp. And people who live in places that constantly lose power. So for all the people you know who check these marks, Huckberry has just the thing. A portable light, charged by the sun. No more darkness, unless it’s already dark and the light is dead. Plan accordingly.
