Curated home goods from an interior designer’s perspective—timeless, beautiful, and made to be loved for years.
When it comes to gifting, the most memorable presents are the ones that feel personal—pieces chosen with care, that add beauty and purpose to daily life. This is not a mass-market roundup. These are Rachel Blindauer’s own favorite finds: high-end home goods she lives with, gifts she’s given, and pieces she returns to again and again.
Rachel’s philosophy is simple: only own what you love. And because she’s constantly sourcing and shopping from everywhere—showrooms, markets, ateliers, and artisan studios—you can trust these will be keepers.
Low-Toxicity Laundry Powder + Luxury Scented Dryer Sheets
A gift that transforms an everyday ritual into a small luxury. Rachel uses Meliora Laundry Powder in Lavender for its low-toxicity formula (baking soda, vegetable soap, coconut, and lavender oil) on intimate clothing, paired with Laundry Sauce Indonesian Patchouli or Siberian Pine scented dryer sheets for towels and bedding. The combination makes sheets feel indulgent and scent the room with quiet elegance.
Luxurious Throw
A good night’s sleep is essential for everyone, and what better way to enhance the comfort and style of a bedroom than with a luxurious bedding set? Choose a set made from high-quality materials like linen for a soft and breathable feel. Opt for neutral colors and timeless designs to ensure the bedding complements any decor style.
Large Elegant Serving Dishes
Elevate their dining table with a sculptural fruit bowl that doubles as a salad vessel. Versatility matters—opt for ceramic or wood designs with clean lines that work for casual breakfasts or holiday feasts.
Artisanal Candles
Candles are the quickest way to shift the mood of a room. Choose hand-poured, natural wax candles infused with essential oils for a cleaner burn. Rachel seeks out pieces where the vessel itself is as beautiful as the fragrance—so when the wax is gone, the container becomes a permanent part of the home.
Copper Straws
For the wellness enthusiast, a set of copper straws is a perfect gift. These straws work great for smoothies! Copper is an essential mineral for bone strength, heart health, immune health, and much more. As an essential mineral, your body needs it to function properly and stay healthy. However, since the body can’t make its own copper, you must get it through your diet.
Mayan Bee Honey Shampoo
Forget perfume—this scent does the work. This smells amazing. Made with organic Yucatán Mayan bee honey, which I mostly suggest as a body wash due to the scent nourishes with natural vitamins and minerals. A nourishing, hydrating, and rejuvenating shampoo, made with organic Yucatan Mayan bee honey from local farms. Made in Yucatan, Mexico, Organic Mayan bee honey has both emollient and humectant properties, making it a wonderful hair moisturizer. Contains several naturally occurring vitamins and minerals that help keep hair healthy and shiny.
