Johnson's picks:
Vibrant planters
Ablaze Bundle (Set of 3)
“A house plant paired with a beautiful planter is one of my go-to host or hostess gifts, as you’re able to give the recipient two gifts in one. And this holiday season, shoppers are embracing gifts and decor that celebrate self-expression and these vibrantly hand-painted planters are a great option for those looking to gift colorfully.”

Berliet's gifts for the home picks:
Candle that doubles as a cocktail glass or home decor
22K Gold Nightclub of Harlem "Savoy" Luxury Candle
"This candle by is a particularly unique gift because the vessel is meant to be used as a cocktail glass once the candle burns down. When a candle both looks and smells divine (and can be transformed into another item), it is truly a gift that keeps on giving."
