Buying from small batch makers means gifts that are unique, distinctive and usually crafted to the highest quality—check out our holiday guide for 2024.

The season of giving is upon us. Time to start those holiday lists. This year, among early shoppers, we’ve seen a strong preference for small-batch, artisanal gifts—and why not? While mass production is still the norm, there’s a growing demand for curated pieces and accessories–for timeless keepsakes that imbue spaces with the unique, one-of-a-kind charm that can only be achieved through approaches like small-batch dyes, handmade craftsmanship, and thoughtful, local design.

It feels almost counterintuitive, but gift-giving doesn’t have to be hard. We all want to give (and receive) items that are useful and beautiful. Perhaps it’s something we wouldn’t splurge on for ourselves. Small batch housewares and linens mean gifts that are perfectly imperfect, with minor variations that bestow life and soul to each item. The result? Stunning keepsakes of superior craftmanship, sure to be treasured and used for years to come.

To give you a head start, we at Sömn Home have created a holiday gift list of beautiful and useful items, sure to delight—at price points for all budgets.

Linen Waffle Hand Towels - From $28

Treat loved ones to the coziest towels ever. Crafted from soft, medium-weight linen in a beautiful waffle weave, our linen hand towels are soft yet sturdy, absorbent yet fast-drying, and luxuriously sustainable. Thoughtful design elevates every handwashing experience while remaining sustainably sourced for a guilt-free indulgence. In three stunning and versatile colours—Dark Sky, Dune, and Off-White—these towels deliver a spa-like experience and look great in every bathroom!

Shams and Bolsters - From $55

Throw pillows are such an affordable luxury. You can go one of two ways with our whimsical decorative pillows—square shams or bolsters. For example, our Harper Square Sham is meticulously crafted from premium, sustainable yarn and encased in a durable linen cover. In shades of Ocean Teal and Sand, it offers elegance and versatility—just add cushion. Alternatively, the Harper Bolster Cushion makes the perfect addition to any living or bedroom. 

Feather Pillow (Queen) – From $100

Give the gift of rest. Customize our heirloom-quality duck-down insert by choosing from three fill levels for soft, medium, or firm comfort. Stuffed with 100% Genuine Duck Feathers for luxurious comfort and resilient support and certified by the Down Association of Canada. Pillows come encased in a 400-thread count, OEKO-TEX® certified smooth cotton fabric that guarantees sleepers hypoallergenic protection for up to five years. Don’t forget you can achieve the perfect softness and loft by scheduling a pillow fitting at our Vancouver showroom. Shop for a loved one, friend, or even yourself.

Fitted Linen Sheet - From $265

Sumptuous sheets make a great holiday gift. Sömn’s premium linen sheets offer year-round breathability and bring an Instagram-worthy, lived-in look to any sleep space. Stretchy corner pockets keep our fitted linen sheets securely in place and easily accommodate tall mattresses. Crafted from OEKO-TEX® certified, traceable long-staple linen yarns, our linen sheets are hypoallergenic, moisture-wicking, and temperature regulating for a more restful, rejuvenating sleep experience loved ones will appreciate year-round.

Throw Blankets -  From $320

Who doesn’t love to hunker down in a cozy throw? Just add a book and hot chocolate for holiday bliss. Choose from a couple of different options. The Harper Throw Blanket, a blend of our top-selling Ocean Teal and Sand hues, offers a timeless and sturdy texture. However, our stunning alpaca throws and blankets will be arriving shortly. These blankets are crafted from soft, premium-quality, skin-friendly alpaca fibres in a dense texture for an unmistakably artisanal product that looks stunning in any space.

Pjs– From $250

Luxury loungewear? Yes, please. Our super versatile, gender-neutral pjs mean sleeping stylishly and sustainably. Like all premium linen, the fabric is breathable, woven from long staple yarns from a medium-weight linen that feels flawless against the skin. Giftees will love the free-flowing silhouettes and dreamy, serene colours. Available in long and short sleeves–lovingly made by a team of gifted seamstresses right here in metro Vancouver.

Sömn Gift Card – From $25

Okay, we know people have strong opinions about gift cards, but they fit so perfectly into stockings. The Sömn Home E-Gift Card grants the freedom to choose from our premium collection of home linen and décor. An excellent choice for home design enthusiasts, it arrives instantly in the inbox for easy redemption. Simply forward the E-Gift Card to your intended recipient—no wrapping or shipping required. 

Warm Holiday Wishes 

At Sömn Home, we get that gift-giving is less about the result and more about the intention. Still, the benefits of small-batch gifts are endless. To receive a small batch gift is to slow down and reconnect with natural materials sourced sustainably and with care. It’s about giving something useful and necessary, something that helps turn the house into a home—is there any better definition for a gift from the heart?

We at Sömn Home wish you a happy and safe start to your Holiday Season. May you fill your hearts as you fill your shopping bags—and make memories you will treasure for years to come.
