Holiday Gift Ideas for the Cannabis Lover in Austin
Hey there, Austin! It’s that time of year again when we start thinking about gifts for our friends and family. But hold up! Before we dive into that, let me tell you about something a little different this holiday season. You see, while I enjoy the festive vibes of December, I’m also actively trying to keep it all in perspective—especially when it comes to how we greet each other. “Merry Christmas”? Not so much. In fact, I’d prefer to avoid any phrases that might suggest everyone is on board with the holiday cheer. Instead, let’s just chat about what’s important—like finding the perfect gift for the stoner in your life!
Stay Stylish with a Stank-Proof Fanny Pack
First up, let’s talk about fanny packs! Yes, those quirky little bags are making a comeback, and for good reason. Perfect for securely stashing your pipe, lighter, and stash, they can keep your gear discreet. At SmokeATX, I found some fabulous options by Revelry, coming in at around $50. They’re stylish, functional, and best of all, designed to keep odors locked in!
Retro Meets Modern with Functional Smoking Devices
Next, how about an item that combines nostalgia with modern convenience? There’s a unique smoking device resembling a water bottle—simply stick a lit joint inside, squeeze it, and enjoy a smooth puff without sharing germs! They’re available at most head shops, including Abe’s Smoke Shop, for just $28. Definitely a great conversation starter!
Make It Easy to Keep It Fresh
Remember those DIY tricks we used to do back in high school? Stuffing dryer sheets into a toilet paper tube? Well, there’s a new eco-friendly version of that! You can gift a product that filters smoke odor without all the hassle. It could be perfect for your pal who often crashes in Airbnbs and wants to keep things on the down-low.
Stylish yet Potent Bongs and Bubblers
For the fancy-smokers in your life, there’s a stunning bubbler from GRAV Labs that looks more like a piece of art than a smoking accessory. And trust me, it hits beautifully! If you’re shopping at Greenbelt Botanicals, you might even stumble upon some high-quality flower prerolls that are bound to impress. Their Blue Nerdz strain, with a whopping 34% THCA, has garnered rave reviews from customers!
Sweet Dreams Are Made of This
Speaking of gifts that keep giving, how about some gummies? These are not your average gummies! They come packed with 10mg of THC, CBD, and CBN—the last one being your go-to for a restful night’s sleep. Picture this: you hand these over to a restless friend, and they treat you like a holiday hero!
Portable Hash Vapes – Once Complicated, Now Simple
If anyone is battling with cumbersome dab rigs, they’ll be thrilled to receive a portable hash vape. The Puffco Pivot offers a quality experience at a fraction of the price compared to traditional devices. It’s sleek, stylish, and incredibly easy to use, making it a perfect gift for those always on the go.
Bring a Touch of Zen with Lotus Petals
For those interested in something truly unique, consider cones made from blue lotus petals. You can fill them with cannabis and enjoy a mild tranquil effect that’s been around since ancient times. Plus, if you want to splurge, check out the exquisite glass pieces created by the local artisan known as “Salt.” These artistic bongs resemble mystical sea creatures—definitely a showstopper for the right person!
Wake and Bake with a Twist
Maybe you know someone who kicks off their day with coffee and cannabis. A gift card to a local spot that offers infused drinks could be just the ticket! Picture your friend sipping on a THC chai latte to start their day right—what a treat!
Cherish the Spirit of Giving
No matter what gifts you choose this season, remember that it’s the thought that counts. Let’s enjoy this festive period while being mindful and considerate of everyone’s unique traditions. Happy gift hunting, Austin, and here’s to a wonderful holiday season, however you celebrate it!
