Each year, the holiday season might be a bit different, but there’s one constant: gifting can be difficult. That’s why we love the holiday gift guide from Google, which uses data from Google searches to know precisely how popular an item is.
Google just debuted its best 100 gifts lists, narrowed down into six categories: home and garden, apparel and accessories, electronics, beauty, toys and games, and health and wellness. The home and garden category is chock full of great recommendations, providing gift-givers with the perfect picks for your dog-loving friend to your home chef sibling.
If you’ve been on TikTok at all this year, you’ve probably noticed two home goods items that you just can’t seem to escape: the Ninja Creami Deluxe and the mini Nugget ice makers. According to Google, searches for the Ninja Creami Deluxe went up 5,000 percent this year, and Nugget ice makers were the top-searched ice makers. These are the perfect gifts for anyone who likes to keep things cool.
The Caraway Nonstick Ceramic Cookware Set was the top-searched kitchenware set this year, making it pretty much the perfect gift for anyone in the middle of a move or looking to up their chef game this year.
HAY crates topped storage crate searches, according to Google, which isn’t much of a surprise. They’re all over social media, and Urban Outfitters has been selling them in loads of sizes for some time now.
They work great for storing vegetables on countertops, because the open slats allow for airflow, and they’re also a cute and fun way to store unsightly cords or crafts.
Each year, it seems like we get more and more obsessed with milk alternatives. This year search interest for nut milk makers doubled.

An elegant wool coat for chilly winter walks, a show-stopping candelabra for the New Year tablescape, a brand new trowel or a cosy pair of cotton pyjamas: Christmas is the perfect opportunity to treat the gardener in your life to the tools, accessories and treats they’ll cherish for years to come.
If you’re already looking ahead to spring flowers, then you’re probably also well aware that right now is the ideal time for planting bulbs.
Q: Could you please recommend some species of trees and shrubs that can be used to make natural, home-made Christmas decorations? I love to decorate the house with ivy and holly from the garden, but I’d love some suggestions as to what else I might grow that can be used in the same way? AN, Monkstown, Dublin
