Core77’s Ultimate Gift Guide for Designers: Week 1 Winners
This holiday, share your Ultimate Gift Guide with Core77 for a chance to gift yourself some fun prizes. We’re on the lookout for your Top 5 holiday gift ideas and will reward the best gift guides with awesome rewards, including gift certificates and designer-approved products. It gets better—three Runner-Ups will each win a handy multitool from Leatherman, one Editor’s pick will take home a set of double-ended art markers from Prismacolor, and one Community Choice winner with the most votes will win a Wacom Intous Pro Paper tablet!
To kick off our first week of gift guides, three submissions chosen by our editors have earned their curators a $25 Areaware gift certificate and a spot in the running for the grand prize come December 15.
Here are our 3 Editor’s Picks:
This gift guide by Richard Ling is a maker’s dream, boasting everything from engraved chocolate holiday cards to tiny electronic synth kits. We love that this guide encourages people to get out and make this holiday season, and we couldn’t help but smile at the title!
Matt Duncan’s “Kitchenware Gifts for the Office Woodsman” solves the mystery of what to get your adventurous friend that still has to work a 9 to 5 desk job. Keep it real, keep it functional, my friends.
Speaking of functional, it doesn’t get more useful than Andrew Maffett’s “Phone, Keys, And…” gift guide. This guide right here features 5 super practical, super durable items for every day carry—who doesn’t need to stock up on the essentials, am I right?!
Honorable Mention
Everyone here in the Core77 office is a sucker for a good warm beverage and cozy outfit. So, we decided to add an honorable mention this week! Brendan Crawley will be receiving a surprise mystery gift from our team for his “Cozy & Sans Caffeine” guide.
Thanks to all of those who submitted, and congratulations to our week 1 winners! You’ll be receiving a $25 Areaware gift certificate. Check out all the potential items you could snag with your prize here!
