A framed picture is an easy win, but this digital version kicks things up a notch. Upload some of your sweetest (or silliest) snaps to the Frameo companion app, so the frame will have a handful of pictures to cycle through upon unboxing. Then encourage the recipient to add more as the years go on.

Aches and pains are a part of life, but that doesn't mean you can't help someone try to nip 'em in the bud. They can throw on this heated massager to work out knots, combat stiffness and soothe overworked muscles. There are three intensity levels and temperatures that'll help them find the setting that's just right.

Take them back to a sentimental spot — the bar where they first locked eyes, the church where they said "I do" or the home that they built from the ground up. Upload a map of the area, then select a size, color and the text you'd like to appear in the bottom right corner. Prints start at $41 — get it as-is or framed for an additional cost.

You can easily spend upwards of $300 on a pair of quality noise-cancelling headphones, but Senior Tech Writer Rick Broida says this budget-friendly pair "rivals ones costing three or four times as much." The highlights: They can play for up to 55 hours on a single charge (compared to 20 hours for the Apple AirPods Max), plus they have a handy Easy Chat feature (cup your hand over the left earcup to switch into transparency mode for, well, easy chatting).

There's a science to cooking meat just right, and this smart thermometer's got it down pat. Monitor the internal and external temps to ensure it's fully cooked by keeping an eye on the compatible app — even if you're in the next room (or, ya know, 165 feet away). The app will ding once the meat is done, then it'll suggest a specific "rest time" and let you know when it's good to eat. Senior Deals Writer Carrie McCabe had her husband put it to the test, and he raved that "I've honestly never grilled better meat — it almost feels like cheating."

Bulky wallets, be gone! Slip up to a dozen cards into this RFID-blocking wallet, complete with a cash strap and money clip so he can always have a few bucks on hand.

Make his spirits a whole lot smokier this holiday season. This white oak smoker is the star of the show — it rests on a rocks glass, snifter or cloche, enhancing the flavor of the foods or spirits inside. It comes with a tin of smoking chips, which are made from actual whiskey barrels and air-dried for up to 24 months.

Buying a fragrance for someone else is risky. Instead of committing to a single cologne, pick up this sampler and let him make the final pick. Once he tries out all 11 minis, he can take the included voucher to Sephora and redeem it for a full-size version of his favorite.

These bags aren't just reserved for the beach. Sure, they're waterproof and washable, but Amazon shoppers use this all-purpose bag for everything under the sun, with one writing that the "Mary Poppins of tote bags" is the "perfect companion for my daughter's cheerleading escapades." Go with the biggest size for maximum storage and tailor it to the recipient with a few Bogg Bits (like this adorable avocado!).

A chunky take on a classic, these statement-making hoops can be worn on their own or paired with a stack of sparkly studs for maximum impact. They come in gold vermeil or silver (only $58), but opt for the gold to show that you're up on the trends. (Psst, Google's Holiday 100 revealed that gold was the most-searched color of hoop earrings this year.)

My philosophy: Everyday upgrades make the best gifts. So, if she lathers up with a body oil and lotion on the daily, then treat her to this hardworking duo by Osea. Victoria Beckham, Kelly Ripa and other celebs swear by this seaweed-packed stuff, which is said to moisturize while improving overall skin elasticity. The full-size bottles come to $100 total if you buy them separately, so save big by snagging this set!

Your Swiftie has lived and breathed The Eras tour for the last two years, but somehow that's not enough. Pick up Taylor's self-published book, complete with never-before-seen performance photos and handwritten reflections, so they can keep the magic going now that the tour's over.

Little artists can snap a photo, then project the image on a piece of paper and sketch what they see. Play around with the size of the image by sticking the projector on a stack of books or another elevated surface — the higher it is, the larger the drawing will be.
