On the top of my Christmas list, this fake palm tree setup is so cute and perfect for a California Christmas (or for pretending you’re celebrating in California!).
California Scented Candles
Whether you live in California or wish you did, these candles will remind you of what it feels like to be back in the Golden State. Scents include Southern California, Northern California, Los Angeles, and San Francisco.

California-Shaped Cutting Board
A California-shaped cutting board will go great with one of those cookbooks I mentioned above. Pick from a plain cutting board or one that includes destinations throughout the state.
Wines of California Book
Pair this California wine book with a nice bottle of California’s greatest and you’ve got the perfect gift. This book teaches all about the state’s wine history and geography, and best of all, it includes recipes and food pairings. Yum!
California Road Trip Guide
Anyone who loves to travel and road trip through California can use one of these books. Check out Lonely Planet’s California’s Best Trips or Moon’s Pacific Coast Highway Road Trip.
California Tees
Every girl should have a shirt to represent that California love! You can find tons of options on Amazon, like this one.
California State Map Wall Art
A cute sign of the California state map will make the perfect addition to someone’s home office. I love this map that lists surf breaks in California.
Coastal Photography Prints
Another great addition to the home office is a set of coastal photography prints that gives all the beachy vibes. I love this set with the lifeguard tower or this set of 6 coastal prints.
Vintage National Park Tee or Hoodie
For that National Park lover, gift something like this Joshua Tree NP tee and hoodie. You can basically find these for any of California’s National Parks!
Vintage Wall Decor
You can also find lots of vintage wall decor of National Parks and cities in California. Some good finds include this one of Yosemite NP, Joshua Tree NP, Huntington Beach, Los Angeles, San Diego, and Pacific Coast Highway.
Route 66 Guide
Ending at the Santa Monica Pier in LA, this Route 66 guide book is great for someone who dreams of checking America’s greatest road trip off their bucket list.
150 Nature Hot Spots in California
We can all benefit from more outdoor time, and lucky enough we can enjoy it year-round in most of California. This book of 150 nature spots will share some of the best parks, conservation areas, and wild places to explore in California.
I Love You California Mug and Tote Bag
Combine this tote bag and this mug to create an “I Love You California” gift set that makes a great “thank you” gift or the perfect stocking stuffer.
Hopefully, you found the perfect gift for the California-obsessed person in your life or at least something for yourself! It’s ok, go ahead and #TreatYourself.
