I have been a dedicated blogger for about a good year now. Blogging is very very rewarding but admittedly also very time-consuming! Depending on how you run your blog it can be either as a business or just a passion project/creative outlet. Regardless of if you plan to monetize or not, there are still helpful tools to help you make blogging easier but the cost can add up insanely fast!
I consider everything I do for my blog as an investment because my blog is my business BUT there are tons of bloggers out there who blog solely to have fun but have invested in their blogs too! Just like when you start any project, costs do incur.

For example, I started venturing into the art of watercolour painting. When I first bought my supplies, I easily racked up close to $100. So, getting to the point, any hobby you have will likely incur costs but as long as you love what you are doing and are happy then it’s 100% worth the money.
Do you have any hobbies that you have invested in besides blogging? I’d love to know what you’re into!

HERE ARE 10 INSANELY HELPFUL GIFTS FOR BLOGGERS:
Pinterest Templates
Pinterest is my number one source of traffic! Pinterest works for so many bloggers because it is literally the only platform that’s designed to take you to another website. Instagram is a platform that wants to keep you on the platform while Facebook and Twitter make link sharing easier so it’s great to gain traffic too!
Just like every other blogging task, things take time. Pinterest templates help you create batches of pins in a quarter of the time, it takes you otherwise! I have bought so many pin templates and recommend them to every blogger out there.
Here are a few Pinterest Templates from Gumroad and Etsy that I adore:
New Domain
I recently bought a new domain through Bluehost for another blog I have planned for the New Year! Although I adore my blog, I am not the person who can trust all my eggs in one basket hence my second blog! Bluehost does not currently offer gift cards so if you want to do this for a friend who is eagerly wanting to set up their first blog or even their second, third, fourth blog then the best way to do this is a prepaid gift card or via a PayPal transfer!
Of course, there are other hosts out there that may be offering gift cards but I love and use Bluehost 🙂

Ebooks
Oh man, there is tons of information out there and sometimes it is so difficult to absorb all the information in yourself. I tend to love listening to a few people instead of people telling me what to do and the information always contradicting one another.
I suggest not breaking the bank for ebooks but it’s nice to support other bloggers and purchasing their hard work as well as having something for yourself to always look back on! I have purchased a handful of ebooks and do not regret it at all! There are times in my blogging journey where I need to take a step back and re-evaluating my strategy and re-reading ebooks go a long way!
Here are a few Blogging Ebooks from Gumroad that I adore:
Canva Membership
Canva literally changed my life! This sounds dramatic but I’m 100% serious. I used Canva way before I even thought about starting a blog. A girlfriend of mine recommended it to me as I was in post-secondary for Marketing and I have not looked back. I invested in the premium version of Canva and have designed so many projects throughout my life from my wedding invites, printables and home decor, greeting cards and so much more!
Canva premium unlocks so many different features and makes creating social media graphics so quick and easy! There are literally so many pre-made designs that even if you don’t have a big creative bone, you’ll be able to have gorgeous graphics for personal and professional use.
Unfortunately like a Bluehost domain, there isn’t an option to buy someone a Canva gift card so the best route to do this is by sending a friend who wants a Canva membership the cost of a few months to a year, money through PayPal or a pre-paid credit card.

Blog Logo
I can truly say that I am not alone when it comes to thinking about blog rebranding. As humans we are constantly growing and evolving so what you thought might’ve been your vibe a year ago has probably changed now. Worry not, there are tons of talented digital creators out there that have your back!
Although it’s definitely not easy revamping everything from scratch, a new blog logo is a great start! You can definitely get a gift card on Etsy to gift or again, you could definitely just do a PayPal or visa gift card!
Here are a few Blog Logo designers on Etsy that I adore:

Planner
Life gets so busy especially if you’re a blogger who may balance children, have a full-time job or have other responsibilities. One thing that really helps is having a blog planner so you are organized and know exactly what you’re doing! If I didn’t have a planner, I would be in more shambles than I already am!!
Whatever times you may have every day for blogging or maybe just once or twice a week, it’s great to know what you need to get done and what you’re writing for the week!
Here are a few Blog Planners on Etsy and Gumroad that I adore:
Sandra from The Digital Suite Co has offered my readers a 50% off coupon to her entire store until January 1, 2022! If you’re looking for the most gorgeous digital products, be sure to check this shop up and use code LYNN50 at checkout!

Mug Warmer
I don’t know if anyone else has this problem but my office/workspace is upstairs and I’ll go downstairs to get myself a hot cup of tea or coffee then go upstairs and forget about it and it gets cold! I don’t have a mug warmer yet but I’ve been meaning to get one for a while now!
It’s on my Christmas wish list for sure and the day I get it, I’ll probably be wishing I got it sooner! A lot of my friends have mug warmers and love it.
Here are a few Mug Warmers from Amazon that I adore:

Notebooks
If you’re like me, you need paper and a pen by your side although you do everything online. It’s easy to get confused with all the spreadsheets, google docs, affiliate accounts and all the platforms that come with being a blogger. When I feel overwhelmed, I find that doing a brain dump on paper is one of the only things that really help me!
My notebook is a 5 tabbed, lined paper book like the Five Star one below where I do a lot of brain dumps, calculations and just write down anything that’s bothering me.
Here are a few notebooks from Amazon that I adore:
Headphones
There are times where I just can’t focus and need to just be in my own head with my favourite coffee shop music. Headphones are great for the times where you don’t have enough time to finish all your points in your to-do list and need to maximize productivity!
Here are a few headphones from Amazon that I adore:
Calendar
I find that especially now that I work from home, I admit that I lose track of my days. It can either go by so fast or so slow that the days kind of blur together. Although computers and laptops have calendars, it’s nice to have a wall or desk one that you can constantly look at and add in some important memos!
Here are a few wall calendars from Amazon that I adore:

Candles
One of my must-haves on my desk is definitely a candle. I love blogging in comfort and having a lit candle, warm cup of coffee and a blanket over me. Blogging for me is one of the best hobbies I’ve ever had and would love to make it a full-time career one day! Ambiance is crucial for successful blogging!
Here are a few wall candles from Amazon that I adore:
Last but not least, being a blogger is hard work and we need to take time for self-care!

Between all of these (which are all as useful as it gets for us bloggers!!) the mug warmer might be my absolute favourite. And I say this while I sip my cold cup of coffee, again. Thank you Lynn xx
The mug warmer has got to be my favourite thing on this list! x

These are fabulous gift ideas for any blogger! Personally I would love a mug warmer and a Canva membership. Thanks for sharing these Lynn! I will definitely be putting these on my Christmas list!
These are all such great suggestions! Really need to up my game and get a blog planner instead of using millions of papers and a whiteboard, even if I don’t have the space, but I think it would really help to get organised! I will have to get Simona the mug warmer! Canva, ebooks and templates were a god sent! x
I love headphones. I always am wanting a new pair of headphones. Such a great gift idea.
This was so useful! I have been blogging for a long time but I am still finding ways to make it easier on myself creating the right atmosphere is key so I love the candles, headphones and planner tips! I have a Canva subscription and it has been a life saver!
Mind blown! I’ve been paying someone to make my Pinterest Pins. Never thought to download templates and create my own. I’m on to it! Helpful post!
This is an incredibly on point and helpful list! I love the idea of gifting things like blog logos, Canva memberships, or even ebooks to my writing friends as it feels like a specific and useful thing to gift!
Do you know, I have never heard a mug warmer before! I love what it does. <3
Thanks for sharing!
I love these gift ideas so much! I think I’m going to have to invest in a mug warmer and maybe get one for a blogger friend – having a hot drink while you work is really helpful for comfort and staying productive and focused 🙂 Thanks for the ideas!
This is such a handy guide! I know as a blogger I would want all these things! haha! Thank you so much for featuring my blog planner! 🙂
These are all great ideas & I could definitely use a Canva membership! I also need a mug warmer because I often forget about my tea because I get caught up doing something else then it gets cold haha
