Finding classy ways to express your inner geek can be a challenge, but the folks over at Picnic Time have created a beautiful wooden 10.2″ cheese board that will make any Star Wars fan happy while still keeping it classy enough for a dinner party. To be honest, though, what attracted us to this cheese board wasn’t the etched-in-image of The Death Star (though it is freakin cool!). No, what took this cheeseboard over the edge for us is the hidden compartment that contains all the tools you need for a proper cheese service. It has a cheese cleaver, a cheese plane, and a fork-tipped cheese knife. This gives you a tool for virtually every hardness of cheese. This is the perfect gift for anyone who loves Star Wars and Cheese… so pretty much everyone, right?

Another great product to check out from Picnic Time is this Glass, Nightmare Before Christmas serving tray. Like their cheese board, this is also made out of ecologically friendly rubberwood, but this tray also has a removable glass tray that features a stunningly illustrated image of Jack Skellington and Sally on top of the hill. It’s a great tray for serving appetizers or drinks. It lets you show your love of a great movie while still giving the impression that you are an actual grown-up. This gift is perfect for anyone who loves Nightmare before Christmas. If you like the tray, but don’t care for the film, Picnic Time offers it in several other styles based on other Disney properties, college football, and the NFL.

If you know a Disney fan with an ounce of romance in their heart, there might not be a better gift in the world than the Mickey & Minnie Mouse Champion Picnic Basket. There are very few things in the world that are more romantic than a picnic for two. There is so much to love about this classicly-woven basket. What blew us away the most was the attention to detail. It’s not just a basket, after all, it is a complete dish set for eating your picnic as well! It has Mickey & Minnie ceramic plates, wine glasses, silverware, and napkins. You can either prepare the perfect picnic meal or just get some take-out. Either way, you’ll be dining in style. We absolutely love this picnic basket!

If you’ve not seen Ukonic’s Star Wars Light Saber Floor Lamps, you are missing out on one of the coolest gifts you can get for any Star Wars fan this year. Our favorite one has got to be the classic Luke Skywalker Floor Lamp. At 5’6″ tall, this lamp is actually a little longer than the original laser sword handed to him by Obi-Wan. It shines brightly as an accent light to any fan cave and it just looks freakin cool. Seriously, from the base to the ‘saber’, this lamp features excellent detail, based on the original lightsaber. It really feels more like a prop replica than a new piece of home decor. It doesn’t matter if you are light or dark side here. Everyone who loves Star Wars will love this floor lamp.

If you liked Picnic Time’s Mickey and Minnie Picnic Basket for someone on your gift list, then you should also take a look at their picnic blanket totes. They come in multiple Disney styles as well as your favorite hockey teams and it beats the standard blanket or sheet that most people usually bring for an afternoon in the park. What makes it special is that the blanket has a soft side for sitting and a water-resistant side that helps keeps your butts from getting wet. Nothing ruins a picnic more than ants and soggy bottoms. While this blanket tote can’t protect you from the ants, it does a great job of giving you a soft, dry place to enjoy your picnic!

If you have a Star Wars fan on your gift list who likes to spend a lot of time outside, this picnic table is perfect. it folds flat into a large briefcase and then quickly comes together (it took us about 20 seconds to set it up) into a full picnic table with seating for 2-4. Also, look at the design on it, it’s like the Death Star Trapper Keeper cover that we would have killed for as a kid. It’s the vastness of space, with the Death Star right there! Sure, it might not be a good table to get your Jedi friends, but anyone who can appreciate a little taste of the Dark Side is going to love this one! There one thing you should know about this picnic table before you buy. It has a maximum weight capacity of 250 lbs per seat, so this might not be the best gift for your larger friends. I weigh 200 lbs and felt perfectly safe on it, but you know your friends and family best.

If you need a gift for the Whovian in your life, you aren’t limited to bow ties and Sonic Screwdrivers (though there’s nothing wrong with that). One of our top pics for Dr. Who fans this year are these great 6″ ceramic bowls from Vandor. They all have the Doctor Who logo on the outside and a Dalek on the inside! The bowls are perfect for anything from cereal to soup, to custard for your fish fingers. Best of all, they are both dishwasher and microwave safe! The set comes with four bowls and we absolutely love them!

We love using Bento Boxes and we love giving them as gifts. They are just so handy (and adorable). One of our favorites this year is Vandor’s Charlie Brown Bento. It beats most others because it’s big enough to actually fill with a whole lunch at 7.87 x 5.12 x 3.94″. It’s also got a really handy division on the top compartment for sauces or just to make sure your food doesn’t touch. This gift is perfect under the tree or in the stocking of any Charlie Brown fan. If you do give one, Add a little more fun by filling it up with candy or Christmas cookies before you wrap it up!

If you have a couple who just moved into together this holiday season or a couple who is getting married on your gift list this year, we’ve got to recommend the Harry Potter The Marauders Map 16 Piece Dining Set. The ceramic dinner set includes four dinner plates, four salad plates, four soup bowls, and four mugs. All of them are decked out in gold accent detailing of the Maurader’s map. They look stunning, and we’ve already had every Potter fan we know drooling all over them. The only problem we had when we check out this dinnerware was that we wanted to save them for special occasions, but they were so cool that we couldn’t resist using them every day!

Every kitchen should always have a cookie jar filled with chocolate chip or oatmeal raisin treats, and there are a lot of great ones out there, but we couldn’t find another cookie jar on the market that lets you actually change the face of the jar like Vandor’s Mr. Potato Head cookie jar. It comes with alternate eyes and an alternate mouth that can be swapped out and attached with magnets, so you customize the cookie jar to your personality. Aside from the cool feature, it is so well sculpted that you can swear that you are about to hear John Ratzenberger’s voice every time you lift up his hat to get yourself a treat. If you know anyone who loves Mr. Potato Head, or who can’t stop talking about their excitement about the upcoming release of Toy Story 4, this guy is a no-brainer!

If there’s one thing that fans can agree on about Star Wars: The Last Jedi, it is that the Porgs are adorable! It is no surprise that they’ve spawned an entire mini-franchise worth of merchandise. One thing we didn’t think we’d ever see, however, was a teapot in the shape of a porg! This new teapot from Vandor is one of the cutest and grumpiest ceramic porgs that has ever crossed our path and we love it! It measures in at 1 x 4.7 x 6.9″ h, and it is big enough to hold several cups of tea or hot water. Real Porgs are actually closer to 10″ tall, but then you wouldn’t have anyplace for your teacup to go. In all seriousness, this is one of the most unique and oddball teapots that we’ve come across in a long time. If you’ve got a Star Wars fan who loves tea or any tea drinker who likes to get a little weird, this is perfect for them!

Before you ask, No. This is not a trap. This is an honest to goodness, over-sized mug of your favorite Mon-Calamarion. Given that he was robbed of a hero’s death in Star Wars: The Last Jedi, it seems only fitting that he be memorialized in some way. And, if you are gonna do it, why not do it while sipping a hot beverage out of his amazingly sculpted and detailed head? There is one thing you might want to consider before you buy this mug for certain lefties. The handle placement on this mug is really designed for right-handed Star Wars fans. If you pick this mug up with your left hand, you will have a little bit of a tricky time taking a sip. You should still get it for lefties, just make sure you tell them they need to pick Ackbar up with their right.

Everyone should have a fancy salt and pepper shaker set. They are an important part of any big celebratory meal, whether it’s the holidays or just a dinner party with some friends. If you have a fan of Disney Princesses, or specifically of Beauty and the Beast, you need to check out Vandor’s Beauty and The Beast Sculpted Ceramic Salt & Pepper Set. The well-sculpted set features the titular characters from the classic Disney film in a pose taken from movie’s iconic ballroom scene. The only downside is that people will have too much fun making them dance to hear you when you ask them to pass the pepper!

The Star Wars Darth Vader 3D Mini Fridge is a great gift for any Star Wars fan who needs a little extra something to show their love of everyone’s favorite Sith Lord in their dorm, office, or home. At 11″ tall x 7 1/2″ wide x 10″ deep, this sculpted mini-fridge is the perfect size to bring a six-pack of soda down to as cold as 45 degrees, but it can also be used to keep food warm at a temp of up to 145 degrees! I guess it just depends if you’d rather deal with Vader’s icy heart or, searing hot rage. This mini fridge is also great on the go, as you can plug it into a traditional outlet or into your car! It’s foldable handle definitely makes carrying it to the car a whole lot easier. Oh, and we can’t forget to mention that Vader’s eyes light up. What better way to scare your roommate away from stealing your snacks?

When you take a sip from this mug, are you tasting what is inside of it, or is the mug tasting you? That’s the biggest reason we wanted to recommend this new 20 oz T-Rex Mug from Vandor and National Geographic. It’s the perfect vessel to drink from when you are trying to work up the courage and the caffeine buzz to get moving at the start of your workday. Anyone who loves the Jurassic Park films or is just a fan of dinosaurs is going to love this mug!

C is for cookie and that’s good enough for us! Vandor’s Sesame Street Cookie Monster Sculpted Ceramic Cookie Jar is probably the most appropriate cookie jar that anyone could ever have in on their kitchen countertop. Along with being a great likeness of the world’s biggest cookie fan, this 11″ tall cookie jar is big enough to hold enough cookies to satisfy even the hungriest monster. One of the things we really loved about this cookie jar is that the lid (cookie monster’s head) has a silicone gasket attached where it meets with the base of the cookie jar. This helps make sure that all your tasty treats stay fresh until you’ve eaten every last crumb, Om nom, nom, nom!

The Death Star is such an iconic part of the Star Wars universe that they’ve pretty much built the thing three times (if you count The Force Awakens’ Starkiller Base). What better way to help commemorate the most explodable weapon in movie history than with a version of their blueprints that can help prevent you from getting watermarks on your table. This nine-piece set has the blueprints of a different level of the Death Star on every glass coaster. The coolest thing about these coasters though isn’t even the individual coasters. When you stack them on top of each other, you create your own mini Death Star… just stay away from the exhaust port!

If there’s one thing that most holiday parties are sadly lacking, it is Batman serving platters. This ceramic,14″ x 10″ x 1″ Batman Insignia platter is the absolute coolest we could find. It’s not just another piece of plastic. It is ceramic and it’s both dishwasher and microwave safe. Imagine serving up Christmas cookies or pigs in a blanket to guests at your holiday parties on this bad boy. We can see year-round possibilities for this serving tray, so will anyone lucky enough to find that you’ve left it for them under the tree.

These Hogwarts spice jars are a must in any geeky kitchen, or even just on the desk of your favorite Harry Potter fan. The ceramic jars are just under 4″ tall with their lids on and each hold just under 1.5 oz of spices, potions, or whatever you want to stash in them. For us, there are two things that stand out and make these jars a great gift. First, they’ve each got the symbol of one of the Hogwarts houses on them: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Slytherin, and Ravenclaw. The second thing we loved about these jars is that they are more than just cute. They’ve got great cork stoppers on them and they really are perfect for keeping your herbs and spices fresh!

Coasters are always a great gift. Everyone needs them because no one wants water rings on their tables. We loved these Harry Potter Stone Coasters for a couple of reasons. First, we loved the design. Each Coaster features a different Potter-inspired design that is instantly recognizable to fans. Second, we loved that they were just stone coasters. Each coaster has a cork backing to make sure they don’t slip on the table or scratch any delicate surfaces.

The Anyware smart adapter is a great present for anyone from the friend or family member who is just getting curious about how to make their home a little smarter all the way to the smart home experts. We loved how simple the Anywhere was to set up. All you had to do is plug it into an existing light socket with an attached LED bulb. Then, just pair it with your app and you are on your way. It gives you a way to control that light through the app, but it does a lot more than that. it can set it to turn on when it detects sound, or even just at random to scare away people who are casing your home for a robbery. It helps you monitor your home’s temperature and it even helps you save energy by shutting off the light when no one is around. For less than $60, this is a great gift to introduce someone to the wonders of smart-home living.

If you’ve got a Super Mario Bros fan in your life, you now have a super gift idea for them. The Mario Chain Chomp lamp brings one of the most iconic bad guys in the whole video game franchise to life in an 18 3/4″ tall, LED lamp that perfectly re-creates the Chain Chomp all the way down to the welded steel chain. It’s an excellent desk lamp, task lamp, or as an excellent accent in your game room or man cave! Also, the head of the lamp can be positioned to wherever you like!

That’s right, you can pretty much build the entire bridge of the USS Enterprise entirely out of Garden Gnomes!
