I bet you’re busy with the hustle of the holidays, so today I’m sharing some awesome vegan gifts that you can order online. With this list, you won’t have to spend hours fighting crowds at the mall. Just make a few clicks, have some vegan vino and relax.
1. Go Vegan Tote Bag
This natural canvas tote bag is so cool! I wouldn’t mind having one for myself – hint, hint 😉 $17.99 from Cafe Press.
2. Vegan Flower Power Mug
This lovely mug is is part of the VeganDish line of “vegan-centric” pottery made by Jeannette Zeis. Just a basic mug that proudly says it all. VEGAN!!! Cute little flower stamps, too. $24 from vesselsandwares.
3. Good Luck Elephant Sweatshirt
Do you know someone who needs a little luck? Why not get her this super soft and cozy pullover sweatshirt adorned with a good luck elephant (an elephant with its trunk raised means good luck). Not only will she love it, but you’ll be honoring elephants who, due to poaching, need a lot of luck too. $50 from herbivoreclothing.com.
4. Allison’s Gourmet Peppermint Bark
Crisp peppermint candy crushed and sprinkled onto a bed of vegan, fair-trade, organic rich dark chocolate – yum! Does this sound good to you uncle David? $15.00 from Allison’s Gourmet.
5. Give the Gift of Life!
Any animal lover would appreciate the gift of animal adoption. Farm Sanctuary’s Adopt-A-Farm-Animal Project gives you the opportunity to sponsor a rescued farm animal. By adopting a farm animal, you’ll help provide their food, shelter, and veterinary costs, and you’ll show your opposition to farm animal cruelty. Adoptions can be made in a gift-recipient’s name and the recipient will receive information about their adopted “pet” including a picture, his/her story, and even details about visiting their animal. $10 to $50 per month for 1 year from Farm Sanctuary.
6. Quick-Fix Vegan Cookbook: Healthy Homestyle Meals in 30 Minutes or Less
Since I post a lot of recipes on my blog, people assume I love to cook. I don’t. I cook because I want to feed my family delicious healthy vegan food. The faster and easier I can do this, the better. If you know a lazy vegan cook like me, I can tell you that she or he will appreciate this quick-fix cookbook. From $8.63 on Amazon.com.
7. Vegucated DVD
Vegucated is a documentary that follows three New Yorker’s who agree to go vegan for six weeks to learn what it’s all about. I love this movie – it’s what prompted me to go vegan. If you know anyone, vegan or not, who hasn’t seen it, then please put this under the tree for him or her. $19.99 from getvegucated.com.
In case you didn’t know, not all wines are vegan. Many are processed with egg proteins, milk proteins, fish bladders, bone marrow and lobster or crab shells. I’m a novice when it comes to vegan wines, but my blogger buddy at Ohh So Fattening highly recommends Frey wines. If you want to learn more about vegan wine, check out Barnivore and On Vegan Wine by Beautycalypse. $10 – $20 from Frey vineyards.
9. Let it Be Vegan Leather Wallet
I’m supposed to be shopping for others, but I keep finding stuff I want. This wallet is SO cute! Any chica in your life would be happy to receive this. $29.50 from Natural Life.
10. Vegan Charm Bracelet
This is a charming gift that is sure to please animal-lovers of all ages. I love the quip about spare ribs – you tell ’em pig! $18 from Etsy.
Vegan T-Shirt
An Average Vegan Dude just told me about this T-shirt, and it’s SO cool that I had to add it to the list. $25.95 from Vegan Essentials.

Oh my goodness – I want that owl wallet! I’m obsessed with owls and this would be perfect to add to my collection. Thanks for sharing, Celeste. Great post, as always.
I think you need to “hint” someone to get you that wallet chica! It really is a find! 🙂
Wonderful ideas, thank you, dear!
My pleasure!! 🙂
That wallet! ❤
I know! 🙂
Hi Celeste 😀 I love the pig……does it fly ? 😉 xox
He is a cutie pie, but he can’t fly. The only time pigs can fly is after they’ve been turned into bacon (then they’re flying in heaven). Oh, that was a heavy-handed vegan comment – hehe! 🙂
hehe 😎 Have a lovely day my friend
You too! 🙂
Ohhhhh so many wonderful ideas Celeste! Would you mind forwarding this list to my hubby ; )
Thanks for sharing!
No problem chica! 🙂
Rescue Chocolate (vegan) also makes a nice gift and it’s for a good cause. 🙂
Thanks for sharing that! I’m gonna write a vegan stocking stuffer post too, so I’ll put Rescue Chocolate on that post! 🙂
That’s awesome. Thanks C! 🙂
Awesome:)
Thanks for stopping by chica! 🙂
Great list! I just love that coffee mug!
The coffee mug seems to be a favorite! The woman who makes the cups has a whole line of vegan ceramics that are just beautiful. 🙂
Love all of these – especially the coffee cup! No matter how full my cupboards get, I always need more!
Me too!!!! 🙂
Celeste! I think you just broke my heart. Not all wine is vegan? I’m crushed. Crushed I say. 😦
I hate being the bearer of bad news!! I was crushed when I found this out too. There are a lot of vegan wines out there, however. The Barnivore link above has a great list. Trader Joe’s also has a lot of vegan wines. Here’s a link for that: http://dontfearthevegan.com/2012/05/30/worthy-of-sharing-trader-joes-vegan-beers-wines/
If you discover any great vegan wines, please let me know. I haven’t tried many yet. Sorry to be the one to break it to ya chica 😦
Thank you for the link and I will absolutely let you know what I find that works! Wine is my one vice…so I will definitely have to find some vegan options!
I love the stuff at Herbivore Clothing! I have their Love Life (No Matter Whose) hoodie
at the top of my wish list this year!
Ohhh, I love that one too. You better be good for the rest of this year 😉
I’ll try!
Wow. These are great gifting ideas! Love them all.
Thanks for reading chica! 🙂
I will add one to your list 🙂

This shirt turns heads everywhere I go ….
I just checked out the t-shirt and I love, love, love it!! Thanks so much for sharing, I’ve added it to the post. 🙂
It’s really well done. People always come up to me when I am wearing it and ask questions….Not only is the message great but it is made well..
Thanks Celeste! If I don’t get any for Christmas.. maybe I’ll have to treat myself 🙂
That’s my plan too! 🙂
Great collection Celeste …I want to go for the Go Vegan Tote Bag…It,s really nice one ! 🙂
Isn’t that great! Thanks for reading chica – I appreciate you!! 🙂
aaaw, the “I don’t have any spare ribs” got me laughing with a tear in my eye.
beautiful selection, celeste, as always. your compilations are lighthearted and fun *smoooooooch*
also thanks for including my ‘educational’ post.
I bought vegan prosecco, red and white for my event last week (http://beautycalypse.com/2013/12/01/a-merry-merry-season-start-international-giveaway/) where they wines were all the craze! people kept asking me where I got them and why and how… allergy sufferers said they never experienced wine that was so light and not giving them any sensations of heavyness, or headache. it was very hard to keep a straight face and not jump and yell things like “plant-based food rules!!! gotcha!!!” :’D
That’s wonderful!! I wish I could say the same about the wines I served for Thanksgiving. I printed a list of vegan wines available at Trader Joe’s and chose two (one from Castle Rock and from Louis Jadot). Neither was guest-worthy. Oh well, Trader Joe’s has many more for me to try and I’m confident that at least one of them will be a gem.
Oh, and I was happy to include your wine post – your posts rock chica!! 🙂
the trouble with vegan wines is that it takes really good winemakers to make great vintages. otherwise – as you said – vegan wines are likely to become not-so-guest-worthy. maybe you know a great winemaker in california who’s likely to embark on a journey of taste AND kindness? 🙂 I like just asking people! “why don’t you try make your wines vegan?” 😉
hugs from berlin
the, not theY wines 😉
That mug ❤ 🙂
I know! 🙂
See, here’s the thing about Christmas shopping. I want all those things! I’m sort of a “one for you, two for me” kind of shopper. I think maybe that defeats the “giving” purpose of the holidays. Really! These are all great!
Haha – you kill me chica!! Don’t worry, you’re not alone in going on “one for you, two for me” shopping sprees. Besides, we do need to treat ourselves once in a while. Am I right? 🙂
I suppose it depends how we define “once in a while.” I do think Santa wants us to be happy 🙂
The 30 min. Cookbook looks good for a lazy cook like me who wants to cook healthy meals.
Hey Jeanne! Who wants to cook when you can go to yard sales! Anyway, this does look like a fab cookbook. Let’s see what Santa brings us this year girlfriend. 🙂
Great list, the book looks good x
If I don’t get it for Christmas, I’m gonna buy myself that book. If I can get a healthy vegan dinner on the table in 30 minutes, then I’m a happy chica! Thanks for reading! 🙂
Good plan 😉
What a wonderful collection. I SO want that wallet!! 😀
Me too!!!!!!!!! 🙂
I think we should write to Santa 😀
I think I am in agreement with others…that owl wallet is SUPER adorable! Want!
Hehe – it would be funny if all of us bloggers met for dinner one day and we all had the same wallet. 🙂
Ha ha! That would be cute.
I meant to tell you when I read this the first time, how much I appreciate that you included animals in it! Being named “Robin” I have an affinity for birds. I have also, found out zoos appreciate having your old pumpkins, melons, and other things from the garden donated for their wildlife to enjoy. I love the owl wallet and also, the elephant sweatshirt. I have another suggestion for a gift to help others, give to the local animal humane society different products, like cat or dog food, kitty litter, or volunteer to walk the animals!
Hey Robin! Thanks so much for your thoughts chica! What a great idea to give the local animal humane society items they can use – I’d never considered that before. That would be a great gift to help animals. Of course, adopting an animal would also be a great gift for the animal. I’m not big on giving animals as gifts, however. I think that adopting an animal is a serious commitment, and someone receiving an animal as a gift may not be ready to do what needs to be done to take care of the animal. You are appreciated girlfriend! 🙂
I love the Let it Be Vegan Leather Wallet! I’ve added it to my Christmas wishlist. This is such a great post 😀
I hope you get the wallet Jenny!! I really want it too. I guess we’ll have to be very good for the next few weeks. 😉
That is the cutest pig ever. Love that book and what they are doing there. Cool ideas here!
Thanks chica!! I love your comments girlfriend!! 🙂
Oooh, I love the wallet! Also, I’ve been crushing on that lucky elephant sweater since I saw it on Instagram, love it! Great list of ideas Celeste.
PS~I also really like Robin’s suggestions of donating items or time to local animal shelters. I never knew that zoos accepted items either, great information.
I tell you, a lot of us are gonna be walking around with that wallet! And yes, Robin had a great suggestion. I’d never even thought of it before! 🙂
Really great list, Celeste! I love the wallet, the design looked familiar then I realized my son’s owl pillow is from the same company. He has the Let It Be Boho Owl pillow, so cute. 🙂
Hey Sophia! I’m gonna have to check out the other stuff that company has. I just love that owl design. So, so cute! 🙂
Such great gifts!
Great stuff.

Great suggestions, Celeste!
We got ourselves the T-Shirts “VEGAN” from Vegan Essesntials last the St.Valentine’s day )))
It is a crowd-stopper ! (:
One gets so much attention! Everyone will ask you about veganism whether you are in the line to a movie, on the farmer’s market, in a bus or in a restaurant… they will complement you or will just stare at your back reading, or turn their heads at you (: some will even start debating which is fun too (: that gives so much opportunities to spread the word
and also…. if you know a single vegan friend – give it to her/him – it is a total ‘pick-up’ thing, hehe (:
We love the first bag too (: ..any ‘vegan’ bag (:
cheers,
S&H
