It's that time of the year again. The time where have literally no idea what to get any of your family, friends, or coworkers. But, like the bearded guy in red or the pointy eared lad on a shelf, I am back again to make your gifting dreams come true. 

Welcome to Blake's Coolest Things 2022—A Gift Guide That GIVES. This year, I am doing things a little differently. Instead of one massive blog post breaking down my top picks for everyone on your list, I've divided BCT into 8 cool sections—shouts to Hanukkah.

I know getting hit over the head with one generic "these are the best gifts" list can be unhelpful so this year's BCT breaks things down by coolness, luxury, sustainability, small business, customization, and last minute finds. 

Looking for a taste of what each list offers? I've compiled a top 3 picks per category below.
